Today in the Lewiston Morning Tribune, the first letter to the editor was from a young husband and father of two. In addition to being a student at one of the local colleges, he was a delivery man for a pizza parlour. Being a science major, he placed a bumper sticker on his vehicle that says, "Darwin Loves You." He said he thought it was funny, maybe mildly obnoxious at the most, but no big deal.
Some one called his employer and raised a fuss about the bumper sticker. His supervisor told him that he had the choice of losing the bumper sticker or taking a position in the parlour making three dollars an hour less than his current position. He decided to quit rather than choose one of those options.
In his letter, he wrote about our troops supposedly fighting for our rights which we are no longer able to use in this country.
Additionally, one of the paper's editors wrote a very sympathetic column about this letter and noted how crazy things have become and how the thought police are lurking in every corner. He made the point about what would have happened if the guy had lost his job over a bumper sticker that said, "Jesus Loves You."
Just another day in Fascist America.
