Sunday’s editorial (“After Roe falls, keeps protests peaceful”) reminded me of the joke, “But other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?” Your editorial spent a half page bemoaning a violent reaction while a 50-year civil right was stripped from women. There is no more fundamental right than having control over one’s body. I am sure Mrs. Lincoln had time to think about the play after she buried her husband.
