Herald-Sun letters to the editor 11/2/2004

Emily Fleischaker did a good job in her Sunday article about the Bush sign
stealing. But how could anyone know that those who stole the signs were
communists? Because people's actions prove what they are. Stealing campaign
signs indicates a disrespect for private property and free speech rights,
traits shared by communists. A sad result of communist ideas exists among
scofflaws and vandals in East Durham, where a good kid has a hard time
owning a bicycle and keeping it from being stolen. The ones who steal bikes
think they know better (as do communist governments) as to who should have
and not have. Winking at stealing on any level is a slippery slope for
civilization.
