Kavanaugh critics should be good sports

October 17, 2018 12:00 am • Last Updated: October 17, 2018 5:18 pm

I was, as were many others, appalled at the wild people screaming at the Supreme Court building. Thankfully my parents brought me up to be a good sport and I have tried to follow their lead. I pray that the weeks and months that follow will show our country is indeed filled with good sportsmanship. We had enough poor sports after the 2016 election and now at the Justice Kavanaugh vote. Move on, people!
