The Satanic Temple

I noticed there wasn't a TST Lemmy community. The Satanic Temple is a modern satanic religion that aims to promote human rights and compassion. Check out their about page on their official website at https://thesatanictemple.com/pages/about-us. Note that this community is not an official affiliation. TST is also separate and not affiliated with the Church of Satan, who have a slightly different viewpoint of what satanism truly is. Dunno what to post in here, but maybe some will search for this and take part. Hello!

Interesting though it's just a mischief charge, if I trashed their Jesus garbage you know DAMN well I'm swimming in hate crime charges.
Not anymore friend, a precedent has been set
If you did it now, wouldn't lawyers be able to use thos case to get you the same punishment?
In Iowa, criminal mischief covers vandalism, and 4th degree criminal mischief means damages between 300-750 dollars. Penalty is up to a year in jail and up to about $2500 in fines if convicted. Since it says he was charged, he wasn't just let off free, he was released pending hearing aka they aren't holding him in jail until then.
