LETTER: Senate Democrats kill abortion bills

Senate Democrats last week blocked legislation to protect unborn children after 20 weeks of pregnancy in a 53-44 vote. A second bill, which would have ensured medical care for babies born during an attempted abortion, failed 56-41. Both bills had majority support but lacked the required 60 votes to advance.

There are only seven countries, including China and North Korea, that allow abortions at the 20-week period. The United States should not be part of that club.

I wonder how many of these Democrats who voted against protecting God’s most innocent and vulnerable children consider themselves to be Christians?

Biden is constantly harping on how Trump is a threat to democracy and will be a dictator, eliminating our freedoms. It is Biden, however, who has proven himself the dictator who is threatening democracy.

LETTER: More on 1968

As a cop who was at not only at the 1968 Democratic convention at the Conrad Hilton on Michigan Avenue, but also the Chicago arson fires on the west side, I feel there were many reasons why the city was a tinderbox.
