Hagel drops controversial medal for drone operators
Mon Apr 15, 2013
- I am pleased they have withdrawn the medal that would outrank a purple heart and bronze star. There is still an award of achievement, which takes me back to kindergarten. Apparently people need this in order to be effective in their jobs. And since we are awarding the drone operators (they are not p …
Trio held in connection with sexual assault in wake of teen girl's suicide
Fri Apr 12, 2013
- I can't help but feel horrified at this story. And hopefully, so is everyone else who reads it. I don't understand the callousness of the boys involved in this horrific act against this girl.

Federal cuts jeopardize national security, intelligence chief warns
Thu Apr 11, 2013

Georgia town passes law requiring citizens to own guns and ammo

GOP congressman uses ethnic slur to describe laborers
Fri Mar 29, 2013
- We use the politically correct terms because we are adults. And the incorrect words used within minorities towards each other and others will only hold themselves back from moving forward.

Florida school apologizes after students stomp on 'Jesus'
Wed Mar 27, 2013
- I would like to know what was the purpose of the lesson. The article failed to tell us why this would have been a lesson. These are highly emotionally charged times.
