Editor,

I am troubled by the Daily Journal’s decision to publish the opinion piece “Refusing to look away” by Tovis Page. While opinion pieces allow for strong viewpoints, they do not relieve a newspaper of its responsibility to readers.

The view of the tape I saw showed the driver starting to accelerate into the Federal Agent standing in front of her left headlight. It would only have taken a couple seconds to run the officer over which gave the other officer standing at the driver's window no choice but to shoot her. But we'll have to wait until the investigations concludes before drawing a final conclusion.

Thanks for your letter, Ms. Xuereb. I can understand why you’re troubled by Ms. Page’s opinion piece. Personally, I’m glad the DJ published her piece because Ms. Page is showing us who she really is – not as an agent for good, but for the opposite. Have the seeds of discontentment sprouted and blossomed during the past decade or recently, due to being easily manipulated by those in the Democrat party who put the welfare of criminals and terrorists over the American people. There seems to be a recognized cohort of the population who are more easily manipulated than others. And unfortunately, this has resulted in the recent death of one who chose to use their vehicle as a deadly weapon. Woe to those kids and woe to those who choose to take Ms. Page’s words to heart. Remember, actions have consequences and you don’t want to engage in consequences you can’t recover from.
