What homosexual marriage will mean to America's school kids

"Same sex marriage? It doesn't bother me!"

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

As college nears, music downloading gets serious

As the college season approaches this may be important news for all universities concerned with music pirating. Lawsuits against individuals are everywhere; don't get caught in the trap.

Restaurants not responsible for this patron's choices

I would like to respond to Kathie Cheney's letter to the editor regarding Tyrone's vote on liquor by the glass.

Try for 'win-win' and move over

Without trying to intensify the acrimony that apparently pervades the issue of "Left Lane Laggards," I must respond to the adolescent diatribe that I read in last Wednesday's edition of The Citizen. While I don't wish to personally impugn its author, Mr. John May, I would hope that he and those like him might reconsider their "unique" driving ideology.

Take away licenses from left-laners

After reading the letters "Move over drivers usually are speeders" and "I don't care how many line up behind me," I am convinced these two people are a menace on the highway and should have their driving privileges revoked.

Left-laners not the major issue

"Left Lane Laggards," as you label them, are only part of the problem, but certainly not the root cause of traffic problems in Fayette County. It doesn't take a doctorate in proctology to come to the conclusion that our neighboring friends from other counties are the real royal pains in the lower anatomy when it comes to our traffic woes!

Think about the many who depend on carts

It is very clear to me that little to no thought was put into coming up with the new laws regarding the operation of golf carts in Peachtree City. By no means are golf carts as dangerous as an automobile; so why would the laws and consequences concerning this matter be equal to that of automobile operation?

Unsafe teens should be cleared from PTC paths

I have personally seen many incidents where [cart] drivers have been driving through these paths extremely fast, endangering other drivers. Most of these drivers were adolescents barely in their teens.

Mayor Brown has only himself to blame on taxes

Last week The Citizen published a letter written by Mayor Steve Brown in which he intimated that the city's current budget woes are the fault of the previous administration and a bad economy. The facts do not seem to support these allegations.

Brown wants it both ways on taxes; Tennant just doesn't get it

One week before holding the budget hearing, council unanimously voted to spend $120,000 of your money to build a golf cart bridge across Ga. Highway 54 West connecting the Wynnmeade subdivision to nowhere. No golf cart paths exist on the south side of the highway. This follows spending $850,000 of your money to buy the land on the north side of the highway upon which they hope to build the bridge.

Cops willing to help new mom, but get appointment

I am a mother of an infant boy. On Aug. 1, I tried to put in a new car seat. My husband and I did not think it was in properly so I decided to go to the Peachtree City Police Department for help.

Jackson hindered airport; keep it named 'Hartsfield'

Much has been written and verbalized about renaming Hartsfield Airport to Maynard Jackson Airport. While Jackson did many good things for Atlanta, the airport was not one of them.

Doctor on trial defended

I was in complete shock at the articles on Dr. Orlando Cano being charged with sexual harassment. I have been a patient of Dr. Cano for l7 years. If not for Dr. Cano, I would not have my two children I have now.
