Arrest Over Demon Protest
A Georgia pastor was arrested yesterday while protesting local high school's nickname, the Screamin' Demons. Warner Robins Police say Donald Crosby of Kingdom Builders Church of Jesus Christ didn't have a protest permit for the opening day of classes. A couple of dozen people joined him with signs reading, "Home games will have to be played in hell" and "Demons don't like me, because I'm Christian." Another group has started a petition drive in favor of keeping the nickname. The mascot was adopted right after World War II in honor of the 7th fighter squadron based at Robins Air Force Base for repairs which had the nickname Screamin' Demons.
