LETTER: Canaries in the coal mines
January 8, 2025 - 9:01 pm
So the military member who exploded the Tesla in front of Trump Tower on the morning of Jan. 1 wrote that it wasn’t terrorism, it was a “wake-up call” to America. Isn’t that similar to what Luigi Mangione was yelling when he was taken into custody in Pennsylvania for killing the health-care executive?
These are not random acts. They are the symptoms of a failing society, and they are truly the voices of “the canaries in the coal mine,” and we need to listen.
