Sun Herald readers weigh in on local and national topics.

Best of Cruisin’

After all the years of Cruisin’ The Coast, I must admit my favorite is Ocean Springs. Plenty of food, shops and family fun. There is shade under the oaks and the rides; beer and portable toilets. It’s the best.

Not good

There has to be a better way for Biloxi to handle the Cruisin’ traffic on Friday and Saturday. It’s not a disaster in other cities.

Where’s Ezell?

Rep. Mike Ezell has been out with Speaker Johnson for months now, and not a single note about a town hall.

No complaints?

How is it that concerned citizens are not upset about cars producing smoke as a competition? Y’all be just making up stuff to compete. I guess when you have no real talent, you create one.

Obamacare

The problem is subsidies. Obamacare is so bad it requires billions of more dollars yearly to keep it afloat. It’s not affordable. Period.

Gaza

We all want peace. President Trump could have ended the war on Day 1. All he had to do is cut Israel’s war funding. Instead, he allowed the destruction of Gaza.

Worst ever

The writer defending RFK Jr.’s stances on anything medical is the most uniformed writer you’ve ever had.
