Forgetting privacy

Thank you for printing the letter of Mt. Lebanon Democratic Committee member Ninamary Langsdale ("Robo Reflection," June 19). These are trying times that our country finds itself in today, and I am grateful that a complete stranger is kind enough to provide me with such a good laugh that my morning coffee almost came out of my nose. To defend robocalls is one thing, but to actually associate them with patriotism and honoring the service and sacrifice of our brave military is not only quite comical but strangely scary.

What's truly frightening is that Ms. Langsdale, despite holding a position on a political committee, fails to recognize that the intrusiveness of these robocalls violates one of our most basic and sacred rights as Americans, our right to privacy.
