This country is not united anymore
I have for some time held my tongue and counted to 10 several times before responding to Leonard’s letters ... he is such a biggot and white hater that his latest letter proves it. One line stands out and I quote “Apparently, the NRA doesn’t actually defend the right to bear arms-just the white to bear arms.” Now if any white journalist were to write anything racist like this they would never be hired again. This country is not united anymore; it’s diffidently divided. It is a sad, sad day when you have people like Leo who have their own column at their leisure.
