Sound Off for May 23, 2017

Post the grades

A fast-food health department rating is in the window of a drive-thru. Why not put a school cleanliness score sheet by the front door of the schools?

It won’t work

Midtown, puhleeze stop trying to become the next Columbus Park Crossing. If I wanted to shop in Midtown I would, and the closing of lanes and addition of sidewalks wouldn’t make a bit of difference.

Back-home values

Jeff Sessions needs to get the hell out of Washington and get back to Alabama. Alabama didn’t raise him to be an idiot or a traitor.

Let him work

Be warned

If the city of New Orleans keeps removing Confederate statues then I'm never going back there to get drunk and throw up on their sidewalks.
