Christian 'looters' destroy sex shops in New Orleans
NEW ORLEANS — Days after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, zealous Christians from several Southern ministries converged on the Big Easy to destroy every sex shop they could find.
"If looters can rob electronics stores, then we can tear down satanic businesses," said Melvin Smith, a minister from Christ Cornerstone Ministries in Tupelo, Miss. His team of 19 Bible institute students methodically gutted a sex shop in the French Quarter, burning the contents in the street. They left a note posted on the wall: "They will call you the City of the Lord - Isaiah 60:14."

John, What a sad note, Christians even if we don't like something should still obey the laws.
i love the lark news folks, scary piece is that there was probably a conversation somewhere at some time that actually entertained a thought like that.
James, Thanks,I had missed that goes to show I should read more carefully.
Yeah, the thing is, this story is not far from conceivable reality.
Free market, free choices. I have no problem with that. Now when Christians burn down a strip club or porn store or anything else, then I'll stand against it. It is the initiation of force which is evil.
