White Trash Jesus Faces Crucifixion for Holy Fire Today

A Trabuco Canyon resident who last week allegedly threatened “this place will burn” is scheduled to appear in court today on charges of igniting the Holy Fire that started there Monday and has so far destroyed 14 structures, forced evacuations of schools and neighborhoods and burned 6,200 acres of land in Orange and Riverside counties.

It remained only 5 percent contained as of early this morning.

Forrest Gordon Clark was arrested in his camo underwear Tuesday on suspicion of two counts of felony arson, one felony count of threat to terrorize and a misdemeanor count of resisting arrest. The 51-year-old was being held on $1 million bail pending his arraignment in Orange County Superior Court today.

This just in from the Orange County District Attorney’s office: “Clark was charged and is scheduled to be arraigned today for one felony count each of aggravated arson of five or more inhabited structures, arson of inhabited property, arson of forest, criminal threats, two felony counts of resisting and deterring an executive officer, and a sentencing enhancement for arson burning multiple structures. The maximum sentence is life in state prison.”

Before Clark’s inevitable crucifixion, it is important to know that this has all the makings of a classic blame-a-patsy conspiracy. It began with the location where the fire started–Holy Jim Canyon–being shortened to “Holy Fire” for easier consumption by the media, hashtag creators and religious fundamentalists hellbent on blaming the massive blaze on God’s wrath over California loving “dem gays.”

But as we know, that biblical God is kind of a slash and burn personality. Sporadically. I guess he's cool with the trumpsters separating brown babies from their parents though.
