Letter: Disgracing their forebears

Most Americans seem to agree the generation of men and women who rose to the challenge of World War II were our Greatest Generation. Back then, all Americans sacrificed to defend our democracy against the rise of fascism. They endured gasoline and food rationing to support the war effort, hundreds of thousands left their jobs and families to serve in the military, 407,000 Americans died and 671,000 were wounded. Many of those who returned from the war carried its horrors in their hearts until the day they died.

How will history regard the terrible minority of this generation who are doing our enemies’ bidding by spreading lies about vaccines, the snowflakes who refuse to wear a mask in public? They are the prime driver in the spread of the delta variant, the enemies of America are ecstatic over their actions. As the COVID snowflakes scream about their constitutional “rights,” they should know this: They have no right to help spread a deadly disease.

The COVID snowflakes are a clear and present danger to the safety and security of all Americans, and a disgrace to the memory and sacrifice of our Greatest Generation.
