Details
The Purifiers are a right wing religious group that started in the American-Midwest. Fundamentalist and Christian, the Purifiers believe that mutations and mutants are unholy and unclean. They're a terrorist organization and commit acts such as murder, as in their minds the only way to 'save' a mutant is to kill them. They believe that this is doing God's Work. The thought is to save the soul, the unclean, mutated body has to be destroyed.
The founder of the Purifiers is Matthew Risman. Though not ordained in any church as a minister, Risman started the movement in Wisconsin. They've grown exponentially since then and have chapters in Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois and Iowa. The followers are fanatical in their devotion and their ideas. When told they will even commit suicide rather than jeopardize their work.
Brewster House in Chicago is just one place where this ideal is coming up. These people genuinely believe they are doing God's work. The purifiers are, essentially, a cult.
