Lil' Devils: Churchgoers Witnesses To Deviant Behavior During Service

SOMERSET COUNTY, Pa. -- Churchgoers at a Somerset County church encountered some devilish behavior during service on Tuesday morning.

Police said that three children -- ages 14, 16 and 17 -- dressed in black gothic/satanic clothing and burst into St. Andrew's Lutheran Church on Main Street, in Boswell Borough, about 9:40 a.m.

The children -- from Stoystown, Acosta and Somerset -- also painted satanic symbols on their faces, police said.

Once inside the church, police said they yelled and screamed profanities and obscene language at the congregation.


Each was charged with harassment and stalking, as well as disorderly conduct.

Aahh...once again 'goths' involved in negative press. Well, in the states at least. In Europe, the articles so far have been all positive!

it's a shame that every time they are wearing black and do something bad they must be goth. I bet those three wouldn't know a goth if she came up and bit them.

And why is that every time it's a goth that means they are a satanist? I'm not a satanist!

And.................

I hate stupid norms.

I agree with you, but there ARE satanists who are goths, too.

Yes, there are Gothic Satanists. There are also Christian Goths, Jewish Goths, Catholic Goths and Goths in probably every religion out there. But people as a whole are too narrow minded to think about things like that. People are sheep. They do, say and think what they are told to.

People should defenitely stop labelling others by their physical appearance. I guess that's a norm, too. I wish I had the power to change that.*sniff*

I yearn for the Good Old Days, when the people who wore black were either Pirates or Ninjas. These 'goth' upstarts are just ruining it!

Pirates didn't wear black. Their clothes wear just so stained from being out to sea for so long that they looked black!

Yarr! Mayhaps ye be right-o, Moonie, but sayest I to thee, those were the days a'right... alas now, there be these yungin scallywags plum full o' ballyhoo and thinkin' t' tell us all 'bout 'emselfs, nary a care to who be listenin' and who be sharpenin' their blades against ones such as 'em.

Metaphorically, of course.

ai, by the time someone burst into a church here, it will probebly not reach the news, if it did, journalists would do (at least a little) a search for background information.

but then again this is holland, we are supost to be openminded or so we are told.
