‘Love Doesn’t Have A Color’ Letter Of The Week From March 13

Karen Boone and family, I am so sorry. The letter you received was no less than an act of war by an ignorant and cowardly individual.

Unfortunately it is difficult to fight the ignorant and cowardly who dwell among us. Because they are ignorant, they speak without knowledge. Because they are cowards, they hide in shadows or behind others as warped as themselves. They are no less than a disease upon our society.

I know that if I were in your shoes, I would not have been so calm and collected in my reply.

I assume the person who did this is white, as I am, but it doesn’t matter. Whatever color they are, they did not choose to be, and God did not choose it, either. Love doesn’t have a color.

I’m embarrassed and ashamed for that person. This despicable act said far more about those people who allegedly think and act like the writer of that trash than anyone else.

There is a cure for this disease and the individuals who embrace it so eagerly. The cure is education. Until we make that the No. 1 priority in this nation we shall suffer the damage the ignorant, the cowardly and the truly worthless bring upon us.

May God bless you and your family. Thank you for your courage. You make Spokane proud. David Bray Spokane
