Why Would Anyone Vandalize a Nativity Scene Like This?

I agree with Hemant Mehta, The Friendly Atheist: why would anyone vandalize a nativity scene on private property? Whether or not the offender is an atheist they should be prosecuted by the, secular, civic authority. I vociferously support the “separation of church and state” but will equally support the rights of religious people to promote their views as long as that does not involve government forcing me to adhere to those religious views.
