THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT

July 8, 2016

Dear Hildie:

What a terrible week. For the country, I mean—all these shootings. I can’t figure the shooting of the man in Baton Rouge. The police officer who did it seems to have a good record and yet the video leaves him with a lot of questions to answer.  I have to give it to the mayor, the governor, and Councilwoman Denise Marcelle for keeping a lid on things, though that can’t go on forever. It’s hot, tempers are frayed, and it won’t take much for things to take fire.

All I can say is keep safe.

 

Love,

 

M
