There's certainly no lack of cowardly acts in our society. The victims of the latest cowardly act is yours truly and it cost $260 to fix. Right after my latest letter appeared in The Citizen, upon approaching my motor vehicle I noticed my driver's side mirror smashed to smithereens. Ah, yes, the middle of the night certainly does bring out the cowards to perform their cowardly acts. What a disgrace that the society we live in has people in it that have nothing better to do than the deeds of the devil. Who's to blame for these out of control people? What is it that drives them to commit malicious cowardly acts?

Retaliation is certainly a factor and I believe that was the motive for the breaking of my driver's side mirror. I am well aware that my weekly letters bring out the devil in some people. And these people certainly have no qualms about doing the work of the devil.

So, how many more times will these cowardly acts of malicious wanton, criminal behavior go on unchecked? I just can't fathom why anyone would sink to rock bottom of doing something destructive that serves no useful purpose. For most people, life is hard enough. Why make it harder? People work, take care of their children, have bills to pay have medical and dental problems. They don't need the problems that wanton acts of criminal destruction create. People responsible for wanton acts of destruction need to grow up and get a life. There is no life in being and acting like a low-down jerk. Too many in our society have that cowardly, punk-like mentality. In the end where will it get anyone? If the person responsible is reading this letter, you now know what you are, a coward and a irresponsible criminal who is nothing more than a loathsome terror to society. I have a good clue who you might be and you know who I'm talking about you cowardly criminal living in a twilight zone.
