Gov. Whitmer on recent chanting in Dearborn [[crickets)
Condemning 'death to America' chants should be easy. Not for liberal Michigan Gov. Whitmer. -USA Today opinion
One protester explained that the issue was Israel dropping bombs on their families. "What is so hard to understand about that? " he insisted. But Americans have emotional reactions too when the folks in Dearborn are chanting "death to America" and their elected leaders are silent.
Unlike Gov. Whitmer, Dearborn's mayor Hammoud did speak out against the chanters saying, "We reject all inflammatory and violent statements made at the gathering. Dearborn is a city of proud Americans; the hateful rhetoric heard on Friday does not reflect the opinion of the members of this community." Well it does reflect the opinions of community members who chanted "death to America" but the Mayor should be credited for his statement.
