LETTER: The march of political correctness

In response to John Stossel’s May 23 commentary, I would add that political correctness should have been killed in its infancy 30 years ago. But because some thought it too cute or funny and did not oppose its censorship, it has morphed into spying, harassment, targeting, indicting and canceling people with opposing thoughts. We have been in a soft tyranny for two decades that is worsening by the day.

I like Ron DeSantis’s bywords: Never back down. Tyranny will continue to increase if we do not speak freely while we yet may.

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.

LETTER: Clark County cracks down on street vendors

A lot of us walk or jog in the summer nights when it cools down. The juice vendor was a wonderful break before starting the return half of our exercise. Alas, never more.
