I want to thank John Mishler of Harpswell for his July 26 letter, “Equal rights under the law? Prove it.”
He is correct and I will add there has never been equal rights in this nation since the first signing in 1776.
Equal rights has been an illusion, a lie that most people have accepted as fact.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way.
