In a free society, we have the right to host events and discuss political beliefs, no matter who agrees or disagrees. What has happened to Montano's restaurant in Truro after renting space to Republican candidates is disgraceful and unacceptable.
What's worse is the silence of our elected officials - particularly State Senator Julian Cyr, a proud native of Truro. Why are you not condemning this behavior against a local business owner? Why are you not standing up for free speech? I shouldn't be surprised. When your supporters hurled insults and false accusations towards me and one of my volunteers collecting signatures in Provincetown in 2024, you stood by and said nothing. You are a coward.
I'll be heading to Montano's for dinner soon. I encourage everyone to do the same. Senator Cyr can reach out if he wants to join me and stand up for free speech. ๐บ๐ธ
Update: To his credit, Senator Cyr has now made comments condemning the threats made against Montano's.
A Cape Cod restaurant has been inundated by online threats and harassment, even a hoax 911 call resulting in a massive emergency response, in retaliation for hosting a Republican fundraising event.
