A seventh grader in Winchester, Massachusetts, is getting nationwide praise for writing his local newspaper in response to a Trump backer who didn't support a town's local initiative to curb hate speech and behavior. Even Chelsea Clinton retweeted his words.

Recently, the Winchester Star published a letter from John Natale, a local resident and Trump supporter. In his letter, John took issue with signs that had begun to pop up around the community that say, "Hate Has No Home Here," an initiative meant to bring attention to angry, divisive words and actions. He listed four problems he had with the signs, asking, "Who are the haters that you, the sign owner, are referring to? What, or whom, do the haters hate? What is the evidence there is significant hate in our community? Obviously, you are so morally superior that you may declare everyone who disagrees with you as a hater. Where, when, and how did you become the Lord High Decider of Morality? How self-righteous, how divisive."

In response, 13-year-old Luke Macannuco wrote his own letter to the editor that broke down what was wrong with each of Natale's points. "Question: 'Who are the haters that you, the sign owner, are referring to?' Answer: Bigots who are trying to take away protections for transgender students, deport refugees, and build a very expensive wall to keep illegal immigrants out (which is completely pointless and not helping your cause, but I digress)," Luke wrote. He said the signs were a call to action against hate, how he himself had been the target of homophobic slurs, and how using the constitutional right to free speech means being allowed to put up a simple yard sign. "Calm down, dude," he said to John's claims of self-righteousness.

Luke ended his letter by showing the irony of John's. "If you’re going to ask us to do you a favor and take the signs down, do humanity a favor and take your Trump signs down," he wrote. "Finally, if you are going to say signs exhibit 'snowflake sensitivity,' take a moment to think about how you are writing an angry letter to a newspaper about a lawn sign."
