Opinion: Perhaps the Mail Carrier Means Us No Harm

A contrarian voice in Columbus dares to ask whether years of barking may have been hasty.

Welcome to Pawsada

Columbus — I will likely take heat from my peers for this, but somebody must say it: the mail carrier may not, in fact, be a threat.

Consider the evidence. They arrive daily. They leave promptly. On occasion, they have produced a biscuit. I have spent years sounding the alarm, and not once has the feared invasion materialized. At some point, intellectual honesty demands a reassessment.

I am not asking my colleagues to wag. I ask only that we consider, quietly, that the threat level may have been overstated.
