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:

If the LibertyFest was to bring everybody together for some fun, especially when soldiers are deployed and the economy is down a little bit, why were people charged $5 to get in. Vendors had no way of making their money due to the low turnout.

The mail trucks that the mail carriers use do not have air conditioning in them.

I’d like to say to the person or whoever is over OMI, why is one employee always driving his car out of the city? We pay tax on that car and he doesn’t even buy gas.

To LibertyFest organizers, it was very disrespectful to shoot fireworks in my neighborhood that sounded like dynamite.
