Dear Editor, How do we solve the mass shootings? Do we take away all the guns? Or, do we require that every American carry a gun and be prepared to shoot back? Do we eliminate the assault rifles? Or, do we have more security guards at malls, grocery stores and work places carry assault rifles? We have a crisis in America with gun violence and mass shootings. What will Joe Biden and Congress do about this problem? Will they even attempt a solution? Mr. President and members of Congress, we need a solution.  How do solve the ongoing Covid 19…

Not long ago, if we wore a mask into a bank or convenience store, the attendants would be alarmed and call 911. Today if we don’t wear one, we are in trouble and not welcomed.  A lot of people have died from Covid-19 and thus I understand masks are important in this pandemic era. I don’t want a disease. I have had two Pfizer shots and I wear a…

Judge Lee Jantzen recently ruled against Mayor Jen Miles recall petitioners, based on a 2019 State Supreme Court ruling that claimed the Statutes required attachment of the recall application be attached to each petition page. The Miles Recall was the first of numerous filed last year.  The reason given by James Coffman was “Abuse of Power.”  That was based on Miles’ extended Emergency Proclamation, with NO Council vote.  Her refusal to take it before the City Council was later declared illegal by Attorney General Mark Brnovich.  In October, a local Conservatives PAC filed second recalls against Mayor Miles and Jamie…

A 75-year-old Asian woman was brutally attacked in San Francisco and ten people were killed by a lone gunman at a grocery store in Boulder Colorado. A business park shooting in Orange, California left four people dead including a…
