Opinion page cartoon was ‘disdainful’

To The Herald-Whig:

In the Dec. 4 issue of the Herald-Whig, on the Opinion page was a bigoted cartoon titled “Body Cameras for Everyone.” Panel one pictured a white, mean-looking policeman; panel two, a young-looking innocent black in a hoodie; panel three a white harassed lady; panel four, a pompous white male.

This picture may satisfy the readers of the “Daily Worker,” but to a taxpaying, U.S. veteran white male, it is disdainful. You can do better.
