Don’t Tread On Indiana (a Brown County-based, grass-roots political advocacy group for traditional American values) has been publicly misrepresented by a prominent public offical. Let’s set the record straight.
At last night’s Town Council meeting, a member of DTOI overheard Nashville IN Town Council president Nancy Crocker state aloud: “The folks who are doing the freedom rallies [Don’t Tread On Indiana] approached us about putting this ordinance together”. She was talking about the human rights ordinance.
Now, I personally was watching the proceedings on Zoom and did not hear Ms. Crocker say this. However, my source is trustworthy, so I will assume the report is accurate.
To be clear, Don’t Tread On Indiana has never contacted any Town Council official advocating in favor of the proposed human rights ordinance. This is because we stand staunchly against it, for reasons that will be elucidated in a future statement.
Why the Nashville Town Council president believes and stated aloud in public that DTOI ever encouraged the construction of this unnecessary and potentially counter-productive initiative is beyond our imagination. That’s a question best asked of Nancy Crocker.
