Dear Mrs. Cassidy,

Thank you for your letter expressing concern over the failure of our police department to respond to your 911 call regarding the armed burgler in your dwelling.
Having read with interest your sincere expression that a statue of a war hero carrying his weapon glorified violence. We decided to take very seriously your anti-gun stance.

As you know members of the police force do carry weapons and at times may even have to discharge these weapons in the carrying it of your duties. We are too respectful of the diverse views of this community to force upon them exposure to a practice which they find repugnant. Especially as you are so clear in your desire from keeping your children from such glorificiation of violence.

We concluded that no doubt you prefered a non confrontational approach to your situation. Instituting a dialogue of mutual respect and regard for the diversity between one who wants to hold onto property and the one who wishes to relieve the property from the tyranny of claims of ownership.

You of course may supply us with a list of serial numbers for those liberated articles. We do hope your stay at the hospital is brief and you return to your sacked and looted home very soon.

Sincerely,

Chief of Police.

That would be sooo cool if the chief of police really did write a letter like that. Of course, most police chiefs are anti-gun, but many of the officers on the street are still on our side. Maybe one of them could write the letter.
