There’s been a lot of noise and misinformation about what was said at our antisemitism press conference, so let us be clear. People of all faiths stood together for one purpose: to say no to antisemitism. Not quietly. Not conditionally. Clearly and unequivocally. This is not about politics or constitutional debates. It’s about what we, as people, are willing to accept. Antisemitic speech should never be normalized. When it shows up—on the street, in the workplace, or online—we have a responsibility to confront it, not ignore it. The photo that’s been circulating was shared with us by someone who received direct, threatening communication. It was used to illustrate a larger point: antisemitism is being mainstreamed in ways that should concern every one of us. That information was forwarded to another police agency that already had a felony warrant for that individual. We have had no role in that case or arrest. Let us also be clear: posting that image was not a crime, and it was not treated as one. But it is a symptom of a growing problem—one where too many people look the other way, or worse, lend their support. The hateful responses we’ve seen since only reinforce that reality. Don’t hide behind the First or Second Amendment to deflect from the issue. That’s not what this is about. This is about standing up for your neighbors—whether they are Jewish or not—and refusing to accept hate as normal.

I just got this picture from a friend, a Sunoco gas station in Ohio. Why don’t they remove the sticker?
