LORI STURDEVANT LORI STURDEVANT @Sturdevant
Vote this Tuesday to seize the present opportunity to solve this state’s chronic problems, not to soothe overwrought fear of change, I counseled Minnesotans in this space last week.
Then came more than a dozen mailed pipe bombs to prominent U.S. liberals and the murders of 11 elderly Jews in their own synagogue in Pittsburgh — both crimes apparently committed by men who had consumed large doses of fearmongering political rhetoric. Then came more attacks on a free press, more hostility toward asylum-seekers, and more zeal to strip citizenship from immigrants’the U.S. Constitution —
Events of the past 10 days have raised an alarm in me and, evidently, in many others about the nation’s current capacity to govern itself democratically and peaceably.
Undeniably, racial bigotry and violence are part of America’s story. But so is the striving of ordinary people to live

I have deleted most of this article. There were some excellent points that we could have talked about, discussed , but I guess we can’t now.
