Student demonstrations show the country is in good hands

I am not an anti-gun advocate, but I have been very impressed by the way our young people are handling the nationwide protests.

There have been no overpaid football players dishonoring our flag and all that it stands for. There have been no reports of innocent storekeepers’ businesses being broken into in order to steal new TVs or cases of beer. There have been no burning of businesses or shooting of police officers during these demonstrations. No one’s right to express their views has been taken away.

There is a segment of our society that can learn a lesson from these young people on how to demonstrate peacefully while making an impression on all of America. I believe America’s future is in good hands.

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.
