Schimel gets unfair shake

The Island Now

Regarding the Our Views column: “Schimel Shakes,” I find the writing to be demeaning and disrespectful.

No newspaper should even think about finding joy writing of other persons difficulties in their personal life.

Michelle Schimel has done well representing all the people of her district. She has taken care of our minor and  major problems and her office has always been freely available to  all. Michelle has made it her business to get to know many  of us personally as well as supporting local organizations.

I am wondering why letters to the editor must include writer’s name and phone number, while the Our View writer remains unnamed.
