What is with people? We've seen this with women too in college dorms. There's not enough real villains out there?

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (CBS4)– A Colorado Springs man was arrested after police believe he left racist messages outside a church.

Vincent Broughton, 44, who is black, is facing charges for committed a bias-motivated crime and disorderly conduct.

The signs were posted outside the New Covenant church that is predominately attended by African Americans. One sign references the KKK. Another reads, “Black men beware, you are the target.”

The messages had the congregation on edge.

“We locked our doors this morning, so we were inside, but it shouldn’t be that way. You shouldn’t have to lock your doors in the church, it’s just… I’m speechless,” said Pastor Roland Joyner.

Police said Broughton admitted to posting the flyers but did not explain why he targeted the church.

That's the problem of the fear society we live in now. The days, "We have naught to fear but fear itself". That's combined with our existent problem of blaming inanimate objects for the crimes of people.

Maybe he wasn't actually "targeting the church", but trying to warn them of what is coming.

Maybe he wasn't actually "targeting the church", but trying to warn them of what is coming.

Or maybe he was trying to pump up some trash that wasn't going to happen but helped his side with their whining .
