Michael Brown Sr.’s Church Burned In Ferguson, Pastor Suspects White Supremacists

Posted by | November 26, 2014 08:30 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics Top Stories


The Missouri church where Michael Brown’s father was baptized over the weekend was torched on Monday night and the pastor suspects white supremacists wanted to punish him for his support of the Brown family.

Rev. Carlton Lee told NBC News that he believes Flood Christian Church was targeted because he has repeatedly called for the arrest of Officer Darren Wilson, who fatally shot unarmed teenager Michael Brown, but was not indicted by a grand jury.

“I’m very vocal in regards to the Michael Brown case,” Lee said.

Lee has participated in rallies and press conferences with Michael Brown Sr.

While about a dozen buildings in Ferguson burned, the church which is on a section of where other buildings were unscathed, went up in flames.

“The police called me and told me the church was on fire,” Lee said. “I was in complete disbelief. I didn’t think anyone would set a church on fire.”

“I feel like one of my children has died. I put my blood, my sweat, my tears into this church, getting this church built from the ground up. To see that it was taken down in a few minutes is really heartbreaking,” he said.

After telling Michael Brown Sr. about the extensive damage done to the church, he said, “He was just devastated again.”

“Sunday, we do the baptism, Monday, the church is one fire. It just doesn’t add up,” he said.

Brown has pledged to help in repairing the damage.

“We rebuild,” Lee said. “We do not stop.”

    If this were the only building torched Monday night, he might have a better case.

    Show me vidoe of the Pastor saying he believes it was white supremacists. Thugs are the ones burning down the buildings in their own neighborhood so I am going to venture to guess that it was thugs who burnt down the church.

    Big Fat Liar. I didn’t see any hordes of whites burning building in ferguson. This pastor is a sham bearring false witness against thy neighbor; and spreading gossip and lies. He has sinned against the Lord Most High and should repent knowing that others will accept his gossip and spread the rumors as truth as well. Repent the day of the Lord will be coming soon for sure.

    YES he said this and was speaking about it in many other churches, no vid but eye witness accounts of the speeches and NBC quoted interviews with him
