Last Tuesday evening at the Canton Public Library, a group of concerned local citizens, united by their shared values and a deep and abiding terror over a Donald Trump-led White House, gathered to discuss ways that they could support their fellow residents and help ensure that the Canton community remains “safe for diversity.”
“We’re a group dedicated to making every family in Canton feel safe,” explained the promotional flyer prepared by the group’s founder, Kathleen “KK” Howley, a former senior reporter for Bloomberg News. “We want to know if our neighbors need help, and we want to stand with them.A lot of people don’t feel safe anymore.”
All in all, Howley said it was a productive first meeting for Not in Our Town, with a total of seven people in attendance.
As a proud gay woman who is married with one daughter, Howley considers herself fortunate to live in a predominately liberal state such as Massachusetts. However, she too has been the recipient of hateful speech throughout her lifetime. “I have been called a dyke. I’ve had horrible things yelled at me,” she said. “Fortunately it has only happened a couple of times, but it’s devastating.”
And while some are hesitant to fault the president-elect for the actions of an ignorant few, Howley is an unabashed critic who blames him personally and wholeheartedly for the recent surge in hate crimes and acts of discrimination.
“You only call him a ‘divisive’ candidate if you’re white and straight; otherwise you call him a bigot,” she said. “And to find out we have so many bigots in this country and people who are willing to vote for a bigot — there’s not much of a distinction in my mind; if you’re willing to vote for one, then you become a part of that.”

. . . and I told Mom she should just stop!
“I have been called a dyke. I’ve had horrible things yelled at me,”...
I’m guessing she won’t be getting tickets for Milo’s “Dangerous Faggot tour”.
Funny how liberals claim to be “standing against hate” as they vomit out their own unfounded anti-American loathing. I’m saying “funny-ha-ha” not funny as in strange.
That means 0.03% of them attended this meeting. Wow!
Unless you own a bakery, Bed and Breakfast, photography business or the like and don't care to do business with homosexuals. Then you're happy to ruin them financially and professionally.
Doesn't sound very "safe" to me.

Just,,,D@MN!
This is satire, right?
They relentlessly attack us, everything we have ever cared about. The moment we resist with argument or ballot, that is called “hate”.
LOL! Creating a fake situation where none previously existed.
This is a very Jewish community, what do you expect?
I like the way you think!
“They relentlessly attack us, everything we have ever cared about. The moment we resist with argument or ballot, that is called “hate”.
They pretty much wore out `racist’ and `fascist’, so it looks like they’re going now with a generic `haters’ seasoned with `white male’ and `bigots’ etc.
When it gets cold they switch to ‘climate change’. Next spring they’ll go back to global warming and racist.
But by next spring they are going to be on their heels with all the alphabets they so love: the EPA, CAIR, NPR, Planned Parenthood, LBGTQ, La Raza, etc. As John Ratzenberger put it, the adults are back in charge. The expensive circus-zoo with all the freak sideshows, it’s over.
So don’t let it get you down FRiend! Behind all the puerile name-calling, they’re just deeply butthurt losers.
Hillary was supposed to be the first woman and lesbo president, ya know? They thought they had it bagged.
Sorry Kathy Howley, you lost. But at least you’re taking it like a man ... a small, close-minded, frightened, name-calling man. You got your toleration, Kate, but keep pushing it bigmouth.
If you want to see the kind of degenerate people who voted for Hitler, look in the mirror, Kathleen “KK” Howley.
“A lot of people don’t feel safe anymore.”
With the number of terrorist attacks obama brought to our shores she’s absolutely right. But I know that is not what she and her “coexist” bumper sticker meant.
Howley apparently (conveniently) forgets that it was HILLARY that had the father of the Orlando gay nightclub shooter at her rally!
