Letter to the editor: The flag is still worth flying

To the editor:

We flew our flag on July Fourth, not because we agree with the current outrageous efforts to undermine the foundations of our republic, but because we continue to believe in our ability to meet the current challenges and continue to strive to realize the promises made in the Declaration of Independence. We are ashamed of today’s regressive environment, but we are proud of how far we have come and optimistic about how much progress we will make in the future.

Ray Hiner,

Lawrence
