Wouldn't be surprised if there had been a Tea Party rally (ie Klan meeting) or a Palin book signing being held in West Wheatfield, PA that same night......just saying
Sadly, it doesn't surprise me in the least. Just look at the signs some of the Tea Partiers carry.
Yep it was someone from the tea party. oh lord, what is wrong with you people. Have you looked at the mug shots from Detroit? They are ALL wearing Obama shirts. Who are the real crminals?

And you guys wonder WHY we call YOU racists....we are talking about a family who had a cross burned on their lawn....in West Wheatfield, PA not random mugshots from Detroit.
But I guess that this is part of the typical Obama hatred tactics.

So how does any of what you said relate to Tea Party participants? In your post along with the one I responded to snidely pointed fingers at them like they are inherent criminals. So I felt free to point out who the REAL inherent criminals are.

2. Somone doing it to themselves to call attention or highlight a their cause.
3. People actually believing this crap and being horrible human beings.
I don't know what this particuar story is all about but I hope it gets cleared up and the guilty parties are punished for whatever their reason was for doing it.
Sometimes I wonder if some of these racially-motivated attacks aren't actual liberals trying to make conservatives look bad or feed into the conservative = racist image that liberals have been harping about. A long shot but it is possible with all this anti-conservative rhetoric I've been seeing.
It isnt possible for this to have happened. Why you ask? Because it is alledged to have happened in PA. Which is a northern state that has voted for democrats for years.

democratic northern states dont have racists.
I realize you may be saying this tongue in cheek but racists do come in all political flavors.
Perhaps we need stronger domestic anti-terrorism laws. That's what this activity is - domestic terrorism.
We have them in Texas. It would be called "criminal mischief". No need for yet another federal law. And if the act is committed during the night-time? One can use deadly force to prevent it.
On the main topic, it is likely to come out this was nothing more than a teenage prank. Possibly even by black teenagers. Most of these type crimes are perpetuated by same-race criminals and victim.
WEST WHEATFIELD, Pa., Nov. 18 (UPI) -- Investigators said they were trying to identify the people who lit a cross on the front lawn of a white Pittsburgh-area couple with a black adopted son.
Joe and Mary Walbeck of West Wheatfield told WTAE-TV, Pittsburgh, the family was "hurt" by the cross-burning.
I only have one question. Is WEST WHEATFIELD, Pa. in the SOUTH?
