Letter: Attack Challenges

Councilman Douglas Pauley was absent from the Fairfield County Council meeting on Monday, September 23rd.  After hurling many allegations regarding me in The Voice Newspaper dated September 20, 2019, the 2nd Comment Session on the Fairfield County Council Agenda was cancelled by Chairman Cornelius Robinson.  Therefore, I was not able to challenge his assertions.  It […]

Letter: Why Meadow Died

I urge everyone to purchase and read Andrew Pollack’s just-released book, Why Meadow Died: The People and Policies That Created The Parkland Shooter and Endanger America’s Students.

Letter: Fine is Only $100 for Yellow Line Roulette

Passing a car on a double yellow line in South Carolina is Russian Roulette.

Letters: Fanning’s Operation Chaos

Apparently, Sen. Fanning is heck bent on marching forward with “Operation Chaos in Fairfield” via his latest appointee upheaval – the possible reappointment of the election commission this time. Once again, is Fanning’s whim going to place the county at risk by trading qualified experience for his costly agenda – an all-at-once upheaval instead of […]

Letters: What in the Heck

What in the heck was Sen. Fanning thinking when he set in motion the now- exposed-as-farcical Great Magistrate Upheaval? Why did we need a wholesale Magistrate change in the first place? Did he really believe the public would be silent about a tainted selection process which included a heavy dose of good ole boyism in […]

Letters: Redemption for JWC

Events surrounding the Jenkinsville Water Company clearly indicate its prudent path to redemption is to join the Fairfield Water Authority. First, it makes common sense to have a coordinated and united water authority to facilitate growth and welfare for the county. Second, JWC could use the help. Clearly, JWC has a history of troubling challenges. […]

Letters: Keep Up The Fight

I think most would agree that the bringing forth of life is a tremendous blessing.  However, we can’t look past the fact that women experience pregnancy in many different circumstances, some extremely difficult and even life threatening.  The right to make decisions about what is best for her own body is just that… her decision.
