Ungrateful view

To the editor:

When I read Monday’s story about how the Wakarusa Festival goers were upset by the police presence at the concert, I was infuriated. What did these people expect? And how ungrateful of them to not appreciate all of the work that the Douglas County Sheriff’s Department and others put into keeping them safe. If they cannot appreciate all that they did, then I guess it’s better that they not return for next year’s festival. I’d like to thank all of the officers who spent their days at the festival, even if the people they protected won’t.
