It is not a surprise to me that any racist group feels welcome to "stroll in" to the real estate office to set up shop in the John
Day area.  My brother, a gulf war veteran and avid outdoorsman went to John Day recently to hunt.  He has an Obama sticker on his truck.  When my brother went into a local business to purchase supplies the local patrons in the store were very interested to know who the "Nigger Lover" was.  They were mennacing enough that my brother got his supplies and slept with his gun next to him in case the local good ol' boys felt it necessary to pay a visit in the evening.  Way to go John Day!!
