Reader urges love, respect for new police chief

FOR THE DAILY SOUTHERNER Maebelle Lawrence The Daily Southerner Mon Jun 04, 2012, 02:01 PM EDT

TARBORO — To the Editor:

I am a concerned citizen who has lived in Tarboro most of my life and I have never read such nonsense about the hiring of the new police chief, saying if he had any respect he would not have accepted the job.

Is there anybody in his or her right mind not accepting a job today?

The new chief is not the only person from out of town who has been hired by the Town of Tarboro in the last year and, I know there were people here in Edgecombe County who were qualified — but nobody said anything or wrote anything in the paper about hiring them.

So, have some respect, try not to hurt anyone’s feelings and show them some love and respect.

If the flags in Tarboro are not flying at half-staff, then they should be as a true patriot, hero, and Christian has died.

Your coverage on the gun control debate was fair and accurate and I have fought against gun control my whole life. The sad thing is this time the American public is haunted by the ghosts of 20 innocent children and the claims by the proponents for assault weapons is making all gun owners look callous and uncaring.

One of the things I love most about returning home to my beloved Tarboro is escaping the grueling crush of northern Virginia and nasty Washington politics.

After Christmas, and after picking up a friend at his house near Hartford, Conn., we were bogged down in holiday traffic.
