I read with interest the article in the Sept. 10 edition of the Graphic about political yard signs and some local residents’ outrage that signs representing both major parties appear to have been stolen.

The anger at these minor offenses is misplaced given the real political crimes being committed daily in our major cities. Riots, arson, looting, intimidation, and attempted assassinations are where we should focus our concern. These activities are truly “cruel, immoral and un-American.”
