Letter: Comments disturbing to longtime RV owner

I'm happily married and the father of two children. I've owned an RV for 16 years, traveling 90,000 miles across this incredible country of ours. I've stayed in literally a hundred RV parks from Maine to Washington, meeting innumerable other fellow RVers who rank among the nicest, caring and hospitable folks I've ever encountered.

So imagine my surprise to learn that not only am I more than likely a pedophile, but also a criminal. All because I "drive an RV." This nugget of wisdom comes courtesy of our very own Donald Trump, aka Evva Anderson, esteemed member of the Beaufort County school board.

How comforting to know the school-age children in Beaufort County are being represented by such an open-minded and knowledgeable elected official.
