Here are some of the issues area residents are discussing. The statements were phoned in anonymously so the Courier does not know if they are true, nor what motivated the callers:

Please tell people not to throw out the dirty baby diapers down Davis Road around driveways in their trash. It looks like a dump down here. I wish people would put their trash where it should be.

Hinesville should offer some gay and lesbians bars and clubs. We have nowhere to go here in town.

To the command group on Fort Stewart: It is now time to look at accountability of your troops during duty hours. When we have soldiers participating in drive-bys during duty hours, it shows you’re letting your non-commissioned officers and officers let us down.

FYI, Sen. Isakson is not the chair of the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee. Sen. Akaka is.
