Well, we had quite the showdown at the "Black Mass" Satanist event in Kansas this week as it had been building for a while.

We brought you news about this "Black Mass" anti-Christian troll event in earlier weeks (here and here) and, who could have guessed, the thing turned into a violent clash.

Here's a different angle.

The tweet above from Protestia includes a factual error. While there were Catholic protesters present, the man who tried to grab away the incantation and received the knuckle sandwich was a protestant Christian, Marcus Schroeder.

From the Sentinel:

Michael Stewart, the president of the Satanic Grotto, tried to perform a Black Mass inside the Kansas State Capitol and punched Marcus Schroeder, a Christian who intervened to stop him ...

Stewart was surrounded by local media and Christian counter-protesters as he started to perform the Black Mass, even though he was previously barred from performing the ritual inside the Kansas State Capitol and was restricted to conducting the event outside of the building.

As we reported previously, Stewart was granted permission to perform his Satanic ritual outside the capitol, but not inside. But when he went inside anyways, things got heated.

This is when he gave Marcus Schroeder two clean shots to the face after Marcus attempted to take the script from Stewarts hand.

Online records showed that Stewart, 42, was jailed briefly Friday afternoon on suspicion of disorderly conduct and having an unlawful assembly, then released on $1,000 bond.

The Kansas Highway Patrol, which provides security at the Statehouse, said two others who entered the building with Stewart also were arrested for unlawful assembly, Jocelyn Frazee, 32, and Sean Anderson, 50. Frazee had no bond set; information for Anderson was not available online.

Schroeder was also arrested for disorderly conduct himself for his righteous indignation to Stewart's Satanic prayer that had already been banned from the capitol building.

Schroeder "stole" the man's script, which was illegal, but he also put an end to a blasphemous ceremony, so I guess he chose to obey God rather than man.
