Protests in LA. Protesters confront police following recent raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agents on June 8, 2025, in Los Angeles, California. Associated Press

Sun Herald readers weigh in on local and national topics.

Rebellion

What constitutes a rebellion as opposed to a peaceful protest? The First Amendment gives us that right. So, maybe it’s when it becomes violent, threatening lives of non-participants. So, what was happening on Jan. 6? President Trump didn’t call in the National Guard then.

Los Angeles

Los Angeles again. The mayor and governor are fanning the fire. Just a normal day in California. Does anyone in California work or is this just the norm?

Nope ropes

I have yet to encounter a rattlesnake on Mississippi, but I’ve seen plenty of cottonmouths and the occasional copperhead.

What a concept

Imagine being detained by ICE agents while you’re in the country illegally. Then you get arrested for breaking the law. Imagine a government that enforces the law.

Fake headlines

Are there any other people aggravated about the provocative headlines on social media with no follow up story? I am so tired of Face Book and their untrue headlines with no follow up story. They use this method to lead you to advertising pages. Don’t fall for it. Just accept the fact that the headline is false and move on.What a waste of time.

Arrest them all

I just saw where some illegal aliens were arrested at a job site in Long Beach. Again i ask you: Why wasn’t the person who hired them arrested, also.

Those cones

For the second weekend in a row, Biloxi invites thousands of visitors to the Coast, but then it liters the highway with unsightly and unattractive orange and white cones. No visitor wants to see this. We understand the need for public safety but this is so wrong. We need to think outside the box.
