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 the motives behind the calls.

I concur with the Georgia State Patrol closing the border. Maybe we'll have less lazy people on welfare, receiving food stamps and free day care. I'm sick and tired of paying taxes for those people.


Maybe instead of sending back the illegals they should send back these lazy people who are always on welfare and not wanting to work and just making babies.


To the people of North Gate apartments, if you don't like the rules and regulations they have you just need to move out.

Cry out. It's a shame. These poor fathers that are supporting their kids and the mothers have them put up with child support. The system should look into the situation and see who is right and who's wrong.


To the person who had her brother arrested for trespassing, what about the child molester and convicted con that lives with her. Talk about blind justice.
