[Gerald Flakas]

Thanks for the good news! I'm out of state, so would somebody please listen to WTMJ radio 620 tomorrow and listen to the whining?

Hello,

I just called Country Springs and was told that the program has been cancelled.

Thanks,

Joanne

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.--

This is of great concern to me and many others, because the two speakers, John Guandolo and Chris Gaubatz, are being monitored by the HateWatch program of the Southern Poverty Law Center.
There is more than enough hate being spread these days ~~ we neither need nor want any more!
Protests are currently being arranged.
