Satanists Claim Theft Is Hate Crime

[WKUHilltopper]

If anyone understands the concept of hate, it would be satan and his followers.

These folks are in desperate need of prayer and Jesus.

OK, I've seen enough now--I'm ready to go. I'm just completely astounded what goes on in this country anymore.

Satanists Claim Theft Is Hate Crime

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Colo. (CBS4)- A local couple who claim to be Satanists believe they’re a victim of a hate crime and were targeted because of their religious beliefs.

Someone cut down a political poster stating, “VOTE SATAN” from their front porch where they live in Mountain View, a suburb of Denver.

“We are Satanists… Satanists,” said Luigi Bellaviste.

Luigi and Angie Bellaviste belong to the Church of Satan. They even have a Satanic Bible in their home.

The couple is upset because a poster they had hanging from their front porch was recently cut down.

It wasn’t very popular with some neighbors.

“Everybody that sees that sign says, ‘What is going on with those people?,’” said neighbor Mary Morasco.

The couple’s home and yard are decorated with items like a Christmas tree that has been painted black, skulls and the number 666. They believe the cutting down of the poster was an attack on their religious beliefs.

“I feel like we’re being treated unfairly because it’s not a so-called mainstream religion,” said Luigi.

“I know of many people who have the Virgin Mary and tons of Jesus memorabilia ‘I Love Jesus’ and what is the difference?” said Angie.

Despite their opinion on the couple’s choice of lawn ornaments, most of the Bellaviste’s neighbors are on their side.

Just a goofy thought here. I get those often too lol.
If you are a satanist then you don't follow anything that God says. That would be against everything you believe in right? So that would mean you don't believe in the 10 cammandments either right? Ah so theft is not a problem right???

ahhh ok, I confess. I stole the sign and I was the second shooter on the grassy knoll.

Ok, where do I start... first of all, satan is known as a thief, so wasn't whoever stole their sign on the same side?

It is also safe to say that satan promotes hate, so how can a satanist complain about a hate crime? After all, isn't crime also one of satan's specialties? Hate certainly is...

Finally, I guess I can't complain I have or ever had the neighbor from hell! They live in Colorado, and I most certainly don't!

I think I'll go count my blessings about now!
