This is some b*llshit already. Reverend Nate has totally misstated ARA's position on this subject: One Life Crew *IS* the problem. The fact that neo-Nazi groups like the Keystone State Skinheads will be in attendance just adds more credence to our argument about what type of band OLC is and what type of people they will attract to the Unitarian Church.

The facts are simple here people:

* One Life Crew is a racist, homophobic band;
* R5 Productions rents space from the First Unitarian Church, a supposed progressive organization;
and
* The UU Church is blatantly allowing this show to go on, instead passing the blame onto R5 Productions, when the church itself can easily stop R5 from having this show (as Reverend Nate stated himself in multiple conversations with ARA members)

R5 is at fault here for attempting to bring a scumbag band like OLC to Philadelphia, BUT the UU Church is also at fault here for allowing hate speech to happen on their premises, and not doing anything about it except babbling on about communication and healing and pulling every liberal card they possible can to counter ARA's arguments about the show, its sponsors and its venue.

ENOUGH ALREADY!

The UU Church is supposed to a safe place for everyone. There are consequences to allowing a show like this go. For instance, has the UU leadership thought about all the young people that attend these shows? Are they going to be responsible when someone decides to follow through on this band's lyrics and jump queer people or people of color? Do they really want to have that on their conscience?

The answer is simple here - cancel the show. No, it won't end homophobia or racism, but it will send a strong message about your stance on these subjects, and show people that Philadelphia will not stand for this kind of b*llshit!

Reverend Nate says he wants to hear from people, and get their advice, so:

KEEP CALLING!! TELL HIM TO SHUT THIS SHOW DOWN!
