To The Daily Sun,

What a disgusting letter from Ruth Larson in the weekend Laconia Daily Sun. Firstly, Norman Silber did not equate 'spin the bottle' with attempted rape. Secondly, if anyone watched the atrocious spectacle which was the Kavanough confirmation hearing, they know that there was no attempted rape. They also know that an attempted smearing of Kavanough by Democrats did not work.

About a decade ago, Hunter Taylor and Ruth Larson settled in Alton, having moved from New Jersey. New Jersey: the worst tax climate for business and the highest property taxes in the country per the Tax Foundation. Is it any wonder that Taylor and Larson do not see a spending problem that higher taxes would not cure? This is the culture from which they moved and which oozes from their pores.

Great fun to cherry pick a few bills which Ray Howard was for or against and say that you would do better. What Ruth Larson did not say is the positions for which she would be an advocate and which are antithetical to New Hampshire values: ever higher taxes, more government control of your life, restrictions on your second amendment rights (gun control).

Larson is a committed leftist, a former ACLU lawyer and an extremist that New Hampshire does not need in government.

I see Richard Burchell has brought his rant to the Laconia Daily Sun. The steadfast refusal by many republicans to spend even a penny on anything that doesn’t directly benefit them is a selfish example of a disturbing trend. Please open your mind just a little. There are other things to care about besides your guns and your money.

I see Mr. Dic Burchell has brought his rant to the Laconia daily sun. Anyone with a different view is a target for his callous judgement. This greedy view
