I am responding to the reaction in reference to my letter titled, “Most Fayette Voters drug addicts, criminals.”

I hate to burst the bubble of many Fayette Countians stepping forward in defending the community of Fayette County in this regard. My commentary was long overdue. It appears it was not a wake-up call, since many are taking the position that my letter is full of lies or misleading deceptive facts. It is rather an accumulation of events that have been transpiring in Fayette County for the past 25 years.

The current Fayette County sheriff, who is the leading law enforcement officer of Fayette County, has been continuously re-elected since 2000 simply because he has done nothing to offend the electorate of which the majority are drug addicts and criminals.

I may add when any candidate steps up to the plate with a platform to clean Fayette County of its drug and crime problem, he or she is doomed from the start.

I, as an example, in every election possessed the platform of making Fayette County a more prosperous county by eliminating the crime and drug problem to a tolerable level, which resulted in getting beat by a margin of 5 to 1 and, at times, 50 to 1.

Then Fayette County Assistant District Attorney Doug Sepic, a judicial candidate having billboards throughout Fayette County, saying, “Got Drugs. Go to Jail.” Well, he was next to last in the election. The majority of the electorate who are drug addicts and criminals could not have either of us to interfere with their illegal activities.

The above is just a mere example of the drug addicts and criminals being in total control of the vote of who gets elected or re-elected.

It is a proven record of the present and the past indiscretions and transgressions of the criminals with drug addicts being in total control. In fact, law enforcement in West Virginia, Maryland, Virginia and Ohio tells the drug dealer criminals that Fayette County, Pennsylvania, is a very safe haven for them and please go to Fayette County, Pa.

So, in conclusion, the drug dealers, addicts and criminals have chosen Fayette County’s destiny! Many outsiders refer to Fayette County as the devil’s country! It is simply the drug addicts and criminals who are bashing me on Facebook. The outsiders are clearly privy to this fact.
