Killer litter: Raymond's letter to the Straits Times (ST)

My letter to the Straits Times on on the woman who displayed signs of bizzzare behaviour was published today, Friday 18th December 2009 in the ST Forum page, A30.

P.S. I will continue to wage an all out war againts those who discriminate and ill treat all people with mental illnesses, the sick and the elderly.

Thanks
Raymond Anthony Fernando

MY POINT

Killer litter:
“I refer to Tuesday's report, “Killer litter flowerpot injures guest at wedding”. People whose marriages break down are likely to fall into depression or become unstable. What I find disturbing is that although neighbours were aware that the 34-year-old woman was displaying signs of bizarre behaviour, no one bothered to get her help. The crowd that cheered and clapped as police led the woman away should feel ashamed of their behaviour. The mark of a civilised society is the way it treats its least privileged, the sick and the elderly.”
