Letter to the editor: Won't vote Republican again

Why I will never vote Republican again:

1. I believe Republicans have contributed more to gun violence in this country than anything anyone has done in our history by allowing and encouraging millions of guns to drown our society.

2. Republicans seem to sit back and ignore the daily mass shootings in this country and hope that we will accept them as part of everyday life; already 147 mass shootings in 2021.

3. Republicans brought us Donald Trump, in my opinion the most dangerous president in recent memory.

4. Republicans brought us lies as a way of life.

5. Based on Republican lies, they now bring us more voter suppression laws.

6. Who can accept a party that makes it harder to vote while making it easier to get guns? Votes don’t kill people.

7. In my opinion, Republicans have endorsed racism and hate not seen since Nazi Germany used hate to justify the slaughter of millions of people.

In my lifetime, I never thought I would see such hatred solely based on a person’s beliefs or because someone is a different color or practices a different religion.
