Sherrod Brown and Rep. Marcia Fudge \u2014 now nominated for a Biden cabinet position \u2014 have been sadly unwilling to address to any effect. They are radical failures.<\/p>\n<p>As to The New York Times, it is not written for the people who actually live on the streets of the big cities and have seen what McManus describes, but for yoga-practicing elites who read best-selling non-fiction books, attend art museums and support unlimited abortions.<\/p>\n<p>Thank God that Ohio Gov. Mike DeWines has just signed the state\u2019s first \u201cstand your ground\u201d law, allowing Clevelanders to defend themselves against this surge in crime.<br \/><em>Jeff Barge, Cleveland, Ohio<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Trump\u2019s Ga. shame<br \/><\/strong>Now, is there any question of the deviousness of President Trump to pressure a fellow Republican to perform an illegal act (\u201c\u2018Fellas, I Need 11K Votes,\u2019\u200a\u201d Jan. 4)?<\/p>\n<p>Pure and simple. Just because Trump said the Georgia voting count was wrong, without any proof, does not make it so. The facts are the facts. The data spoke for themselves, confirmed by his own Republican colleagues.<\/p>\n<p>This goes beyond what any previous president in history has done. He has been caught in the act of eliciting an illegal act. If this is not the act of a desperate, and devious individual, then what is?<\/p>\n<p>This surely goes beyond him trying to prove a hurricane was to hit Alabama with a doctored weather map. Enough. Is this the president of the United States or an autocrat we revolted against some 244 years ago?<br \/><em>Michael Costagliola, Monroe Township, NJ<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>NYPD goes West<br \/><\/strong>The already-decimated NYPD is losing more much-needed presence on the streets by sending detectives out to California to question \u201cSoho Karen\u201d who is being charged with \u2014 what? (\u201cNYPD aids Calif. bust of \u2018Karen,\u2019\u200a\u201d Jan. 8)<\/p>\n<p>Possibly larceny or assault for touching a 14-year-old boy, accusing him falsely of grabbing her cellphone?<\/p>\n<p>The city is broke, we\u2019re in the midst of a 1980s-type crime wave and our mentally disturbed leaders are wasting money and sorely needed police presence, calling what she did a hate crime because the young man is black.<\/p>\n<p>This kind of nonsense goes on all the time in every big city in the world, but to pacify Mayor de Blasio, the commissioner has to play this tune. Come on, New York \u2014 wake up and get rid of these \u201cwoke\u201d bumbling politicians before the city becomes totally unlivable. It\u2019s getting too close now.<br \/><em>Henry Moskowitz, Forest Hills<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Kill Kim coverage<br \/><\/strong>I love reading The Post and give you kudos for reporting on the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> that other papers suppress or will not report.<\/p>\n<p>However, I fail to understand how Kim Kardashian\u2019s desire to divorce her husband is worthy of front-page news (<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pagesix.com\/2021\/01\/05\/kim-kardashian-kanye-west-getting-a-divorce-shes-done\/\">\u201cKim &amp; Kanye go bust,\u201d <\/a>Jan. 6). Even more disturbing is how Kardashian chooses to dress or not dress.<\/p>\n<p>No wonder adolescent suicide is on the rise. When young people experience life as meaningless, living and the challenges of life become overwhelming and not worth the pain.<\/p>\n<p>I hate to say it, but these individuals should not be the role models that our youth look up to.
