Rep. Scott Perry Response -- YDR editorial on castle doctrine unfair :: 06/19/2011
I have always had a great deal of respect for the editorial capability of newspapers to comment on the issues of the day, and I fully support the right of an individual newspaper to disagree with a position I happen to have. However, I must take issue with the York Daily Record editorial of June 12 titled "Anti-government rhetoric alarming."
I feel this editorial took a quote from another newspaper article completely and totally out of context. The original story, written by the Allentown Morning Call, quoted me as saying, "It's sad that we have to advocate for what is God-given and constitutionally given. We must be able not only to hunt but to protect ourselves from an overbearing government that does not do the will of the people. We would like to see crime diminish, and anything that empowers people to defend themselves is going to do that."
