I just wrote a letter to the editor....

....about the drug activity in our neighborhood.

I'm petrified to send it.  I fear retaliation.

  • I feel like people will still know it's me. 

    This is awful, but I kind of, inadvertently, sound like I'm not white.  Which would be the only thing that would make people NOT think it's me.  There are only two white families on my street.  Well, there is a 3rd, but they are older.  So they wouldn't write anything about children.

    Do drug dealers read the letters to the editor?

    I'm not even scared of the dealers because I think they are a lot smarter than the buyers.  They are actually pretty friendly with us.

    I do agree though.. do you really think the drug dealers are reading the letters to the editor??

    I feel like with the culture of where I live, people really think that the drug problem is a non-white/low income problem.  It isn't.  Soooo, the person "complaining" *must not be white*  :::gasp:::

    In other words, I live in a very racist community.
