To the Editor:

On September 14th I was pleased to read opinions from Mr. Williams, Mr. Flowers, and Mr. Barnes, and found myself agreeing with most all of what they had to say. I too am a Christian as Mr. Barnes, and find abortion to be a terrible act as well, but I will leave the judging to God.

Our friend Mr. Busch, as the other gentlemen have stated, keeps saying that President Biden is a constant law breaker, but never says what laws he’s broken. I’m betting I know where he’s getting his information, and that would be his favorite source, Faux News, the “Misinformation Station”. I’ve never seen anything appearing on the honest award winning news channels like CBS, ABC, NBC, PBS, or News Nation. I wonder what sources would be more correct?

It seems that our ex-president once again is talking out of both sides of his mouth. When he was campaigning in 2016, he repeatedly called for lengthy jail sentences for those he claimed mishandled classified information. What is leaving boxes of “Top Secret” documents in your house in an unsecured room? Trump repeatedly promised that his administration would strictly enforce all rules regarding classified material. He said in August of 2016, and I quote his exact words “In my administration, I’m going to enforce all laws concerning the protection of classified information. No one will be above the law.” End of quote. It seem he thinks there is someone above the law!!!

It appears that there is something that I agree with Donald Trump on, and that is lengthy jail sentences for those who mishandle classified information. Remember he said “no one is above the law.”

I think he would look good in an orange prison jumpsuit, it would match his skin color.
