VALDOSTA —
Again, I say that I own an AR-15 and it has never been used to threaten or kill anyone. It's used in recreational target shooting in a safe manner. Stop trying to blame an inanimate object and blame the human that misuses it.
I just wanted to give a big sorrow-filled goodbye to Mrs. Angela Sams at the VA office here in town. We hate to see you go. You are an Angel in disguise.
Small business is one thing, but what's the excuse for big business cutting hours to avoid paying health care? They aren't on the verge of shutting down, they're making millions per day.
Come on, Walmart on Perimeter, I came in to purchase one item and had to wait in electronics for 45 minutes until a worker that works up front finally came and unlocked the item I wanted. Then I get up front to pay and have to wait 27 more minutes in line because there was only two registers open. And this was around 7 p.m. There’s plenty of well-qualified people that need jobs. Hire, you need help.
As far as Star Parker goes, she wouldn’t be where she is today if it weren’t for all of those government entitlements she received.
For those too ignorant to understand, only FOX reveals the truth as to the lies, deception and corruptness by this liberal left-wing administration. While this country slips to ruins, our so-called leader enjoys another game of golf.
Gun nutters fail to understand the difference between 400-horsepower cars, private jets, poisonous snakes and AR-15s. A 400-horsepower car is designed for transportation as are private jets. Poisonous snakes are products of nature and the venom serves as a means of procuring food. An AR-15 by contrast was designed for the military with the express purpose of killing enemy soldiers with efficiency.
What is going on with the water prices? They are going though the roof. And have you seen the late fees on your water bill? And if you have a second meter, it is now $8.59 a month when you don't use it. Maybe city members need to take a pay cut instead of raising fees in these hard times.
A good example of one-dimensional thinking that characterizes the anti-gun crowd, was when a previous ranter stated since firearms were invented by the Chinese for war, "the purpose and function of any firearm is to threaten and kill people." Actually, we’ve come a long way in 1,300 years.

Over 150 applicants applied for the handful of teaching jobs in Lowndes County. Plus, almost every single paraprofessional is a certified teacher who has been waiting patiently, “doing their time.” And, Lake Park Elementary hires a teacher who has quit, not once, but twice before. The "good ole' boy" network at its finest.

Have we progressed to the point where we are arguing about gay marriage? I thought the South was still outraged about blacks being able to marry whites! Hmm...We will catch up to the rest of the world eventually.

I found the cartoon referencing Tim Tebow's Christianity on Thursday's editorial page very offensive. I can agree that many people are out for what God can do for them, not how they can serve God, But I do not see any evidence of that attitude or life style in Tim Tebow's life. Time will tell.

Good riddance to the doctor unable to take Medicaid patients?! Do you work for free? I bet you go to work and expect a paycheck. Why would the doctor be any different? Blame our fearless leaders, not the doctors. And you are WAY out of line questioning whether that person is Christian or not. Sounds like the person who thinks preachers should work for free.

Amazing: Even a judgmental person like yourself can’t even bother to get the facts straight before you criticize something. Jason Collins did an extremely brave thing by coming out in a world filled with people such as yourself. Words of Wisdom: Leave the judging to God.

Raves to Mrs. Kay and Mrs. Sylvia at Cook Primary! They have the best behaved class and are the best teachers in that school!

To all who use Coleman Road as a short cut between Old Highway 41 North and North Valdosta Road, please remember the speed limit is 35, not 65. Tailgating me isn’t going to make me go faster. Remember, it’s our neighborhoods, not your short cut!

I hope Al Sharpton finds time to visit the mother in Brunswick whose baby was shot point blank in the forehead while in his baby stroller. Perhaps the reverend could also counsel the angry young black man who pulled the trigger. Oh wait, the baby was white. Never mind.

I thought that all schools had dress codes that the teachers and substitutes had to follow? When I walk into the school it looks like they are headed to the pool instead of the classroom. Tank tops and skimpy skirts are not allowed. Come on, administration, make them follow the rules. Thank you, to the teachers and staff that do adhere to the dress code.

Property tax should be based on value. School taxes should be separate and assessed to each household equally, no exemptions. The rich, middle and poor should pay equally for children's public education.
