Sound Off for June 26, 2016

Point taken

I hope the War on Guns goes better than the War on Drugs.

Perfect for politics

Leonard Pitts for President. Hey Leonard, the way you distort historical events is reflected by the comparisons of the holocaust to slavery, as well as Trump to Hitler. You would fit right in.

Nightclub self-defense

How many precious lives would have been saved if several people were carrying weapons in Orlando?

Customer service

Now the buffoon Trump said alcohol-stoked bar patrons should be armed. Maybe they should pass out AK-47s at the door like party favors.

Hospitality and crime

Sharp contrast. As I travel around town, most people are very nice. It’s a pity we all can’t get along.

Greater needs

Darr should have to pay for his legal fees. What a waste of time and taxpayer money. We’ve got more serious things to concentrate on in Columbus. Like crime.

We’re already paying for them

If Obama wants more children to visit more National Parks, then he will need to lower the cost. You can stay at a motel cheaper than camping at a park.

Wait ... WHAT?

The shooting incident in Orlando was staged by the government. Instead of focusing on the victims, they are focused on gun control.

Coming in by the front door

My father was an immigrant from Switzerland in 1924. He had to have a room and a sponsor, and know enough English to answer questions, along with having a rigorous medical exam.
