I’ve never written to a newspaper before but feel so strongly about this that I needed to write at this time. I enjoyed the Fourth of July parade in Enumclaw.

It brings out the patriotism in people and that’s a good thing. I was, however, very surprised to see the flag of a foreign country being carried in the Fourth of July parade. I feel that tolerance and political correctness have been carried too far when the flag of another country is carried in a parade celebrating the independence of the United States of America. I hope that this is not repeated next year.
