Dear Editor, Something is happening in our world today. Does it make you wonder what’s going on with all the strife and rioting and tensions in our world? With the vaccines and the mask mandates they are forcing people to wear? Maybe it’s a preparation time for the mark of the beast: “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads. And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the…

An open letter to Mayor Miles, City Manager Foggin, et al.

Dear Editor, The information provided in your dog park plan is faulty. Unless you have personally been out there at both the dog park and the Locomotive Park sites and measured them yourselves, you will know that the information we have been provided is incorrect. I went out and paced the areas off. There is more than double the space available for vendor tents within Locomotive Park alone – appx 100,000 sq ft), vs. the area identified on your plan at the dog park (about 50,000 sq ft). Add to that the voluminous spaces along Beale Street at Locomotive Park and…

Afghanistan

Dear Editor, Did we really need to be there for so many years and the casualties we sustained? I believe that many who have been in the region, many service and government personnel thought, why are we here? Was Afghanistan and its people a threat to the U.S.? What really was the mission? Twenty years later what did we accomplish? I leave that to you. I am an older veteran and had spent time in the Middle East and thought from the beginning the country was not ready to accept change until the people have better schools and most get…

Blinken, Winken, and Nod

Dear Editor, It would appear that Secretary of State Blinken needs help from his side kicks, Winken & Nod. Afghanistan has fallen. It was not a strategic pull out, it was a “BUG OUT ” of immense proportion.  We now have another Democrat Sec. of State who does not know what he is doing and blindly follows the orders of a president—Joe Biden—who knows even less.  I hope and pray the Ambassador and the people in our embassy are rescued in time.  Our last Democrat Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, knew exactly what she was doing. She knew she was leaving our Ambassador and the people…
