Alabama has been in the news lately for passing the nation’s strongest anti-abortion law, but it also just enacted what is being hailed by one expert as “one of the most comprehensive and effective campus free-speech laws in the country.”

I was a big fan of the TV series “The West Wing,” which aired on NBC from 1999-2006.

I read your article on security in the Pell City courthouse and as it referred to all the violence. Well, if you ask me, it's mostly due to boredom and not being taught right from wrong or the difference between reality and fantasy for the youth.

“You took something from me that wasn’t yours to take: my innocence.”

Our elected officials have failed spectacularly in closing our borders and in their oath to protect and defend America. It is time for the people to march on Washington.

Socialism promises a utopia that sounds good, but those promises are never realized. It most often results in massive human suffering.

Under the U.S. Constitution, Alabama and the other 49 states are sovereign states. All authority given to the federal government by these states was supposed to be limited to the State Department (the president’s cabinet) and our self-defense, the military. Everything else was supposed to be…

Bizarro World: Those of us who remember Superman comics, there was a Bizarro World that was the opposite of the real world, and we are heading that way if America does not put an end to these radical Democrats and the love for non-Americans and free everything.

There's a push to change laws to permit both criminals serving time and ex-criminals the right to vote. Guess which party is pushing the most for these legal changes. If you guessed that it was the Democrats, go to the head of the class. Bernie Sanders says states should allow felons to vote…

If one needed evidence of the gross ignorance of millennials, and their teachers and college professors, it's their solid support for socialism and socialist presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders.

I am furious, frustrated and disheartened by Republican politicians from the county level to the state level. Those who are supposed to represent us and support or oppose what “We the people” want no longer do so. They all support nothing but themselves and what they want and their voters be…
