Arson

Sarah Palin's church (Wasila Bible Church) was set ablaze yesterday. Investigators don't know if this is related to her Vice Presidential candidacy, but the trend of church arson fires has spread from the south (where it was usually black churches that were the target) to the west and now into Alaska. A few LDS chapels have had some suspicious fires and some less than suspicious break-ins and offensive grafetti painted on the walls. There is no evidence of a large organization directing these crimes, but one is left to wonder about the type of person who would do such things.
