Airport Amoral
I was disappointed that a Mission Viejo clergyman, the Rev. John Steward, would abuse his position by making the questionable statement that building an airport or a jail without residents’ approval is immoral (Sept. 1).
Just who does he believe to be immoral for the decision to make the El Toro base a commercial airport? Is it the citizens of Orange County who voted for it in two elections, or the four supervisors who voted to carry out the will of the people?
Steward apparently does not understand that when one moves to a highly populated metropolitan area, sacrifices are required.
