April 10, 2025 Editor, The News Gazette I am not as articulate as many. I am not as educated as many. However, I am also not as stupid as many. I see what is happening in our country. It is not good.
I can read history as well as current events. The parallels between the development of dictatorships and the events in the United States today are obvious.
A country that exists for the benefit of one person and his cult followers is not what I consider a “sweet land of liberty.”
Look around. Unless you and I are going to do something now, our country, “The Great American Experiment,” is over.
A brown Jewish immigrant preaching “love your neighbor” in this country today certainly would not be welcomed. AMY HAYSLETTE Rockbridge County
