On Thursday night, they took action in a peaceful way.

“The last thing we need to do is to get aggressive and hateful,” neighbor Rebecca Kushner-Matteer said.

They printed information sheets about the family and knocked on doors to pass them out.

“This letter is not written as a means to harass the family or to begin a witch hunt,” the sheet says. “We wish the family no harm. Our goal is to peacefully communicate that this kind of hate and ignorance will not be accepted here in our neighborhood where we live and raise our families.”

“No hate here” is printed on one side of the brightly colored fliers. The eight or so adults and as many children who went door-to-door Thursday asked residents to display the sign in their windows. Many did.
