Not In Our Town: Billings, Montana (Low Res)

An excerpt of the critically acclaimed PBS special that sparked a national movement against hate and intolerance tells the uplifting story of how the residents of Billings, Montana, joined together when their neighbors were threatened by white supremacists. Townspeople of all races and religions swiftly moved into action. Religious and community leaders, labor union volunteers, law enforcement, the local newspapers and concerned individuals stood united and spoke loudly for a hate-free community, proclaiming in no uncertain terms "Not In Our Town!"

@liljatt82 Yesterday, there were 4 Jewish Institutions that were vandalized in Montreal, Quebec.

Daycare, Pre-Schools and Synagogues.

This has been happening with a lot more frequency lately and the community of Montreal has been silent.

The newspapers and media outlets do not even mention it.

We will see what kind community Montreal really is.

Hopefully, the entire community will stand up to this violence.

Hate is a soul-damning sin,and it is wrong!

"Proverbs 15:19"

"Galatians 5:19,20"

Seriously,to all Hate Groups out there,you are fighting a loosing battle,and you are accomplishing nothing,and whether it be by Man and God,or God alone,your only going to wind up being severely punished for your acts.WHY DO YOU WANT THAT?!?!?!?

Much Love,Billings,Montana,and it will be back to the way God intended one day.Not jsut for you,but for all.God is Love,and Love will reign supreme.
