'This town is not for them.' Residents react to white Christian nationalists moving to Tennessee

In an impromptu meeting, the town of Gainesboro joined together after a NewsChannel 5 investigation showed that Christian nationalists wanted to come to their town and make it their own.

If your belief in the Power of God is so weak you want to legislate Biblical laws, you are actually a faithless unbeliever.

The people of Gainesboro need to find out how the Christian nationalists were chased out of the previous town where they came from.

Congratulations to everyone for standing up for what is right. “ if you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything” ❤️ ❤️

There is no hate like Christian nationalists love

So, they'll support it at the ballot box, but not when it comes to their own backyard.

"I never thought the leopards would eat my face" says the county that voted for the leopards eating peoples faces.

No one should be allowed to move in and just take over. When you move somewhere you adjust to the town/area, not the other way around.

The white lady that said she’s accepted even though she’s an outsider… She forgot that she’s WHITE.

Christian Nationalism is about power, not God.
