Boone, Iowa Is The Focal Point Of Hate

Image preview

I grew up in Boone, Iowa(pop 12,000) in the 1950's and 60's. Our community is located 45 miles northwest of Des Moines. It was and still is an idyllic and non-controversial town until last week.

A man, a Trump supporter, commissioned a mural to be painted on a downtown building. It's location is on 8th and Story Street, smack dab in the center of town.

As one my suspect, in this day and age, a group of naysayers showed up at he last city commission meeting to protest the mural saying it caused them microaggression. They felt offended and uncomfortable.

Unfortunately, for them there isn't a law on the city books saying the mural is illegal. Hmm. I can only imagine these poor souls nightly crawling into the fetal position bemoaning Donald Trump and how he's destroying their lives.

God is great. God is good.
