Sound off!

All this talk about doing something about gun violence, and here we catch them and let them plead down and watch the gun specification disappear. The perceived elite with their armed guards want to disarm the populace, but won’t keep the criminals once caught. Has modern law gotten so greedy that common sense and common opinion are no longer considered?

Monday’s headline says “Clerk to open a satellite office.” Far more useful and needed today would be Saturday hours for the working folks. I gave a car to my kid five weeks ago and she can’t get time off to transfer the title.

Let me get this correct, the U.S. Treasury will assess the effectiveness of the recently passed Fend Off Fentanyl Act! The “real” measuring stick will be in lives saved! We can only pray the death numbers decrease. Where has Sherrod Brown been for the past 10 to 15 years, fentanyl has been raging! Better southern border control would also be a detriment. And never forget, Sherrod Brown has supported Joe Biden’s policies full throttle!

I find it disingenuous that Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown (D) makes his trek to the Mahoning Valley in the fifth year of his six-year term. On Monday, Sen. Brown said the current fentanyl problem is not a border problem but an addiction problem. It’s both. It’s sad when a sitting U.S. senator cannot waiver from the Biden administration’s policy of an open border with all of the problems it causes. November cannot come fast enough for America.

I have a solution for the financially strapped Post Office. Deliver to half the customers on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and the other half on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. There would be tremendous savings on staff and resources! Half the mail we receive is junk mail anyway!

Happy to see Mill Creek Park and Cruise the Creek work together to save this eBike company, by allowing it to use the Kirk Road trailhead. After the news articles last year Youngstown City wanted to shut it down. … Good job and good luck.

I saw the chilling movie “Civil War” about a fictional future United States at war with itself. Days later, I read that the elder sons of Trump want to lead a proposed vetting procedure to verify loyalty to Trump as a primary requirement for any future federal job. This was more chilling than the film. I imagined the boys with ARs as they interrogated journalists next to an open mass grave. They sentenced the reporters to the pit for insufficient loyalty.

To the U.S. Supreme Court: If the U.S. president ordered, in his official capacity, Seal Team 6 to assassinate a Supreme Court justice(s) because he / she ruled against his / her official presidential agenda, would the sitting president be immune from prosecution for murder because it was an official presidential act, as Justice Alito alluded to recently? It seems this issue is clear-cut with no middle ground, contrary to the recent hearing! In other words, one cannot be half-pregnant.
