Thomas Dillard, a resident of Portland, TN, is currently facing retaliation for standing up for his rights. Sumner County courts have concluded that Thomas presents a threat to the public safety and are seeking to revoke his bond. This decision was made without consulting the very community that Thomas is supposedly a threat to, the people of Portland, TN. In our community, we prioritize dialogue and understanding, and we hope to apply these values to Thomas’s case. This is not a call to discredit the court's judgment but a plea for comprehensive evaluation before making such a profound assertion. We request a public referendum where everyone who lives in Portland, TN can express their feelings about Thomas Dillard and his presence in our community. Please sign this petition to stand for justice, transparent decision-making, and a community's right to be heard.
