Atheist accused of threat may face more charges
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Map, News) - Colorado Springs authorities are considering more charges against an atheist accused of threatening to behead two women with a knife because they are Christians.
Saturday's dispute with neighbors ended when another neighbor hit Russell Bowman with the butt of a shotgun. Police say Bowman's injury is so severe he may lose an eye.
Bowman faces a felony menacing charge. Police said Monday other charges are possible.
He remained in Memorial Hospital Monday.
The neighbor who hit Bowman was not charged.

We could always do what many Christians are prone to doing when a Christian does something they don't want being associated with them.
"He's not a real atheist. No real atheist would do something like that!"
But seriously, I agree with you. It's bad that people are going to make it a situation of "evil atheist persecutes Christians", particularly given the way the media is portraying it.
