I would like to respond to a recent letter to the editor asking why are you a Democrat by asking why are you a Republican?

If you truly respect the Constitution, you would not attempt an insurrection by storming the Capitol in order to try to overturn a legally valid election. If you respect freedom you would not try to ban books, take a womans right to choose away from her or pass laws that affect transgender youth and gays and what is taught in our schools regarding slavery and racism. If you respect the law, you should be raising your voice in anger at the number of children that are killed in mass shootings in schools.

If we are under Republican law, I believe it wont be long before you and your family will have some freedom taken away from you if the Republicans dislike it or dont agree with it. So why are you still a Republican? Republicans claim socialism is one step away from communism. But how many of these socialist programs would you give up: Social Security, Medicare, CHIP, public libraries, EPA, museums, public parks, public schools, VA healthcare, zoos, free lunch program, Medicaid, FDA, unemployment insurance, workers compensation, public transportation and many, many more.

Consider changing your registration from Republican to Democrat. Send a message to the Republican Party that you are indeed tired of waiting for common sense change.
