I do not ordinarily write letters for my own causes and the other than my ordinary NRA dues I do not contribute money to political causes. For this issue, I will depart from my pattern and work for the defeat of people who held their fingers to the wind to inform their change of heart.
I can understand not making a specific civil rights argument at an inopportune moment for the purpose of preserving one's career. However, there is a material difference between staying silent when words will not suffice and affirmatively saying the wrong thing.
