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 wonder how can so many people be so rude out in Midway. My uncle passed away. My auntie went out there and someone had destroyed his headstone. How can people be so rude and pretend in church they are so holy?

I’d so like to thank the individual who returned my wallet. I had left it in a buggy at the Walmart in Jesup. And they returned it to customer service.

I’m glad EES is only hiring prior military so the civilians can continue living like peasants.

Can anyone help the Wackenhut gate guards? They need a lawyer seriously. They’ve been cheated out of their money. Their union robs them. And they’ve been singled out to be fired.

Thank you, Carolyn Clark Carter, for standing up and writing that letter to the editor about the crime suppression unit. I live in Pointe South and commend you for doing something for our kids.
Pharaoh’s army got drowned in the Red Sea for not obeying God. They wanted to look back, not forward. Plagues and worldwide floods will fall on the Earth if the children of disobedience will not listen to God.
 
You know it’s really wonderful that in 2008 we had a change in office and we haven’t gotten any pay raises for the military or retirees and the VA didn’t get any travel pay for veterans. We’ve really got a good change going on.

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.”
