Dear Editor:
What a shame!!! Our weak-kneed Politicians of both parties have brought us to a place where there is no real penalty for breaking the law. For this reason, citizens are unsafe in their homes and communities, property is being stolen daily and our roads are more dangerous by far since the credo of personal responsibility has been flushed down the sewer by politicians whose only interest is in getting re-elected.
We hire and train more police who learn that most of their keeping the peace and enforcing the laws are a joke because political forces have ensured that the turnstile criminal justice system only mocks their efforts.
And when we point out the irresponsibility of our affected officials, they turn to us and explain, “It isn’t me, it’s them, that has let you down! We are on your side!”
When will we wake up and see that most of our political class has sold us out?
