Here are some of the issues 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:

In response to the person complaining about retirees and active duty having to pay for tax returns on Fort Stewart. I’m a retiree and just had my returns done on Fort Stewart. There were a bunch of soldiers there too, getting theirs done for free, too. Get your story straight.

I want to compliment Joselynn McKenna again for an excellent column in the Sunday paper. I don’t have a spouse anymore, but spent many years in the Army. She is by far the best writer on the editorial page. I turn to it first because of her.

Somebody needs to open their eyes and open these gates on Fort Stewart. It’s 5:20 and the traffic is backed up all the way to Hardee’s. Please open them earlier so people can get to work on time.

You think this snow is bad, wait until the floods in the summer and more tornadoes and stuff. God said let my people go. He wants us to be loving and kind to each other or He’ll turn this world upside down.

I want to thank the people here in Liberty County. My family member was in a rollover accident on Highway 196 last Wednesday. We still have good citizens. People stopped to help and stayed until helped arrived.

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.”
