My mother-in-law has me on her political mailing list. I frequently get emails espousing views which I find at the least disagreeable or at the worst offensive. They invariably end with the instructions to forward if you agree with the writer's views, but if you disagree, simply delete the message. In the interests of family harmony, I do the latter, often rolling my eyes.
Saturday I got another one -- an anti-immigrant, "why can't you people be just like us?" screed. Instead of following the writer's instructions to delete, I sent an answer to everyone on my MIL's mailing list.
Hell, if Cindy Sheehan can stand in a ditch in Texas in the August heat, the least I can do is write an email.
( My E-mail. It's not very well written -- it was Saturday morning before I had coffee -- but at least it's something. The original email is in italics. )
