Excuse Me But There is No Room For Racists
So last night I log into facebook and my brother messages me and tells me to check out a group invite. I thought it was going to be something silly but instead I joined the group and read through in disbelief. The Aryan Nation wants to move to John Day, Oregon. The more I learned, the sicker I grew.
Although I love the idea of them moving out of Idaho, I can not rejoice that they are going to a place my family has called home. My anger grew as I learned that the one building they want to use, was my Dad's old church. He was a pastor there and married my brother and his wife in that building. A place that was full of love and a support to the community, will now be full of hate and prejudice.
John Day is a quiet small town. It is a beautiful place that I enjoyed visiting. My brother's in laws live there and his children spend a few weeks every sumer with them.
I hope the Aryan Nation doesn't do this. However if it can't be stopped, I pray my brother's inlaws are able to move out and get away from this all.
I am in tears. That church was sacred and special to my family. Now it will be a place many will despise and right fully so.
I really wish they would disappear. I understand the freedom of speech but they are spreading hate and do not believe in equal rights for all. They will be having a compound with survival training and that just sounds BAD!!!
