Letter: Apology unnecessary

By
Published:

First, I want to thank all our service men and women for protecting our country. Thanks also to Roelof Benink and his family who had to be subjected to that event described in his May 21 letter, “Dropping bombs saved lives.”

Both my father and my father-in-law served in World War II. On that Sunday morning when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, my father-in-law helped pick lots of our dead sailors out of the water. If you remember our history, we were not at war with the Japanese at that time.

Why is it that the great America now has to go around and apologize to people?

And for all you people who have never been in war or who have never lost anyone to war, you are welcome. That’s because many others have and that’s why you can sit back and whine about this and be all PC about things you really don’t know anything about. I am thankful for both my dads and my grandfather and my brother who went to war and made it back.

Be thankful you live in a country where you have the freedom to say what you want. God bless America.
