To the Editor:

Re “Leaving Europe for a Lie” (column, June 28):

Roger Cohen begins by referring to the “stupidity” of Britain’s decision to leave the European Union, tossing in phrases like “lies of the charlatans” and a “betrayal of British youth.” For good measure, he concludes by calling the outcome an “imbecilic vote.”

This is why those on the right are so frustrated by those on the left. Whenever the left doesn’t get its way, it resorts to over-the-top name calling. It’s hard to have an intelligent conversation when one side throws a tantrum.

Note from KBJ: Morons such as Roger Cohen don't know how to argue, in the sense of persuade rationally. They emote. That's it. That's all they have.

The Washington Redskins are being pressured to change their nickname, on the ground that "Redskins" is offensive to Indians or Native Americans. I have a proposal. Change the name to "Washington 'Skins" (with the apostrophe). Nobody can claim that the nickname is offensive. I suspect that many fans of the Redskins already use the shortened version, in the same way that many fans of the Dallas Cowboys use the term "the 'Boys"; just make it official.

Congratulations to the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, who won the 2016 College World Series. Although I'm disappointed that my Arizona Wildcats didn't win, I'm not upset. The better team won. Or rather, the team that lost (Arizona) deserved to lose. A botched play and a wild throw (made in panic) gave the Chanticleers their first two runs, and that turned out to be the difference in the game.
