Kyrja, public Pagan, once shot at, now regaining security.

Hate Lives in a Small Town?

     With appologies to Voltaire, hate can be found just about anywhere.  Even in Florida, as Pagan children's author, Kyrja learned recently.  For those of you unfamiliar with the story, either from Facebook or the subsequent post on The Wild Hunt, Kyrja started getting harassing messages on her YouTube Channel, prank phonecalls and late night visitors who would scream obsenties at her home indicating that they knew she was a Witch. 

      The scariest part was during the evening of late March Kyrja's home was shot at.  The first bullets piercing the window where she sits to upload Rupert's Tales to the world.  Kyrja did the right thing, and called the police as well as the Lady Liberty League

     The police responded quickly as did the LLL.  Lady Liberty League has now made the approprate recommendations, not the least of which include security system and cameras to act as a visual deterrant as well as to record evidence in case of a return offender or copy cat.  In order to do this, Kyrja has launched an indiegogo crowdfunding campaign to raise the money needed ($1,100) to make the suggested upgrades. 

     This is where we come in, dears.  If you can contribute, even $1, great.  Let's get the word out to help our fellow human feel safe in her own home again.  It doesn't matter if you're a Witch or not, Pagan or not.  We're all beautiful beings and deserve to feel safe in our homes.  Let's help Kyrja's family know the peace we all deserve in our homes, and any wishes toward Justice for her family would be appreciated. 

Thanks so much my dear friends.

Thanks to the lovely Kallan Kennedy, goddess behind "The Secret Life of the American Working Witch" I'm updating. 

I hadn't heard, but Kyrja's home was also bombed almost three weeks after the inital shooting of her windows!  Two seperate pipe bombs were thrown at the home on April 22nd while Kyrja's step daughter was on the lawn!  Heather had to be treated for chemical inhalation and given medication.  Please help this family realize their dreams of getting a peaceful night's sleep.  The family is offering a reward leading to the capture of those responsible!
