Letter: ‘Green Corner’ suggestion goes too far

Posted on Dec 26, 2012 - 11:28 AM Printer Friendly View

Editor, Gazette-Journal:

I do not know whether Ms. Guinn, who writes the "Green Corner" for your newspaper, is a true believer in global warming or if it is merely concern for her livelihood, but I do think she goes too far in urging her followers to trespass on their neighbors’ yards and porches and vandalize their light fixtures by removing existing incandescent light bulbs and replacing them with Ms. Guinn’s favored "curly fries." It is typical of the liberal to decide what is best for others and then force them to comply.

Jacqueline R. King

Achilles, Va.
