The Rant

The fresh coat of paint on traffic lanes really spruces up the potholes for spring. Tourists and locals certainly appreciate it.

Commissioner Greg Beck doesn’t want 5 p.m. commission meetings to hear from more of us because he wants to be home to watch TV? Sorry it’s inconvenient.

Shooting for the sake of your political party never benefits the party. It weakens it and makes the other party stronger. Misplaced anger fails.

Charlie Kirk was assassinated for being an intelligent man who loved God, his family, and his country.

Responding to Kirk’s assassination, the president increased divisiveness in our country by exclusively blaming the “radical left.” Both sides have suffered horrendous attacks this year.

Words matter, but words are not violence. If you don’t think so, get help. Seriously, you have been persuaded wrongly and you drank the Kool-Aid.

If you inject hate speech in a country that has more weapons than it does population, don’t expect the outcome of this to be positive.

Freedom of speech is an inalienable right in this country. If you can’t handle it, leave. See how you like it elsewhere. You won’t.

There are turning points in America. We just had one.

President Trump, why didn’t you lower the flag for Democratic lawmaker Melissa Hortman and her husband who were killed by a Christian Trump supporter?

Charlie Kirk’s assassination should let conservatives and liberals know that what they say can make people angry, so stay alert, stay alive.

President Trump can start off the healing in this charged political atmosphere by stopping his attacks on judges and political opponents (no name-calling)

In 2023, Charlie Kirk, speaking after a tragic school shooting, said that some gun deaths are unfortunately “worth it” for the preservation of 2nd Amendment rights.

No matter what Mr. Kirk said, he didn’t deserve to be gunned down. Can we agree on that?

Imagine the huge cost of sending Air Force II containing a coffin for this young, unfortunate conservative who was killed. This is taxpayer money.

Where’s your tolerance, liberals, for those who walk among us that disagree with you?

Hey MAGA, are you ready for “gun control” now?

Trump laments violent rhetoric “day after day” even as he sets the standard for demonizing everyone he disagrees with.

Being a conservative activist does not make you evil. What’s evil is violence to stop the words you dislike. You will not silence the truth.

If you don’t have the words, the sentiments that touch the hearts of Americans, why destroy those who do?

Donald Trump said he would end the war between Russia and Ukraine within “24 hours of his second presidency.” Please, never believe anything he says.
