Letter writer defeats his argument on sexual harassment

Jon Joseph’s Jan. 24 letter to the editor was a shining example of the very issue he wrote in to criticize. He indicated that explicit online content (pictures, in his case) gives him and others the right to harass women. If he can be so easily titillated into “wanting to commit harassment” (his words), perhaps he should recognize that he is part of the problem.

It is surprising that he could so aggressively miss the point of a movement which has been trying desperately to explain that women are not responsible when men harass them.

LETTER: Is there another Joe Biden out there?

Both the front-runner presidential candidates should step aside and give us some choices who are younger and have fresh ideas to get us out of the $35 trillion debt.

LETTER: Deciphering progressive jargon

I noticed recently that euphemisms are commonly used by progressives in order to make the agenda they support seem less harsh or unpleasant.
