Hall of Fame

“Is the Colquitt County Sports Hall of Fame still in existence? I can’t recall having an induction ceremony for a while now.

Inequality

“So why is the BUGS program just for Cox and Stringfellow? What about the weekend backpack buddies? Because these schools are the poorest and lowest. When are we going to start being equal to all our children and integrate these two schools?

Bad parking lots

“Does the city have the authority to address the condition of some of the parking lots in our town? One shopping center in particular has a notorious lot that can cause damage to a vehicle.

Just Google it

“To the ranter who wants to see a catalog of trump’s lies: Google ‘Trumps biggest lies’ and you will find a trove of  catalogs.

Professional standards

“I wish the school board would re-teach ‘Professional Standards’ to our local educators about hashing out life in social media about how they feel like a failure, they don’t get text from a principal when others do, this school, that school, etc. Come on, put on big girl, big boy pants and grow up.

His wall

“Joe Kennedy, the multimillionaire who gave the Democratic response to the State of the Union address, lives in a massive mansion in Massachusetts which is surrounded by a big wall. Imagine that, no wall for America but Kennedy needs one around his home. Do as I say, not as I do. Hypocrisy, the only plank in the democratic platform.

House divided

“We are so divided a house divided will not stand. We must love each other and respect each other’s opinion. Let is learn to encourage and not tear down. God is love. We say we are a United nation. Let us show unity by praying for and encouraging one another. We need love not war. Be Blessed.

No teleprompter

“Where was the Obama teleprompter at the State of the Union address? Oh wait, I forgot, they threw it away. Trump’s speech was from the heart, not read from a teleprompter. Trump doesn’t need equipment to deliver a good speech, he just loves his country. That is what Obama lacked!

Applause

“I want to applaud those who make the Boys and Girls Club work. This organization is so important to our community. Lives get changed through this kind of involvement.
