No details but noted on City of Sullivan,Mo-City Hall Facebook page with an official announcement. The last time this happened was about 15 years ago with a march down Main Street by Hooded thugs. If this occurs I am in place to docunent this hate crime.

My question to Governor Nixon where is the Highway Patrol maybe send the National Guard last time this happened these bigots were armed.?

Hey Agent Mike come visit Sullivan MO
