You folks are disgusting for promoting White Supremacy in the name of the 1st amendment and arresting people who actually are using the 1st amendment for a good reason. I hope you get all the damnation you deserve.

Hi, New York resident, from Michigan, educated in Ann Arbor, just read the NY Times piece on the arrest at the Farmers' Market of the IU prof protesting the "white supremacists". Might I please commend the members of the Bloomington Police for their conduct that day and every day. You make me proud. We were the anti-Vietnam generation. Years without a culture of Lessons Learned, only affluence, has given a culture that doesn't work together. You must police a culture of opinions + orifices that does not build a thing except a self-image. Know that we need you and walk with you. You strengthen me to do my part to build the nation you protect. May God bless you. We are with you.

Hello, I'm not sure if this is the correct area or not. But, we need to something about the police. Every call I have had with their dispatch has been rude and now I read in the IDS that they laughed at the person that called in the flyers. I get it, I'm sure they get stupid calls. But they are often callous, rude, and blatantly mock and discredit you when you call to report suspicious activity or other issues. They say report suspicious activity and promote their community policing yet this seems inconsistent with their actions. It's frustrating.

Hello City of Bloomington - I want to suggest that you learn about and advocate for the City to join the Government Alliance on Race and Equity (GARE) - https://www.racialequityalliance.org. It's a national network geared to local and regional government agencies. We know white supremacy is a systemic problem, not unique to B'town. The City should work in coalition and learn from other govt. entities committed to progressive social change. Mayor Hamilton and other City leaders know about GARE but have never joined. We're not a progressive city. BUT we could make a serious move towards being one if we take bold, strategic action. Joining GARE is a start. Thanks for taking seriously this suggestion. Sincerely, Trish Kerle'

Farmer's Market Cancellation

I am very concerned with the Mayor's comments about the Farmer's Market. You cannot have it both ways, you don't get to condemn white nationalists in one sentence and then welcome all in the next. I would like to see some clarification on what he meant by this statement. “As Mayor, I have spoken for our city to condemn white nationalism and white supremacists as a scourge on our country and our community, and to promise that we will do all we can to overcome their legacies and any current efforts,” said Bloomington Mayor John Hamilton. “We also want to assure that everyone knows that all are welcome in our inclusive Bloomington, and that our Farmers’ Market will embody those values of inclusion and welcoming, as well as be a safe space for all to gather, as our community expects every Saturday.” This reads like White Nationalists are welcome.
