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

I just want to remind people that these are the days of the Obama Great Depression. Obama is bankrupting this country.

To the people who were on South Main Street by the church who tried to help me with the station wagon: I want to thank you for blowing my head gasket. I told you to let me crank the car and get it running.

Opinions are like human bottoms. Everybody’s got one, and sometimes I am a real human bottom. Under that heading, I was in Vietnam. I served in Vietnam. These people going around wearing Vietnam-era hats, it’s just wrong.

At the 16th green on Cherokee Rose sits a house that looks kind of like the city dump and a junk yard combined. The resident works on jalopies in the driveway. What about the law against that, as well as the number of vehicles versus licensed drivers in the house?

Why are preachers and evangelists using the hello in their sermons now? One pastor used it about 20 times, and I just do not like it.

HOW TO PACIFY AN IRATE CALLER

“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.”
