Here are some of the issues area residents are discussing. The statements werephoned in anonymously, so the Courier does not vouch for their veracity, nor do we know what motivated the callers:

The Liberty magazine that had the story, “Life’s a Peach” by Debbie Brown, was really cute and adorable. We appreciate it. Thank you, Debbie Brown.

I was wondering who all was sworn in as deputies under the new sheriff. We’d all like to know if he has the same ones, or if they are new.

Hats off to the downtown merchants. Christmas in the Park, the lighting of the tree, the activities for the kids, the reindeer were fantastic. It improves every year.

If the bus routes had closer stops there would be more people riding the buses. Just stop every other block and people would catch the bus like wild fire.

Would someone please tell me why they were playing music from “Cabaret” last night at the Christmas tree lighting?

I want to thank all the soccer coaches at the rec (center) for spending their free time with our kids and working with them. I know it made for long hours after they got off work.

To the families on Demere Street, thank you for the Christmas spirit of decorating your yards. Have a merry Christmas and happy New Year.

HOW TO PACIFY AN IRATE CALLER

These opinions are not the Courier’s. Callers are not required to identify themselves, so we can verify neither sources nor motives. You may also anonymously submit a comment online at http://coastalcourier.com/forms/soundoff.

“I am so sick of hearing and reading about Chick-fil-A opening on Sunday. This family is a Christian family and no Chick-fil-A has ever been open on Sunday. There are many other restaurants open on Sundays.”

“Thank you, former county Commissioner John McIver and city Councilman Chris Stacy for looking out for the people of Riceboro. There are many residents there who have died of cancer recently and no one else is caring for the people.”

“I glad we got a new chief, Kirkendall. I don’t know what he’s done, but I’m going to give him a chance.”

“Why won’t the sheriff’s department do anything about the four-wheelers screaming up and down the roads in Woodland Lakes and Lake George? And the BOA in Lake George won’t do anything either.”

“My God, American people, we are patriots by nature. How in the world could we have allowed so many Russians to be connected to a campaign for president? That’s not patriotic.”

“The worst neighbor in Rye Patch lets his dog run free and poop on others’ property. He’s too cheap to buy trash bags so his trash blows onto others’ property. And he’s just an annoying jerk.”

“Thank you, Niki Seale for writing a sensible letter to the editor in the April 4. I full support your views.”

“Sadly, being white and raised in Liberty County, I never really understood the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. But today, marking the 50th anniversary of his assassination, I realize that has changed over the last year and a half. I enjoyed all the articles in the Coastal Courier. And I think his significance is ever more important than ever.”
