Letter to the editor: Judge people on their actions – Journal Inquirer

There was a front page article in the JI regarding derogatory comments directed toward Asian Americans made by Rep. Michael Winkler. The article included profound apologies.

I happen to know quite a few Asian Americans. None of them feel discriminated against nor do they find the comments insulting.

One of my family members had a problem with a government agency. After several weeks of frustrating and futile efforts of dealing with the agency, my family member called Mike Winkler. He responded immediately, and went right into action to resolve the problem. Obviously, he is concerned about all his constituents. Representative Winkler asked all the pertinent questions necessary to take care of the issue. One question he didnt ask was, What color is your skin?

Perhaps its time to stop dancing around political correctness when it comes to words and go back to judging people on their actions.
