"Support Your Local Gunfighter is the best thing to happen to law enforcement since Vic Mackey."

    The idiotic opinions expressed here are mine and mine alone, and in no way reflect the views of the Philadelphia Police Department. I mean, if they did, this town would be in a heap of trouble, right?

Police Break Up Fistfight At Jesus' Tomb

Apparently, these morons thought the answer to WWJD? is "Punch everyone in the face then fight the cops."

JERUSALEM - Dozens of Greek and Armenian priests and worshipers exchanged blows at one of Christianity's holiest shrines on Orthodox Palm Sunday, and used palm fronds to pummel police who tried to break up the brawl.

The fight came amid growing rivalry over religious rights at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, built over the site in Jerusalem where tradition says Jesus was buried and resurrected.

It erupted when Armenian clergy kicked out a Greek priest from their midst, pushed him to the ground and kicked him, according to witnesses.

When police intervened, some worshipers hit them with the palm fronds they were holding for the religious holiday. The Eastern Orthodox churches, including the Armenians and Greek Orthodox, follow a different calendar from Western Christians and celebrate Easter next Sunday. (H/T - Yahoo!)

Eh, what? I have two questions here:
  1. Did any of these priests give a damn that they were "throwing down" on the site of the Resurrection?
  2. How did the police fill out their injury reports afterwards? Did any of them feel any shame when writing in, "Assaulted with palm fronds?"
