Disgusting

I just wrote this e-mail to our local newspaper (which pretty much sums up my morning):

**************

Hello,

I'm a Waltham resident and live on Newton Street over near the Newton line. This morning I left my house at around 7:00 AM to find a racist flyer in a plastic bag with a rock to keep it from blowing away on the sidewalk. Looking around it seemed that my neighbors also had the thing in front of their houses.

I've heard about this happening in Newton quite often but never in Waltham. Leaving things like this isn't illegal, so I'm not calling the police. I thought someone would want to know though.

It reads "MISSING" at the top, and shows a picture of a blond, white child underneath. The text underneath reads:
"A Future for White Children. Description: Blond, red, or brown hair, fair skin; innocent, inquisitive, intelligent, trusting personality. Corrupt politicians and minority special-interest groups have abducted her future. There will be no future for her in the Third World America that our nation's enemies are planning. Let us take back out country and make it great, clean, decent and beautiful once again. For our children's sake. The men and women of the National Alliance want you to join in this great, patriotic effort."

The organization is called the National Alliance, a PO box in West Virginia is given, and two websites: www.natvan.com and www.natall.com.

That's it. If you have questions or want to contact me you can e-mail me here (I've also left phone numbers below - I'm best found at work between 8 and 4 PM, Mon-Fri).

Thanks!

Ironic isn't it, considering our city was built on the labor of immigrants during the boom of the industrial revolution? The damn US industrial revolution started in Waltham, MA actually (which for the most part was staffed by people coming from other countries, my family included).

I noticed that these were in front of houses in our section of the street but driving closer to Main (i.e. the poorer, more run-down section) they were curiously missing. Suprised? Not really. Fscking cowards!

we've already had that flyer in our town. (about 2 wekes ago or so) The car (if I'm right) that was used was an old caddy/tank/type of car with flaked blue paint. I am only guessing because the car was turning around quickly and left the area in a hurry. I pretty much know all the cars that normally come by our street, and this one seemed out of place an in a hurry to leave. It was also in th early AM that it was seen.
Same flyer and rock. I believe the same flyer was already in our town maybe a month ago, I remember seeing something in the police reports.
At least you're doing something about it, and that's a good thing. So apathetic am I that it went straight to the trash without opening the bag. I was impressed with all the effort this person went to- all for the children's sake. What would we do without children to make an excuse for our perceived inadequcies. Hmmpf. What a crock of fetid lard!

Ah well, I do think it is ironic about the fact Waltham was targeted. My town however, is *known* for being overlly-suspicious (shall we say) of any race other than white. Which, thankfully, is being adressed at the town council now- so I suppose people are slowy getting their heads out of the sand, and finally listening to the expeirence of others rather than "oh, that wouldn't happen in OUR town. We're too nice, polite, we'd NEVER perform racial bias". heh. The world it turns, turns upside down, and stands upright what was broken in the turning.
