My favorite indie cafe in my little town was vandalized last night.

Someone threw a rock through the window and painted racist graffiti on the storefront. There was also a racist message spray-painted on a family owned Mexican restaurant down the street from the first cafe. This news has been circulating via neighborhood message boards. Local news has not reported on it yet.

It's less than half a block from me and where we all get much of our fresh fruit, meat, milk, etc.

My sympathies as one who frequents indie cafes. These neighborhood boards often help find idiots who do such things. How is your PD handling it?

Along with the other misogynists and assholes of America who supported Trump.

You got what you wanted. Good for you and your selfish, tiny, vain little white-privileged world.

A community meeting has been called for tomorrow among town folks and members of the city council to discuss our continued commitment of civil rights and inclusion. I plan to attend.
