Critics of letters to the editors should care more

Wednesday, September 17, 2008 11:47 PM EDT

How odd that all my critics over a two-decade period have had no complaints about matters they should have complaints about, but only about my letters. Let's see now, what have I written about during that two decade time span that upsets these critics?
I wrote about my illegal firing by City Hall, which the city was eventually found guilty of. People were critical about me writing about it and that I should just move on. Are you kidding me? What kind of person takes that lying down? If I didn't fight it tooth and nail, how could I live with myself? There are certain things you have to do in life and fighting injustice should be one of them.

From there, I have moved on to fighting other injustices such as discrimination, patronage in jobs paid for by the public, unfair wages, exploitation of the American work force.

From there I started writing about God and how he expects all Christians to fight injustices for His sake.

From there I went to writing about bad government, unnecessary wars, unnecessary war profiteering, unnecessary injuries, deaths, making the rich wealthier at the expense of the poor and government's total abandonment of helping anyone except the ultra-wealthy. Tell me, all you critics out there, on which one of these topics have I been wrong? Let me throw in bad driving and how destructive it can be for victims of it. Good drivers, because of all the bad drivers, have to pay high motor vehicle insurance rates.

Tell me, all you critics out there, are these topics not worth talking about?

What about all the people who can't afford health insurance? Isn't that topic worthy of discussion? I understand that it's mostly an I, me and mine world out there and most could care less about anyone else, but there are some who do care. I care. And that separates me from my critics who obviously don't and never will care.

" All of them Murray were spot on and worthy of discussion. The only problem is that you keep bringing religion into it. Leave that out and people will cut you a little more slack, maybe. "
