Letters to the Editor

What is this country coming to?

These idiots who have put together these white hate groups against anything and everything pro-democracy, pro-American, are responsible for things like the recent shooting in Alexandria, Virginia; the rally against a monument to war dead in Forest Park right here at home; the actors who portrayed an enactment showing the killing of President Donald Trump.

What is this country coming to? Will this only stop when we can get a handle on the billionaire who funds these hate groups that go around the country causing mayhem? This is the leftist Democrat Party that foments and encourages these things. It is the left-wingers who are the new, modern version of the KKK!

George Soros needs to be prosecuted and put in jail for the rest of his life. What he is doing is beyond the pale.

H. Ray Sigler, Highland
