Letter: Complaint about political sign destruction rings hollow

In response to the letter, "Destroying political signs is an act of cowardice" (Nov. 15): do not condone the destruction of political signs on anyone's property. It is not only criminal, but immature and in poor taste.

However, the hypocrisy of the letter-writer caught my eye. Here is someone lamenting, "Where is the tolerance for my free speech rights?," while simultaneously advocating that same-sex couples in Maryland be denied the right to marry.

It begs the question: Where is the writer's tolerance for gay citizens' human rights?
