“If you’re afraid to offend, you can’t be honest.” — Thomas Paine
People who look around Lewiston will see the validity of this statement.
Flunking public schools that have been sporadically closed over the past two years.
Rising crime. Homelessness caused partly by out-of-staters.
A retail district with little retail but plenty of nonprofit agencies.
These and many more conditions have been brought on by our current state representatives who are afraid to offend the Woke, the academic crowd and the teachers union.
Our current representatives appear more afraid of criticism from these groups than their constituents.
Robert Macdonald, Lewiston
