Recent Letters To The Editor

Sometimes I feel like Don Quixote, slashing away at broken windmills with my rusty lance, but if you see wrong and refuse to speak up, is that not a greater wrong?

Raleigh is an awesome place, and I love it here. The energy, the vibrancy and so on just make me feel alive. One thing that does sadden me is the sense of disconnect between the upper class and the poor. I guess that happens everywhere, but it seems worse here than it was in other cities I have lived in.

Recently there was an article in The News and Observer (the daily paper in Raleigh) talking all about how prostitution represents a blight on the city and how it is driving down property values.

Well, that bothered me (imagine that!) so here is my humble response. They actually edited out a line, but honestly, it was a bit off topic and the letter does read better this way.

My friend and pastor Bill also felt motivated to write a letter, and his can be read here.
