Parlor letter: Charlottesville

Voicing a huge concern regarding Sept. 30 potential Nazi/KKK concert here in Boise. I voiced a strong opinion against it being allowed to happen on Facebook and Facebook blocked my account as well as Messenger. That show’s obvious red alert. We need to stand against these hate groups versus standing down like the police did in the Midwest. I’m knocking on every door and email to send a message we the people in Boise do not want this hate group here. City of Boise, let’s stand for peace, let’s stand for love and not stand down allowing this Nazi/KKK concert to take place. Thank you, Facebook, for blocking me. Tried to quiet me, you only awakened a louder voice.

Chizette Parlor, Boise
