8/9/12: Statement on arrest of Southern California Chick-fil-A vandal

August 9, 2012 -- For Immediate Release

Southern California Chick-fil-A Vandal Arrested
Thomasson: "This criminal needs to be punished to the full extent of the law"

Sacramento, California -- A statewide organization dedicated to moral virtues for the common good is glad that the intolerant, homosexual activist that vandalized a Chick-fil-A in Torrance, California, has finally been arrested.

This week, SaveCalifornia.com's Facebook friends phoned the Torrance Police Department to urge them to enforce the law and arrest self-confessed "artist" Manny Castro to deter copycat crimes against moral business owners.

"This guy's so deluded, he believes right is wrong and wrong is right," said SaveCalifornia.com President Randy Thomasson. "He vandalizes a Chick-fil-A, then claims it was 'art,' not crime. He claims to be a Christian, yet goes against the Bible's clear teaching that stealing is wrong, homosexuality is sin, and marriage is only for a man and a woman.

"This criminal needs to be punished to the full extent of the law. Vandalism of a gay bar would be prosecuted as a 'hate crime.' At the very least, authorities should make an example of this outlaw so Christian-owned businesses aren't subjected to copycat vandalism."
