To The Daily Sun,
I've been writing letters here in the paper for a good number of years and I am constantly amazed how other writers who call themselves liberals do not seem to have a liberal bone in their bodies.They are never tolerant of opposing thought and ideas, constantly bring up the catch phrase of "critical thinking," but then instead of using it, smear or slander any conservative who disagrees with them. And whoa to anyone supporting our dully-elected president or wearing a red MAGA cap on a collage campus, where the liberal response is to punch that person in the face.
Such is the state of civility in our politically-correct America. So our question should be, what does critical thinking really mean? For example I see groups like ANTIFA and BLM, who declare themselves liberal, then go out and riot, loot, burn, intimidate and assault their political opposition and my thinking is that is irrational and radical. Apparently that doesn't occur to many on the left, who justify such behavior. And I have to say it reminds me of the tactics of the NAZIs, fascists and communists in the 1920s and 30s. This is not a smear just an observation and who with a straight face can tell me there is even the slightest comparison on the right?
Two or three weeks ago I challenged anyone to tell me on what legal grounds President Trump should be impeached? I ask again because not a single rational case was made. They claim he lied, but that isn't a crime, they call him a racist (I deny that), even so that's not a crime, Russian collusion, no case can be made for that nor is that a crime besides a stronger case for that can be made against Obama and Hillary.
Now I don't know what more Democrats in Washington need to recognize that the crisis on the boarder is real? I don't know what more local Democrats need, unless it's one of their loved ones that suffers due to the outrageous negligence being demonstrated by their leadership? The facts have been presented as clearly as possible and even I have relayed them here in this paper several times.but just denying there reality changes nothing except perhaps the narrative that they operate from moral high ground.
It's not just on this issue where the high ground has been abdicated. In the past couple of years of glaring corruption on the part of the FBI and the Justice Dept., as well as the abuse against women by big Democrat supporters, while more recently blatant antisemitism by high profile elected Dems, make it clear that party has no claim on morals or integrity over their opposition.
The left throws itself with reckless abandon at any false accusations made against a conservative. Most recently it was Jessee Smollett in Chicago but the line of this history goes back through the Catholic school boys, the Justice Kavanaugh hearings, the Russian collusion nonsense, and back before Trump was even on the political map. A thug tried to kill a police officer after robing a store and the "Hands up don't shoot" fallacy was created; a known drug dealer arrested, put in a van died and all five police officers faced charges, go all the way back to the Duke lacrosse team — never a shortage of false accusations against the innocents especially if they are white. Social justice or lynch mobs? Critical thinking or by any means? No this is not you fathers Democratic Party anymore.
There are no shortage of examples of increased crime and violence due to illegals and sanctuary-city policies. Jesse Jacinto, a fugitive from charges of raping a 14-year-old girl in N. Carolina last year escaped into Mexico but was recently captured trying to reenter the country at Laredo Texas. He was arrested and has been extradited back to N.C. Javier Hernandez Mgrales, a criminal deported three times already was back in Napa County, Calif. where his car was stopped by a deputy sheriff. He didn't get a ticket because he opened fire on the officer but missed. She didn't and fired 15 rounds into the car, killing the criminal. It was by the grace of God that another officer wasn't killed.
We need a wall, we need high tech equipment, we need to deport criminals, drug dealers, human traffickers, antisemitic's and anti-Americans. Why do Democratic's not support these things?

The answer to all these questions why the democrats are turning the country upside down is that THEY HATE TRUMP and anybody who voted for him. They have cast all reason aside. They mean to remove him and us, and take control of America to establish a Socialist/Communist utopia by force. But first they must get rid of our guns.
