Letter to the editor: Lack of retirement health care hurts police officers
There has been a severe decline in applicants for police jobs. “Defund the police” politicians and other groups, ultra liberal district attorneys, and the liberal media-bashing has definitely had its ill effects. But one thing that no one talks about is the one thing that has always amazed me. A...
Editorial: Your air quality may be more dangerous than your phone is telling you. The EPA is fine with that.
The Environmental Protection Agency’s adoption of a more stringent annual limit on fine particulate matter, or soot, fulfills an overdue obligation to curb a deadly type of air pollution that triggers asthma, heart attacks, strokes and a host of other health problems. But the agency made a serious mistake by...
Letter to the editor: A noble American?
A parody of Mark Antony’s funeral oration for Julius Caesar: Friends, Americans, countrymen, lend me your ears, I come to bury the Porn Patron not to praise him. The evil that men do lives after them, the good is oft interred with their bones — so let it be with...

Letter to the editor: Convention center at Westmoreland Mall?

Letter to the editor: Hunting should not be allowed on Sundays
It’s OK to hunt, but I would really like to have my Sundays with no shooting. Sunday is a day for relaxing; I don’t want to be woken up with people shooting outside my house. I want to get up, go to church, come home, fix something to eat for...

No electronic voting machines that can be compromised through internet hacking or other mischief may be permitted. Mail-in voting must only be available to those with...
Editorial: School security is too important to neglect
There are places that a school district can cut corners. None is pleasant. Trim things off the maintenance budget, and you can set up bigger building projects later on. Short the curriculum, and you get poor test scores and unprepared students. Whatever gets cut one place costs in another. But...
Letter to the editor: Education and leadership
It seems the purpose of education in this country has been forgotten or at least misdirected.
