Except that in the long run, there is going to be a right side of this issue and a wrong side. Not unlike with racial segregation.

This, please. There are members who are all over the political spectrum. Don't alienate members.

It was announced last week during our Town Hall meeting that we might sell our HQ in Oxford, Ohio. We are currently occupying the first floor (2nd and 3rd floors are vacant). We are also looking at the possibility of remodeling so that the 2 empty floors can be subleased. However, this is going to be extremely expensive (new separate entrance and ADA compliant) We do have a buyer for our facility but there is no available commercial property to buy or land available to buy and rebuild in the Oxford area. Brothers are concerned about the fate of our Centennial Garden if the facility is sold.
