Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office Investigating “Pray for White America” Leaflets

Originally posted on Quora

LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. - Residents in Loudoun County have mixed feelings about whether law enforcement should pursue hate crime charges against whoever is responsible for distributing fliers promoting white supremacy in several neighborhoods.

So far, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office has stopped short of calling it a hate crime.

While the sheriff’s office is asking the community to come forward with information about who may be responsible for the fliers, it is not being handled as a hate crime.

Dozens of fliers were found in driveways across the county last week.

The fliers were reportedly attached to birdseed with the message — "pray for white America" written on them…

The sheriff's office told FOX 5 that although they agree there is no place in the community for hate of any kind, there have not been any arrests made due to there being no criminal violations occurring.

The more recent cases that occurred in western Loudoun are still under investigation.

Leesburg resident and former Loudoun County NAACP President Phillip Thompson wants the sheriff to consider the pro-white flier distribution a hate crime.

He says residents feel threatened and intimated (sic)

We work very closely with the FBI regarding these matters and have consulted with them on previous cases to determine if there is a violation of federal statutes. Although we agree there is no place in our community for hate of any kind, there have not been any arrests made due to no criminal violations occurring. The more recent cases that occurred in western Loudoun is still an ongoing investigation. As with any investigation the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office investigates each case very thoroughly for any criminal violations. The recent incidents are currently being investigated by a detective in an attempt to determine who is distributing the offensive material."

Here we have:

1. Residents being asked, by government authorities to help identify who distributed the leaflets
2. A powerful institution (the NAACP) calling for the distribution of pro-White leaflets to be considered a “crime.”
3. A police force expending resources for “an investigation” who’s purpose is to try to find an actual crime that can be pinned on the responsible parties - even though no obvious crime was committed and…
4. The FBI getting involved

As for residents “feeling threatened and intimated (sic),” this is exactly the reaction we’d expect after years of anti-White propaganda. Would they feel “threatened and intimidated” by “pray for black America” leaflets?” Probably not.

I’ll point out that when a government agency expends such resources to identify the citizens responsible for distributing “offensive material,” it’s in order to put their names on a list. It means that those citizens will be deprived of their rights in the future.
