Sound Off for September 26, 2017

No nonsense

I'll bet if Vince Lombardi and Tom Landry were still coaching in the NFL the players on their teams would stand for the national anthem, no questions asked.

Selective concerns

Hey Mr. President, don't you think that John McCain is acting more like a hero now?

No corner

I have been looking through our Constitution, Bill of Rights, and Declaration of Independence. Not one place I have looked gives the president the right to be the only person to have free speech.

Starts at home

Regarding the murders in Columbus, I don't think skin color has a thing to do with it. I do think the lack of family — particularly the lack of parenting — has everything to do with it.

Voters’ choice

I am voting for Roy Moore (not because of the President’s non-endorsement) because the judicial system has no right to keep booting a duly elected representative (and they will do so again) of the people.

No spin

The editorial staff and management of the L-E is just a propaganda arm of the Democratic Party. We do so need a second newspaper that reports news without a political slant and agenda.

No spin

With the current Korean situation in mind, has anyone read “On the Beach” by Neville Shute?
