9. Well we already know he's a registered asshole- Republican or not...
Talk about an uncompassionate, pathetic waste of a human... May he rot in jail and be charged a huge fine. May he also be forced to put each of those crosses back in place, one by one, and repair all of the ones he has destroyed.

Irony Alert- Larry Northern on Larry Lynch (Sheriff)
http://www.baylor.edu/lariat/news.php?action=story&story=15803

Baylor parent and Woodway resident Larry Northern said he decided to support Lynch because he was 'honest, straight-shooting and moral.' Northern said Lynch's favorite saying was, 'Don't do crime because you're going to do the time.'

So I wonder if Lynch walked over to his supporter's cell and said "I told you Larry, don't do crime because you're going to do the time". :rofl:

I mean, I'm *sure* he served his country, and probably lost a lot of friends in battle, and that's why he feels compelled to protest Cindy. :sarcasm:

(e) When more than one item of tangible property, belonging
to one or more owners, is damaged, destroyed, or tampered with in
violation of this section pursuant to one scheme or continuing
course of conduct, the conduct may be considered as one offense, and
the amounts of pecuniary loss to property resulting from the damage
to, destruction of, or tampering with the property may be
