Church arson
text:
Church arson is burning or attempting to burn religious property, because empty churches are soft targets, racial hatred, pyromania, prejudice against certain religious beliefs, greed, or as part of communal violence or dissent or anti-religious sentiment. In the United States, arson of black churches was common in the south during the civil rights era. Arson continued in the 1990s, damaging many black churches. Congress passed the Church Arson Prevention Act in 1996, and President Bill Clinton
