That is obviously the sane way to cope with it, Joe....but all thru history it has been easier to form groups which are 'against' something.

Quiet, peace loving folks are harder to stir up for a 'cause' until they feel directly and personally threatened. I don't know how the 5% of folks in Amarillo can go about defending against the 10% of active haters and 80%+ of 'Christians' who sympathize with the haters, but I don't envy them. Unfortunately in these situations, just calling for 'justice' and an end to persecution can get you lumped with those being persecuted and subjected to similar abuse.

To really be effective, counter-measures must have the support of the police & local government, and in some parts of Texas, that ain't easy!
