Touched by an angel...and in the head

From the Queens Gazette:

Police arrested a 23-year-old Queens man on January 24 after he head-butted a statue of an angel outside a Woodhaven home.

Cops said a tenant at the home on 97th Avenue and 97th Street spotted Marvin Jarvis at about 2 p.m. on January 24 as he walked up to the statue and shook its foundation, then head-butted it and walked away raving at the statue.

Jarvis admitted to cops who responded to a 911 call that he was angry at the statue when he attacked it. “Yeah, it’s a stupid thing,” Jarvis told the cops. “I did it.”

Jarvis was charged with criminal mischief and harassment at his arraignment at Queens Criminal Court.

Or when the house down the block from me on Jay Avenue is getting robbed in broad daylight and the alarm is ringing the neighbors call the cops and they don't show up till after midnight...

Maybe he was an art critic.

He didn't even break the statue?

Just another case of FAKE Americans HATING freedom. He didn't break the statue and the cops need arrests to keep their jobs.

Ridiculous waste of time and money.

Reminds me of an old joke:

An italian comes in every day to pray to a huge statue of Saint Joseph.

Each time he gets more and more agitated at not receiving his desires until he finally starts shaking a fist in the statue's face, saying "If you don't help me, I'll break your head."

A frightened priest replaces the statue with a smaller one, whereupon at his next visit, the man comes in and says, "Hey Kid, where's your pop?"
