To the Editor:

I would like to answer Brian McDonough’s letter (in the June 1 Eagle). Watching Fox news this morning, June 2, it reported two policemen were shot as well as two criminals in New Hampshire.

He has a lot of nerve to badmouth Grant County from all the way across the United States.

We have a great county. We have great people. His example of two bad characters is totally unfair at most. And to badmouth our sheriff is even worse. Glenn Palmer is a fine man who loves our county and its people. He is also a very fine sheriff. He doesn’t encourage only law breakers to come to Grant County.

My anger over this letter coming from out of state makes it impossible to comment further.
