LETTERS

So Danny Hoch doesn’t like people different from him moving into his neighborhood [“There Goes the ‘Hood,” by Reed Johnson, Jan. 21]. Doesn’t like the color of their skin, the way they dress, talk, walk. Ring a few prejudiced bells? He even lamely tries to throw off his scent by tossing himself into the “do-gooder” category.

Please. I’d have more respect for the guy if he just fessed up to being the hate-spreading bigot that he is. Because as much as I despise bigots, I despise them less than cowardly hypocritical bigots trying to pass as social activists and community builders. Talk about a man in a “costume.”
