Man Sets Self on Fire to Protest Xmas/Easter

(Kern County, California) What an idiot!

From SacBee.com:
A man used flammable liquid to light himself on fire, apparently to protest a San Joaquin Valley school district's decision to change the names of winter and spring breaks to Christmas and Easter vacation.

The man, who was not immediately identified, on Friday also set fire to a Christmas tree, an American flag and a revolutionary flag replica, said Fire Captain Garth Milam.
I wish him a full recovery but don't really think it's appropriate to mitigate his pain. He deserves, and likely desires, a full, throbbing and excruciating reward for his courageous dedication.

I hope they decide to publish his name so I can help give him the recognition he deserves.
