The supposition that Jonathan Kraut tries to draw in his recent opinion piece (Oct. 27) that thin blue line flags that honor law enforcement are a “symbol of repression,” equivalent to flags of the Confederacy, is absurd. That’s like saying anyone who proudly flies the stars and stripes is a covert supporter of white militias. He also makes a huge, unsubstantiated leap, that anyone who supports law enforcement by flying the flag, “condones aggressive suppression of our rights.” I guess by Kraut’s standard, we can extrapolate that anyone who supports Black Lives Matter condones rioting, looting and attacks on the police.
