The time has come to reclaim America

To the editor:

Our mission should always be to preserve the nobility of America’s character as one nation under God and a place where anybody’s dream can come true. The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights were the fulfillment of 1,000-plus years of western civilization. Our Constitution is the product of centuries of tradition, wisdom and experience. No political document has done more to advance the human condition or propel the engine of progress.

However today, a radical movement is demolishing this treasured and precious inheritance. This must not be allowed to continue.

Whether it is the radical statue-demolishing mob on the street or the cancel-culture strategy in many corporate boardrooms, the goal is the same: to silence dissent, scare individuals from speaking truth and bullying Americans into abandoning their values, heritage and their very way of life.

Now is the time to stand united to reclaim America for the citizens of every race, color, religion and creed with equal justice under the law.
