Was Leelanau County (Michigan) Road Commissioner Tom Eckerle Forced Out of His Job Merely for Criticizing the Genocidal Racism of black lives matter?

N.S.: The msm, led by Associated Press operative John Flesher, are refusing to even report honestly on what Tom Eckerle said. They imply that honest reporting is somehow “racist.”

GRA: As I said in the “Trader Joe” story, there are dueling anti-White forces at work—“cancellation” and "termination"—both designed to harness Whites into a certain train of thought by severe discipline.

“Cancellation” punishes White businesses through boycott and social pressure.

“Termination” punishes individuals through job loss.

Both are totalitarian and evil.

The white commissioners in Leelanau are complicit and evil as well by calling for Tom Eckerle’s resignation. Free speech without reprisal is our right as Americans. If anyone can prove that the road commissioner is committing slander—take it to court, prove it, and have a legal decision determined—otherwise, FREE SPEECH.

And any government leader who publicly states that this opinion is racist, and that blacks shouldn’t have to live in an area where Whites speak this way, the “offended” blacks can do one of two things:

1) Stay; or
2) Leave.

It’s all very simple.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) — An elected official in a mostly White county in northern Michigan who used a racist slur prior to a public meeting to describe black people in Detroit will resign, the county administrator said Friday.

Leelanau County Administrator Chet Janik said Tom Eckerle, a member of the county road commission, would step down after receiving criticism from across the U.S. for his comments.

“I personally and professionally think it’s in the best interests of Mr. Eckerle, the road commission and Leelanau County,” Janik told The Associated Press.

The Traverse City Record-Eagle reported that Eckerle had informed the newspaper of his plans to quit, saying he didn’t want to “burden” a newly hired road commission manager scheduled to begin work this month. Eckerle did not return a call from the AP. But in a phone interview earlier Friday, he repeated the slur while maintaining he was not a racist.

Eckerle spent much of the interview attacking black lives matter, saying a mention of the decentralized movement against racial injustice and police brutality is what set him off ahead of a Tuesday meeting.

[N.S.: The mention of blm in the foregoing sentence is not reporting, but editorializing. blm is not a “decentralized movement against racial injustice and police brutality,” it is a movement promoting black totalitarianism and White genocide. The AP fake news reporter, John Flesher, is letting us know that he is a political supporter of blm, and thus, of black totalitarianism and White genocide.]

“I’m not a racist,” Eckerle told the AP. “black lives matter is racist. If I believed in black lives matter, I would be racist. … black lives matter has no heart. And that is as offensive to me as the n-word,” he added, then used the full racist slur.

[It sounds like he was forced out, simply for criticizing blm as racist.]

“If I could get a few people that, when they see a black lives matter sign up, to think the n-word, I have accomplished what I’m after,” he added.

Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and Eckerle’s fellow road commission members were among those demanding he step down.

“His comments are atrocious,” Whitmer spokeswoman Tiffany Brown said Friday. “The governor has been very clear—there’s no place for hate and racism in Michigan.”

Eckerle’s original comments were first reported by the Leelanau Enterprise, which said they were not officially recorded because the Tuesday meeting had not started.

GRA: I’m surprised—he couldn’t handle the world attacking him, it turns out. Too bad. I would eat it up for dinner and ask for seconds.
