- LETTERS TO THE
EDITOR
Splitting
circuit seems to have no supporters now
I wrote to all of
you Oct. 31 about some apparent scheming to split up the Griffin Judicial
Circuit and to make Fayette County into its own judicial district. My
letter went to all legislators in the Griffin Circuit, judges, county
commissioners, newspapers and radio stations.
Why
no black faces in series?
As an African-American
citizen of Fayette County, I was disappointed in two pieces in your
Nov. 5, 2003 edition. I feel these two items are offensive to African
Americans.
Let’s
get a race tally in stories
I congratulate Lionel
Spearman for exposing the omission of “white male” in the
horrific PTC rape-torch case. His sensitivity is very understandable.
Increasingly it appears a minority is automatically assumed to be the
perpetrator of the crime.
Tennant
loss: Who will confront mayor?
I believe Dan Tennant
did a great job in responding to the half-truths of Steve Brown. I would
have liked to see Dan get another opportunity to represent the people
of Peachtree City but this was not in the cards. We need more people
like him in public office to stand up to what was accurately termed
by Dan as the “unemployed mayor.”
Tennant
loss 1st step in removing dividers
Congratulations
to Stuart Kourajian on his victory over Dan Tennant for Post 2 on the
Peachtree City Council.
Poolman:
Councilman must stand up for PTC citizens
First of all I wish
to thank the thousands of people that came to the polls to cast a vote
Nov. 4. I look forward to receiving your vote again at the Nov. 25 runoff
election.
Rutherford
has built-in conflict of interest if she wins
It took the Enron
situation, for Fortune 500 industries to realize that hiring the consulting
firms owned by their big 5 auditing firms was a conflict of interest.
What is it going to take for Peachtree City to realize that we should
not enter into known conflicts of interest on our City Council?
Behind
that red ribbon celebrated in schools is a story
The last week of
October again marked National Red Ribbon Week observances all over the
U.S. Locally, many of you who have children in public schools again
participated in the yearly ritual of promoting in your children the
positive message of a drug-free lifestyle.
Let’s
give Iraq to U.N. and get out before more are killed
Subject: Welcome
to Dien Bien Phu.
Why
is this doctor prosecuted?
Fayetteville citizens:
Who will your courts prosecute next? A doctor who delivered 1100 babies?
A doctor who performed an emergency c-section to save a 10-pound baby
whose mom could not push him out? Will it be the president next?
Smoking
ban makes sense for life in Fayette
I was somewhat surprised
by the media statement that the Commissioners gave a cool reception
to the proposed smoking ban in our county. However, I do not know how
many of you may be smokers and how much politics and/or revenue enter
into the equation but as a lowly taxpayer, I wish to add an additional
two cents.
