Voter fraud a myth?
 I do not oppose the requirement of showing IDs to purchase alcohol, just that we should take the same care at the voting booth.  

A matter of safe access
Have you noticed the two signs located in the parking lot of Home Depot when you were trying to get to Towne Mall? The ones that read “No Thru Traffic.” Surely you have, that is if you have traveled from Veterans Way or the Woodland Drive/Buford Lane detour to Ring Road. One cannot turn left from Ring Road to get to the mall unless you turn at the red light, drive through Home Depot’s parking lot and then turn left on Woodland Drive.

Right side of the road needs attention
I have read many times over the years how our local roadways have contributed to, or caused, a crash when the vehicle being driven dropped off the right side of the roadway causing the driver to react and, in turn, causing the vehicle to overturn several times. I haven’t kept track of the statistics, but, in many instances, the driver or a passenger has been severely injured or died.

Voters are the losers
The more I hear and understand the political actions taken by both parties to further their own self interests and gain power over the “other side,” the more disgusted I become. We’re seeing the evidence of so-called political PACs making untrue attacks on candidates without their input or ability to change them.
