With bricks through the windows of all their homes. Fuck these racist fucks. They're willing to let black peoples houses burn down for no reason? Yeah fuck them.

Perhaps not just "let". Look up the lady that's been helping him. Her house recently burned down. I didn't dig deep enough to know if anyone has tried to tie it to this particular town, but I'm gonna let them be guilty until proven innocent in this particular case.
