Dear Editor:
It is ironic how in seven months certain people and groups of people have disrespected America, case in point an Olympian turned her back to the singing of the National Anthem and was basically given a thumbs up by the Biden administration that it was okay to turn her back. She is there to represent the USA and she has the audacity to basically spit and set fire to the flag. She might have also been mad because she didn't take first place. Maybe if she doesn't like what is going on then don't represent our nation and go get a real job. Nobody asked you to represent the USA; it was of your own free will. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her thugs need to quit worrying about what happened Jan. 6 and deal with the destruction that is being caused by the Democrats. They want to defund the police but if you look at the protesters they are mostly young people of all races with no respect for this country. Crime is going up in major cities and U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez - go figure a Democrat - basically said we have no problem with violence. Maybe she should walk down the streets of New York without bodyguards and see if she doesn't get accosted or killed. But the cowards who represent this nation and New York are ignorant and don't care about the problem or the citizens of New York. Americans in my opinion are stockpiling ammo and guns, because the Democrats are supporting defunding police, which has led to crime rates going up and probably no end in sight. It will lead to longer time for the police to show up and, in my opinion, the Biden Administration turns a deaf ear to this problem like it isn't a problem. In my opinion, if President Trump was still in office things would be a whole lot better and this country would be America - not whatever the Democrats decide it is and it has only been eight months since the Democrats have taken over Washington. God help us all.
