Sound Off for May 12, 2016

Mournful music

The Democratic Party theme song must have been written by Blood, Sweat & Tears — They take your blood and sweat, and leave you in tears.

Haven’t heard about that wall

Over 20,000 Syrian refugees recently settled in Canada with lots of places where you can just walk across the border. Wonder if Donald Trump wants to build a wall there. Wonder what that would cost.

Problem doesn’t start at school

Just saw a sign that said “End Failing Schools.” Well, Failing Parents = Failing Students and Failing Schools.

More than money can buy

I got a dog from the animal shelter and got two Ls — love and loyalty.

Tarnished legacy

As a senior citizen, lately I have been grieving for the inhabitants of our planet, especially for those of us in the U.S. I am thankful for being one day closer to going home.

Frightening prospect

The next time you proudly say you are 100% in for Trump, just ask yourself, do you really want a person like Trump in charge of the nuclear launch codes?

Ready for The Donald

I’m sick of hardcore politicians. Bring on Mr. Trump.
