Site for center? Dear Editor, Wouldn’t the Former Youngsville High School be a better location for the proposed Kinzua Discovery Center? This would be a good utilization and preservation of an existing building and allow funding to go toward staffing and programing instead of 10 million dollars for a new building. It sounds like a good idea and I wish them luck. Gregory Burkett, Warren Minnesota’s mess Dear Editor, Five years ago, one could’ve predicted the chaos in Minneapolis. President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and director of Homeland Security ...

Our right to protest Dear Editor, They fled horrible situations, degradation, governments allied against them, slavery and no opportunity for better lives.They fled north, enduring hardships of all kinds, even death. They sought havens and there were those who assisted them in their flight to a better life. Today there are historical markers along the Underground Railroad routes they traveled and places that gave shelter. The Cynthia Catlin Miller Pennsylvania Historical Marker north of Sugar Grove is such as she and her neighbors ignored the harsh Compromise of 1850s provision ...

But then, as some of you may already know from experience, this is what such individuals do. They have no capacity for empathy or shame, no moral center, believe that they are ...

Two sides to poor taste Dear Editor, President Trump’s comment on Rob Reiner, following the murder of the Hollywood star and his wife, was in poor taste. Such comments can alienate voters who otherwise approve of his policies. He should have said nothing. If asked for a comment, he could have said, “Reiner was a much admired director.I wish comfort for those who mourn Rob and Michele. That’s all I’ll say. Rob slandered me many times.” Reiner called Trump a “convicted felon.” The “conviction” was part of a sham trial arranged by partners of the Joe Biden ...

Looking the other way Dear Editor, Monkey Mizaaru sees no evil. Monkey Kikazaru hears no evil. Monkey Iwazaru says no evil. Japanese children learn this early on, it’s part of their culture. It is viewed as a pathway to moral clarity by shunning the secular world based on Confucius teachings. We in the West, see this as Willful Ignorance. “Turn a blind eye,” “turn a deaf ear or eye,” “pay no mind,” and “what happens in Washington D. C. stays in D. C.” are not taught to our children as admirable traits. Our United States Senators and Representatives and Cabinet ...
