Sound Off for May 11, 2016

‘Your’ country. Duly noted.

We are taking back our country this year. You liberals, Democrats and weirdos are just going to have to suck it up and step aside.

Capital concerns

What have Gov. Deal and the Georgia Legislature got against Columbus? Oh, I get it. They just want to keep the money.

Disincentive

If you curtail drugs on the street, I bet home invasions, street shootings and murders will drop off the chart in the crime stats.

Public amenities

Some soundoffers don’t believe Columbus should provide recreational facilities for its residents, i.e., ice rink, golf, swimming pool, etc. Guess you only want something that’s free.

Confounding stereotypes

It’s nice to read about Islamic leaders waging theological warfare against ISIS. Believing that all Muslims are jihadist extremists is as stupid as believing everyone who flies the Confederate flag is a bigot.

Clever conspiracy

Does anyone really believe the Founders were insincere about “We the People” and cunningly fooled colonists into warring with England so rich people could control everything by lying about the purpose of the Electoral College?
