We can’t take it any more! Please stop reporting on the behavior of sick
individuals from the Mainland and foreign countries in your “World” and
“Nation” sections. On March 16, you printed these stories:
* “Serial Killer
Sentenced to Public Strangling.” This happened in Pakistan. Do we need to know
about this?
* “10-Year-Old Charged with Killing Father Over Sweets.” This
happened in New Jersey, thousands of miles from here.
We could fill a book
with examples. Who chooses these, stories? Consider firing the person
responsible. You are perpetuating violence.
We have vowed not to buy The
Garden Island until you clean up your act. Furthermore, we have e-mailed this
message to all of our friends – the damage is done! To woo us back, drop the
violent tales and add more stories about people who are making a
difference.
Kaua’i is teeming with mentally-healthy, loving, giving
people. Set an example for other newspapers. Become leaders-not
sheep!
Disappointed in The Garden Island,
