I sent the following private message to Country Springs on Facebook:
Hello - I need to share my concern with your management about a meeting
I've heard will be hosted at your facility on "the threat of Islam"
scheduled for this Monday, April 9. The two speakers, John Guandolo and
Chris Gaubatz, are being monitored by the HateWatch program of the Southern
Poverty Law Center. Allowing hateful folks like these to spread a skewed
vision and/or hateful lies about the religion of Islam and of Muslims in
general will not reflect well on your establishment. Yes - there are bad
folks - no denying that, but they are a minority. I personally know many
good, peaceful Muslims and find this type of divisive, one-sided, hateful
rhetoric appalling. I have heard you may have cancelled this session, but
this is not clear. I would appreciate hearing your management's response to
my concerns. I am an advocate of free speech by the way, which means I am
not asking you to cancel the event. I am also, however, in support of those
who would choose to protest the event peacefully and choose not to use your
establishment in the future. Thank you.--
Lisa
