It’s Enough

Dear Editor, Another writer would have us believe she has an insight into knowing what the future will bring with the Biden/Harris administration. That said she then goes on to display ignorance about the founding of this nation by stating, “the Christian values the country was founded on.” This tells us she has either never read the Treaty of Tripoli, or she chooses to ignore what it states. The logical questions is why would people escape religious tyranny only to institute policy which binds them to one religion? What about freedom to worship faiths such as Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism,…

Blue or Merry Holiday Season?

Dear Editor, Now is the time to develop your plan for avoiding a blue holiday season and having a merry holiday season. I love Elvis’ song Blue Christmas, but I don’t want to have one. However, In the best of times holiday blues strike most people. If you are missing a significant person in your life the blues are inevitable. You miss them sitting at your table. You miss them coming in your home. You are reminded of how much that person meant to you. Holiday shows don’t often help. While some are festive, they often remind us of the…

Reader unhappy with Social Democratic process

Dear Editor, If you disagree with what I am about to write, you can throw it away or swear at me. If you agree, please forward this to all your contacts. I believe this subject is critical to us as individuals, but more importantly, to our country. I have written on this subject before, but now our daily paper will no longer print my writings because they “promote hatred and dissent”. There can no longer be any doubt whatsoever, in anyone’s mind, that the far left wing of what used to be the Democrat Party has shed all their cloaks…

Complain if you have problems

Dear Editor, If you live in Valle Vista and you want it to look like a north area of Kingman in Mohave County then please don’t complain. By not complaining to the sheriff, road department, code enforcement, public health, animal control, our own board of directors, and any other applicable department we will take on the same look. If that’s what  you want then don’t complain and just go look at the area. That’s Valle Vista in the future. All of these departments have rules and regulations for a reason and it goes for everyone and not just a few….
