Outrageous

-

With apologies to William Warford, things I find outrageous:

• His column regarding Breonna Taylor’s boyfriend firing first. Technicall­y what he states is true. However, I wonder how many gun owners would do the same thing if their front door was knocked in the middle of night while they were minding their own business? My guess is most would shoot first and ask questions later.

• Jim Gardner’s states; “The body of Supreme Court Justice Ginsberg wasn’t even cold when Democrat Nancy Pelosi said the she and her party will use every arrow in their quivers to derail President Trump’s nomination to replace her.” Gardner is correct stating “President Trump has the constituti­onal duty to nominate members of the Supreme Court. There is no time line mentioned. There is no requiremen­t to withhold a nomination until after the election.” However, Gardner fails to mention how the Liar in Chief and his side kick Moscow Mitch mentioned replacing the late Ginsberg first. In addition, Jim fails to mention how Moscow Mitch would not hold hearings on President Barack Obama’s nominee Merrick Garland for Justice of the Supreme Court seven month out from the 2016 elections. Talk about a double standard.

• Ed Bradfield’s remarks about Gavin Newsom’s proposals for eliminatin­g gasoline vehicles. Ed states; “gasoline produced by fracking in neighborin­g states be purchased and trucked in to be sold here.” Ed does not realize oil companies can do that now, but refrain because our special blend is too costly with very little profit. Besides reducing GHG emissions, electric vehicles will also reduce criteria pollutants that create smog.

• Harold Holifield’s letter regarding the pandemic. I guess Holifield knows more about the pandemic than Dr. Robert Redfield head of the CDC? Trump doesn’t agree with the CDC. George Jung Antelope Acres
