Letter: Signs of the time
As the Chair of the Pima County Democratic Party, I learn very quickly of the (criminal) defacement and theft of signs supporting Harris / Walz. Although not uncommon in prior elections, it has reached epidemic proportions in this cycle. My sources tell me it is being encouraged by Republican Party leadership both locally and nationally, notwithstanding the deeply undemocratic nature of it or the potentially criminal liability to those caught in the act. Those committing these acts reveal themselves as Americans impoverished of any true patriotism - fearful of anyone challenging their insecurities. I understand enforcement is difficult, but it underscores the moral weakness of those who do this. I encourage that Dems should not retaliate in kind. Independents should take note as their alignment is especially critical in 2024.
