So, can I be so bold as to suggest to those who do respond please do so as
if you would like to be the Scham's friend or at least an aquaintance.>>>>>>
Ruth,
You truly are a diplomat, and your temperance and tolerance is admirable,
and you make a compelling argument on a knowledgeable soapbox, ....but, in this
case, is diplomacy the best strategy? ...in this case, I would not want to
befriend him, ...but if you can, and therefore significantly influence his
opinions and attitudes, you will deserve an award. I often have that kind of
patience, just not this week.
Here's a copy of my letter to Schram, which may be deemed blunt or downright
harsh, .... nevertheless, I cc'd this letter to the station admin also,
.....I just don't want him to think he can get away with such nonsense
unchallenged:
<<<Dear Mr. Schram,
How embarrassing for you and the people who associate with you, that you
would broadcast such ignorance and antiquated attitudes on KOMO 4 News. I hope
your superiors are more knowledgeable, educated, and bright, and offer you
your seemingly overdue retirement package, or just plain tell you "You're Fired!"
You said: <<Yeah, I know. .......It's natural. .........Well, so is
urinating, but most folks don't up and pee in a glass jar in the middle of the
mall.>>
Another newsperson on KOMO 4 News put it *so well* "What an Idiot!"
It is a shame to have to explain this, but, urinating is for restrooms, in
some parts of the world anyway, ....eating is for wherever people eat, ...and
babies are people, and breast are primarily for producing milk for human
babies.
Breastfeeding in public is not the problem, you are.
Ashamed of you,
