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:

Extra, extra! Extra, extra! Citizens of Liberty County for sale. And it’s a shame.

The Walthourville resident calling a new mayor and police chief sounds like someone with all the lights on, but no one home. Come to the next council meeting and you’ll get facts, not gossip.

I’m not prejudice against no race of people. But why do we give away poor American people’s benefits to the Mexicans? They’re not homeless.

I told my neighbor to quit cutting his grass. I want my property value to go down so my taxes will go down. I’m going to stop cutting my own grass, too.

I don’t want nobody to come up to me to undermine who I’m going to vote for for sheriff. I don’t care even if I know you. I’ve got my mind made up.

I hope the man I vote for for sheriff will put a deputy at 84 and 196. These folks on 196 making a right are just too dangerous.
