Sound Off for August 13, 2016

Don’t hold back

Why don’t you people just print a front-page article about how you despise Sheriff John Darr? You’re doing a good job of it now, you scumbags.

Finish the job

I’m glad that the meth labs in Alabama were busted. Now let’s get rid of the ones in Georgia, too.

Wrongful death

Parents of two killed in Benghazi are suing Clinton. Parents of the 4,497 (to date) servicemen killed in Iraq should sue Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld for falsifying documents to start the war.

Ready, fire, aim

Donald Trump must have a staff podiatrist as he keeps shooting himself in the foot.

True colors

When a Republican can publicly support Hillary Clinton, it proves that person is not a Republican, but a politician.

Not credible

Trump haters call him "unstable," "narcissistic," "fragile," "dangerous," "uneducated," "unstable," etc., while posturing themselves as stable, solid, wise and secure. But I see them as just the water carriers for the elite establishment.

Didn’t listen

Council members, come out to Blackmon Road Middle School, get in line to drop off/pick up, and observe what has been created by your approving a round-about at this location. We tried to tell you.

Growth industry

If any entrepreneur wants to make a lot of money, invest in Justin Beiber dartboards. You’ll make a killing.
