Terrorism

Radical Islamic terrorists are having their way on innocent Americans. Law enforcement had to know this would happen. I would expect more to come before Donald Trump takes office.

Get them

I think that the DOJ and FBI should spend more effort against terrorists instead of Donald Trump and Republicans.

Focus on the problem

Americans should be outraged that this terrorist was not identified and caught prior to his dastardly deed in New Orleans. The politicized state, federal and local agencies have been tyrannical in their non-stop persecution of President-electTrump and other so called domestic threats, such as disagreeing parents at school boards, Catholics and those that act in self defense.

Government branches

The U.S. Constitution establishes 3 branches of government in order to provide checks and balances. 1) Legislative Branch: Makes laws; 2) Executive Branch (President): Enforces Laws; 3) Judicial Branch: Interprets laws. House Speaker Mike Johnson (makes laws), told President-elect Trump “we will quickly deliver your agenda and usher in a new golden age of America.” I’m confused. Shouldn’t Congress (Mike Johnson) be formulating the laws and agenda to guide our country. It seems as though Trump has taken over the executive and legislative branch. What’s next…Elon Musk over the Judicial branch?

Enough, already

Will someone please take the checkbook away from Joe Biden? Enough is enough.

Be considerate

To those that smoke pot outside of their home, such as in their yard or patio, please be mindful of your surrounding neighbors who find the skunk smell extremely offensive. There are days that I would love to open my windows for fresh air, however the skunk smell makes its way into the house. This is a daily thing that I have to deal with especially now that my neighbor has retired and apparently enjoys getting high at least twice a day. Can anything be done to protect those such as myself from this offensive drug smell coming from a neighbor’s property?

Unfair

The water department in Gulfport is disorganized. I received a bill with a past-due charge and a present charge at the same time. I never got the past due bill.
