Denounce DEC, organized racism in San Diego County
The Issue
DEC (Defend East County) is a hate group that was started after the La Mesa protests. This group claims their mission it to protect East County property from looters and rioters.
In reality, they were started by a group of racist locals living in East County. They hide behind the guise of being a community watch group and target BLM supporters and their families. They do nothing but cause harm to the communities around them. They have threatened and attacked BIPOC especially women. They accept proud boys, KKK and other white supremacists into their ranks. They are dangerous criminals that need to be held accountable. Facebook has removed their page due to conspiracy theories, racist rants, right-wing extremism and for insighting violence.
Official Statment from WSUSD:
San Diego county constituents demand our public elected representatives to denounce Defend East County group's actions against the BIPOC community. DEC has targeted our comrades of the East County BIPOC Coalition by posting their personal information publicly to cause direct harm. For months, WSUSD called on our public elected representatives (mayor, supervisors, council members, and other leaders) to protect San Diego county constituents against hateful actions from the DEC group. San Diego elected representatives can no longer hold office while allowing hate groups to continue to harm the BIPOC community! WSUSD DEMANDS CHANGE!
