Hotels Alerted to Possible Presence of White Supremacists

On Friday, July 20, Michigan Against White Supremacy went to 18 different motels in the Kalamazoo area to distribute informational packets that warned motel staff of the hate speech and violent nature of individuals who are scheduled to attend the racist rally being held by Hal Turner on August 4. Many of the managers and staff that they spoke to were very receptive and assured that the information would be passed on to the rest of the motel’s employees. Some of the motel employees asked about the MAWS web page and several stated that the racist hate speech organizers would not be allowed to stay at their motel. Several motels had been visited by police officers and other concerned individuals, and had received a list of names of people who were likely attending the rally.

It is a basic 1st amendment free speech right to ask businesses not to deal with certain customers. Little Harold is also confusing criminal law with civil law.
A few examples…
It is the same when Hal Turner is asking white people not to do business with certain Jewish businesses. Or when Christians picket businesses asking them not to do business with gays.
It’s all legal and there’s nothing Little Harold can do about it.
If Little Harold does get discriminated against, it’s between him and the hotel. And he’ll lose to the high priced lawyers the hotels can afford but Little Harold can’t.
