It's Outrageous!
Editor,

What is happening here? The world has gone mad, but what is this persecution of the Saunders' farm here in Philipstown? We all know the family, 91-year-old Risi, Sandy and Betsy, we know they have high ideals and high energy to stick up for them. Their hospitality and inclusiveness is extraordinary, from the annual Easter egg hunt, the Summer barn dance, to the tiny children's nativity that Reverend Geere conducts in the barn each Christmas, and more That barn, we've all seen it, there's never been anything to hide, we bring our children there to see the gentle animals. We know the Saunders love animals, why else would it all continue. And these silly cruel accusations that make no sense at all are definitely putting a nasty sorry end to it all.

Imagine Sandy in jail for a year, that's what's at risk now. What does this say for us all?
