Letter to the Editor

I have to agree with Rose Hembree concerning her opinion of The Boondocks comic strip on Jan. 8, "Comic strip is anything but comical." It is offensive and racist, to boot. It should be discontinued for sure. We have enough race troubles in this town, and I am sure there are many people who feel the same. Take a survey.

Gordon Bostrom, Augusta
