Day of Peace events cancelled

Dear Editor, It is with heavy heart that we share with you that due to COVID-19 again this year Kingman’s annual 9/21 International Day of Peace observance, also called World Peace Day, is cancelled.

What life seems to be

Dear Editor, Life is short. The best we can do, is the best we can do. If we are doing our best, then what more can we expect from ourselves and others? Most people are doing the best they can with the information and abilities they have.   There are some things we can change and some things we can’t. Learning to adjust or adapt with what we have and who we are often takes some time and effort. We are all born some place to someone. Some of us are raised with less than others and some of us are…

After almost one year now the medical field has not progressed to help the people.Mr. Groat you said …”Americans should rely more upon the advice of health care professionals.” Why should we American’s rely on educated derelicts?

Afghanistan will never go away

Dear Editor, Afghanistan is an unending nightmare that will never go away.  We got Osama Bin Laden. We wanted to avenge the heinous deaths of September 11, 2001. We were all mad and we are still angry about what evil people did on that day. We will never forget. We could have covertly taken out Bin Laden and many more terrorists without all that our political leaders have done over the last 20 years.  Thousands of parents lost their children in Afghanistan. Thousands of spouses lost husbands and wives. Children lost their parents. These precious Americans will suffer the rest…
