A former Mississippi political candidate is facing criminal charges after a bedazzled statue of Baphomet, a figure associated with the Satanic Temple, was discovered decapitated at the Iowa State Capitol.
Michael Cassidy, 35, a former U.S. Navy pilot, told Fox News that he saw the controversy surrounding the display, which was heavily criticized by Republican politicians like Ron DeSantis, and drove to the Iowa Capitol to see it for himself. He said it hit a “nerve” and went on to destroy it.
…
According to an archived version of his campaign website, Cassidy pushed for a 10-year prison sentence for anyone who destroys a statue in his own state.
I’m sure he expects exactly the same punishment for himself.
This is true Leopards Ate My Face territory.
Not quite lol Leopards Ate My Face is more Turkeys Voting for Christmas, where someone aligns with someone else in spite of the person they’re aligning with clearly not having their interests at heart. Like the vast majority of Trump supporters, or LGBTQ hexbear users supporting Putin.
This is just plain hypocrisy, like “the only moral abortion is my abortion”.

In other parts of the world “turkeys voting for Christmas” is a common saying.

That’s right, the UK has peacocks in its trees instead of turkeys.

As someone who’s never eaten a goose in his life (though I would happily try it, those rude honking bastards), I’ve had turkey on Christmas Eve at relatives. Though it’s often ham.

Surely he’s ideologically consistent
/s if anyone really needs that
Seems like a Perfect setup for a judge to sentence him with. It won’t happen, but it should.
