A note of encouragement is in order for Rogers Rabbits in the face of S Rawson's criticism (September 7). And bravo for publishing critics of your own views; it's admirable. Humorous or satirical writings are fair play as long as they don't overstep certain unwritten laws, as seen by recent Democrat comedians recently.

Clearly S Rawson doesn't like the term ‘political correctness', Donald Trump, conservative thought, controlled immigration, and climate change skepticism. She appears to gather these people into a group she calls 'bigots” – watch out how you point the index finger please, and especially when you invoke the bigot word!

Rawson's final word concerns not reading such prejudiced columns, which is probably a good idea for 'progressive” thought. Getting her steady diet of CNN on One or Three News and maybe even the NYT concerning the President will confirm to Rawson that Donald J Trump falls into this deplorable group of other-thinking people.

Good heavens, is she watching the same media who predicted in the aftermath of the Hillary trouncing that the US economy was heading for the toilet? Hooray for free speech!
