Rockville Centre community came together Wednesday to denounce hate after the
Proud Boys marched in the village over the weekend.
More than 100 people showed up on the steps of Beth Emeth synagogue to show
their opposition to the far-right group
that came by on Saturday.
The Proud Boys are classified as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law
Center and Anti-Defamation League. They had their faces covered with bandannas
and handed out flyers detailing their group's message.
"A
defined hateful group invaded our downtown, trying to disrupt our
beliefs..." says Mayor Francis Murray. "It's not going to happen
here."
Others
say that they can't remain silent because everyone has to learn to get along
and appreciate other without having hateful messages out there.
