Our suicide by law enforcement story is sure to get a great deal of attention this week but the comments we are seeing are on other topics.
Many new businesses are coming together with the opening of the new Home Valley Bank as well as the CJ Video. Smaller changes including Northwest Hairlines and the “purple building” continue to improve the services offered here in the valley.
Then there is the news about the new facility at the Kerby Belt building. It seems some folks are never happy. This project has been in the works for at least four years and is intended to help small businesses in the valley get up and running. We got some a comment along the lines that ‘grants are robbery’. In my opinion, if we are going to have a Federal Government, they should be doing things to help small business and business in this area can use the help.
Speaking of what Government spends its money on: we had a comment in response to our letters to the editor regarding the idea that if we weren’t in 700 military bases around the world, we’d have all the money we needed to run local governments. The commenter then made some reference to our socialist county government…what’s THAT all about? Impeach them all and replace them with whom?
Of course we can’t forget about those Cougars! We wish them all the luck this Friday as they battle for the state title.
Keep the comments and letters coming.
