A fire was also set at a ballot box in Portland, Oregon where three ballots were damaged.

"The Portland Police Bureau reported that officers and firefighters responded to a fire in one ballot drop box at about 3:30 a.m. and determined an incendiary device had been placed inside. Multnomah County Elections Director Tim Scott said a fire suppressant inside the drop box protected nearly all the ballots; only three were damaged, and his office planned to contact those voters to help them obtain replacement ballots.

A few hours later, across the Columbia River in Vancouver, television crews captured footage of smoke pouring out of a ballot box at a transit center. Vancouver is the biggest city in Washington's 3rd Congressional District, the site of what is expected to be one of the closest U.S. House races in the country, between first-term Democratic Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez and Republican challenger Joe Kent."

The All Saints Ukrainian Orthodox Parish of Bellis, part of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada under the Patriarchate of Constantinople, was reduced to a charred foundation and pile of ash after suspects used an accelerant to torch the historic building, according to the RCMP and fire investigation company Firestorm, reports Global Storm. The arson occurred during a series of crimes that began with vehicle thefts in the area. Smoky Lake RCMP received reports of one attempted and one successful vehicle theft on Sunday morning. When officers attempted to stop the suspects’ vehicles, the perpetrators fled, leading to a chase involving spike belts, a ramming attack on a police car, and the deployment of bear spray. Three suspects were eventually arrested with the help of police dogs and drones, while at least one more remains at large. [full article]

Please pray for those affected by this awful arson attack, as well as that all perpetrators might be brought to justice.

I can't find a fundraiser for the Church itself, but the Diocese does have a general donation link where they will no doubt use the funds to help support this community:

Hot take people who say it's never the child's fault when they do awful things (specifically teenagers) have never been subject to just how shitty those people can get

Every single day, I get my life threatened by 12-17 year olds. There was a period of time where I could not go outside for (valid) fear of being beaten to shit by my peers when I was FOURTEEN. Ive been stalked, assaulted sexually and physically and harassed, and I'm not even the worst case where I live. People have ended up in fucking HOSPITAL purely for being "too weird-" one guy even had his doorstep set on fire!!!!

At some point, youre gonna have to accept people DO have autonomy over their actions as kids, they don't magically grow a conscience the moment they turn 18.

Being youthlib means believing everyone deserves equal rights no matter the age, yes, but it also means everyone deserves to be held to the same standard when they hurt people.
