“Kill THE CATHLICS”

Hateful graffiti painted on wall at St. Boniface Church in Anaheim


Graffiti reading “Kill THE CATHLICS” spray-painted on a wall of St. Boniface Catholic Church in Anaheim was expected to be removed today, the Orange County Register reports. The story appeared under the headline, “Hate message spray-painted at Catholic church.”

“Police were called Tuesday morning to investigate a report that "Kill THE CATHLICS!" was spray-painted on a wall near the entrance of St. Boniface Catholic Church,” said a brief story in the Register published yesterday. “About 7:15 a.m., police were sent to the church at 120 N. Janss St. regarding the incident on the west side of the church, police said."

“Parishioners attending mass this morning at Saint Boniface Catholic Church experienced a hateful message spray painted on the church's west wall,” read a caption under a photo depicting the graffiti.

“The misspelled graffiti was expected to be removed Wednesday,” the Register reported. “Parishioners have been asking what happened, said Maria Alcala, a secretary at the church. Alcala said police took an incident report and will review surveillance video to determine when the incident occurred and to see if they can determine who did it.”

California Catholic Daily reported on Monday that Holy Family Catholic Church in Glendale has been forced to tighten security measures after a thief has repeatedly broken into collection boxes used by parishioners there to donate money to the needy – the latest in a series of crimes against Catholic churches in California.

READER COMMENTS

The devil hates the Catholic Church because It teaches the truth and respects life! Expect more of this outrage until God intervenes and corrects the conscience of the world!
