Fire Andrew Dreschel

The Issue

You know when people say that sometimes opinions should just be kept to yourself? Andrew Drescher's article in The Hamilton Spectator where he calls Cpl. Nathan Cirillo an "accidental hero" would be that time.

Andrew Dreschel is, by far, one of the most heartless individuals I have ever come across. He should be ashamed of himself, and The Hamilton Spectator should be embarrassed to have him as a writer for their newspaper.

I'm not saying that it's not okay to voice an opinion, but to do so 9 days after a tragedy, when the wounds are still fresh, a family is in mourning and people are trying to pick up the pieces and heal, is absolutely revolting.

This is why I am calling for the firing of Andrew Dreschel.
