What a dreadful act of vandalism.
😥😥😥😥

That's nothing. Christians are the most persecuted people on the planet but the media makes us think its Muslims.
Just another sign of a morally bankrupt society.
Blind rage and animal instinct, but on the other hand most person on that side are atheists so it's not really a surprise how violence progress.
This is why I love Christianity, no riot or violent protest cos our God can fight and punish those that offend him. Besides, Jesus Christ is in heaven, we can talk to him even from our houses and he'll answer us...
Hmm
Can we hazard a guess who did it, I think we know...
HHepplewhite The Devil walks amongst us. Jesus said, 'Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.' Luke 23:34
Maybe they just liked the statue a lot and accidentally dropped it when they were trying to pose for selfies with it.
