Sound Off for Dec. 24, 2019

Please stop

When you pass me on a double yellow line at high speed, especially when you’re on your phone, you not only endanger yourself, you endanger me and my passengers. So don’t.

Christmas gift

All the thousands of motorists that have to negotiate the White Avenue and Irish Hill intersection daily want for Christmas is for Biloxi to get the traffic light synced. It continues to work on a timer rather than a traffic sensitive mode.

Just the facts

Our country is in a constitutional crisis. Trump is trying to destroy all the institutions of our government that do not work personally for him. Now is the time for this newspaper to report the truth about the state of our country. Unfortunately, this newspaper seems to be more concerned about loosing the readership of Trump supporters. You ignore facts sent to Sound Off and print outlandish statements by Trump supporters. Facts are not relative. Truth is not relative. Start printing the facts. Our democracy is at stake.

Partisan editing?

I am at the end of my patience with the constant Sound Offs supporting Donald Trump and bashing the Democrats. Sound Off is one of the reasons I read your increasingly thin newspaper. Now it seems the rest of the editorial section is all pro-Trump as well. This does not bode well for my continuing support of your very partisan paper.

Show me

This is in response to "cowardly way." You have to have a crime to have a trail. Show me the crime, not opinions, just the facts.

Not advanced?

Just read where Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says the country is not an advanced country and headed for fascism. Is Bernie Sanders elected already?

Thanks GOP

If the GOP has its way, in the future, any thug who wants to buy the presidency can do so, and once in office can do whatever he wants and Congress will be powerless to stop him, just stonewall. Our democracy gone. Thanks GOP.

Where am I?

After reading all the comments blaming and insulting “liberals,” I have to take a deep breath, exhale, and remember that I am in Mississippi.

Time management

This is in response to "part time gig." I have no issue with President Trump watching the news, tweeting or golfing. He has got our economy growing and unemployment is lower than it has been in 50 years. You should try to accomplish all he has while battling the Democrats.

Greatly appreciated

Thank you, Eugene Robinson. Your Sunday opinion article is a great read that logically explains and describes the current impeachment proceedings. You’re logical analysis is greatly appreciated.
