Letters: I did not shoot the deputy

Among three letters on the deputy story, Linda Hunt writes, "It takes great courage for a law-enforcement agency to root out suspected criminal behavior within its ranks," and I have to wonder why in the world this might be accepted as conventional wisdom. If it is, it's pathetic.

    I think managers look at this like "Great, now we have to do something." It's a human resources nightmare and the deputy's arrest forces them to act.

    "I really do not care for the new arrangement of pages in the B section of the newspaper. I understand that Sports needs a fair shake but I expect to find the funnies and the Annie's Mailbox page paired together. I guess I am programmed that way but this new arrangement is annoying."

    how did this end up on the letters page?
    and how do we get this person to buy a clue?

I encourage you to share your own views and experience with me and other readers. How you do that matters, and I'm committed to maintaining a place where readers and commenters can feel safe from adolescent BS. So here's the deal:

There are two kinds of anonymous comments: those by people who have a genuine fear of revenge from the dark side, and those from darksiders just hiding to avoid accountability. You may post comments anonymously, but I reserve the right to treat anonymous comments as found items that belong to me and do with them as I see fit.

If, on the other hand, you're willing to stand by your convictions and post under your own name or a regular handle, your comments belong to you, and I'll edit them only on egregious violations of respect for others.

If this doesn't work for you, I'm sure you'll be happier somewhere else.
