Pagans holding a ritual at a public park in North Carolina were harassed by Christian demonstrators, one of whom shouted Bible passages during the entire hour-long event. Leaders for the Coven plan to contact legal counsel as to whether or not police officers properly discharged their duties under a state law that prevents the disturbance of religious events.
"I don't remember more than a couple accidental demolitions a year."
