When is Ed Townsend going to get real? Again he complains, much like the time NFL players kneeled during the National Anthem. This time it's because a women's basketball team stayed off the court during the playing of the National Anthem.

Yet, to date I haven't read one word from him bemoaning the traitors and violent insurrectionists, from Trump, his cohorts, and a significant number of congressional officeholders. Not one word about the apparent contempt that some GOP members of the county legislature and other officeholders hold for their constituents. Not one iota about GOP sponsored voter suppression laws enacted in Republican-controlled states.

Where was his outrage as Republican senators rudely and crudely tried to spoil the nomination of a Black woman to the Supreme Court? I guess he saw no disrespect toward our country in that regard. I can't criticize him when he writes columns about gun ownership and sports--two subjects I have little interest in. But when he tries to imply that individuals who peacefully demonstrate for social justice are anti-American, I must speak out.

Obviously Ed Townsend is brimming with nationalist pride--too bad he hasn't a clue, or could care less as to what the United States stands for.
