. . .The guy created a hometown newspaper website that recently won a national award. But he is from Atwood, Kansas and that town just rewarded him by voting 984-113 in favor of the new anti-gay constitutional amendment. So he took the newspaper website down for good and posted this open message to everyone just in time for the award-winning website to be featured on the news. He's still giving them better than they deserve. From the link provided:
An open letter to the Citizens of Atwood.
I sincerely apologize that I cannot represent Atwood anymore. I am completely disappointed and heartbroken (for lack of a better word) at the actions of my hometown, a community that always says how much it cares for others.
You know when I first created AtwoodKansas.com I did so because of my desire to do everything I could to save my hometown from dying like so many other Midwestern towns. . . .
