Dear Editor,
Where did we get all this "right" wing and "left" wing verbiage? Shouldn't we think more of "right vs. wrong"? Growing up, everyone learned right from wrong and that "two wrongs do not make it right." Today there is little if any consideration of "right," meaning "just" or "fair" or "legal" or "following the 10 Commandments."
Following the Constitution and laws is "right." Laws/ethics are here to protect us individually and as a society. Every headline today seems to elevate the acceptance of wrongs: killing, breaking into stores/homes, reckless driving, immorality, rampaging on our Capitol or private property, intimidating those we disagree with in public, etc. Do you honestly think by screaming, fighting, bad-mouthing, threatening others we can sway the opinions of those who disagree with us. Whether you are a conservative or a liberal, look at what you have done.
I voted for Trump. I wanted conservatives on the Jan. 6 committee, but the testimonies given – even from Trump family members and close advisers – lead to the conclusion that Trump was involved in promoting/escalating the riots. His finances are still being looked into. If these investigations pan out, he should be held accountable. Look at Hunter Biden's story. The liberal press ignored the allegations before the election to get Biden elected. If the misuse of power and accepting bribes and financial inducements can be proven, they should and must be held accountable. Both "leaders" must be held accountable in the interest of right and law. Power does not denigrate responsibility and illegality.
Wrong to keep pushing the "illegal election results." Wrong to riot at the Capitol. Two wrongs.
Wrong for some police to overstep and harm unarmed people no matter their color. Wrong to break into stores and steal. Two wrongs.
Wrong to give money to those who quit their jobs willingly. Wrong to keep giving them money when there are so many jobs available. Two wrongs.
Wrong to use violence and mob rule to show dissatisfaction. Wrong to cause public disruptions and hurt people and businesses and disrupt the lives of innocent people. Two wrongs.
Wrong to allow any illegals into the U.S. Wrong to promote their intrusions with federal assistance for shelter, food, medical treatments. Two wrongs.
Get over your power lusts. Act sanely. Fight your battles in courts, not on streets. Be civil. Be responsible.
