Joy and Hope

To the editor: I believe it is more natural to be drawn to the light. Darkness is chaotic and depressing.

Vote For Freedom

To the editor: As I see the Democratic candidate signs popping up around the county, I can’t help but wonder have the people displaying their support for Harris-Walz or Allred considered their political records? Do they know who these people are and what they stand for? They talk about freedom but are doing all they can to destroy Americanism and democracy. They say one thing and do the exact opposite of what they say.

Bohemians Unite!

To the editor: Fellow citizens, I have decided that our high dollar city manager JT has good ideas but he is going about it in all the wrong ways. Example: the roof and fountain improvements at city hall are a waste, just like the concrete eyesore flower boxes.

Tax Burdens

To the editor: A lot of people pay taxes on monies earned when we sell all sorts of things of value. Just recently the current administration has talked about taxes on unrealized gains.

Recapitalization And the Blame Game

Why do I “lose it” when I see other people doing something that harms or does no benefit to the people around them at their supposedly “professional” work? Frankly, I have been there all too many times myself, when mercy and forgiveness were needed from others for major blunders or minor misjudgments at my own work, but it doesn’t make it easier to forgive myself when I know I have done something unprofessional, much less when I have blown my stack at others who have done something that led to results or an obvious error that should have and could have been avoided. And then sometimes instead, a compounding of actions of many leads to trouble.

Border Patrol Faulted in Uvalde School Shooting

CAPITAL Highlights 

A 200-page report from the Department of Homeland Security faulted U.S. Border Patrol agents who rushed to the Uvalde school shooting in 2022, concluding they “failed to establish command and had inadequate training” in one of the deadliest classroom attacks, The Dallas Morning News reported.

A lone shooter killed 19 students and two teachers inside a classroom during a 70-minute standoff before a tactical team led by the Border Patrol went inside and killed him.

TEXAS History 

Col. Billy Mitchell departed San Antonio on Sep. 21, 1925, never to return in uniform to the flight training center. The outspoken advocate of air power realized the odds were against him but relished the opportunity to butt heads with the brass.

Election Integrity

To the editor: A letter to the editor last week told us that we are believing a lie if we think that illegal immigrants are voting and asks the question “What evidence do you have for that?” The author gives us three reasons to support his position: verification of citizenship by the states, risk to the illegal voter, and the insignificant number of violations. Regarding verification: Voter registration is mostly administered on an honor system.
