Dear Editor,
Americans late in 2020 have found our first, if likely our last, common rallying point since 2016. That wonderful place of agreement is priority vaccination of health care workers. In this, we all believe.
But otherwise, we live in a cesspool of un-natural division. How can a people who have so much be so dissatisfied with each other? This holds true in our friendships, our marriages, our employments, and, yes, our governments and political parties. The rest of the world must feel nothing but pity for us.
As a people we have digressed so far that we have very little in common except greed, lust, animosity, consumption, and ignorance. That isn’t very much to go on.
All the while our homes, churches, schools and workplaces are promoting comity and amity and unity, our public places are demonstrating exactly the opposite—every kind of violent mentality, self-destructive behavior, distrust and irresponsibility. We are monstrous hypocrites.
We must try to figure out what is the root of all this evil.
Sincerely,
Kim Shinkoskey

New Zealand looks really good to me. Beautiful, warm, English-speaking, SARS- free, AR-15’s-free…….
It doesn’t take much to figure out. As soon as a non politician ran for president the attacks started. The lies the finger pointing and the total disrespect for those who supported him were launched. You were called a racist and numerous other names. When the president started to fight back against the insults and fake news the swamp retaliation deepened. When you tried to defend yourself through trying to have a open discussion you were called all sorts of names and blamed for the very things they were and are doing. Now there won’t be any unity because it was allowed to go too far. Now the very people who are responsible for the violence and disrespectful actions are going to be treated as they treated us. You don’t have to look far to see what your life will be like . New York City Chicago Portland Seattle Los Angles should I go on. They are now going to get what they asked for.
