Dear Editor,
I was disappointed to read the following post by Steven Peruso on the “Concerned Kingston-Community Support for Law Enforcement” Facebook page (Aug. 3). Peruso, who is running for Alderman of Ward 1, posted his comment in response to protestors at a recent Common Council meeting that approved the acquisition of an armored vehicle: “Are they even alive, and if so, should they be(?) … They’re wasting air”
Disagreement in political arenas is common and welcome, but personal and threatening denunciations are not acceptable forms of the freedom of speech guaranteed by the Constitution. We all need to strive for civil discourse, particularly our community leaders.
Is this really the person we want representing Kingston residents?
