I would like to send this message to anyone who has a handicap placard that you hang on your mirror in your car. Please read the part that you hang up on your mirror. At the very, very top of that it says: “Please do not leave this hanging while you’re driving.” So many people never take it down and should just put it up when your car is parked. It’s dangerous. Please follow directions.

Patricia from Phoenixville wants we the people to be more important to the politicians than the NRA. Patricia, I would like to share with you that the NRA is we the people — doctors, lawyers, musicians, pastors, your neighbors, maybe the husband and wife up the road with two teenagers who all belong to the NRA. Why? Because they love to shoot and compete. Yes the NRA are we the people just like you, millions of us. Midnight Rider Somebody in Sound off asked a great question. The question is what are the factors that can cause a decrease in democracy in the United States? The main answer would be the entitlement mentality of the liberals. That directly leads to socialist thinking which will lead to socialist government. John Q. Public

I recently was in Pottstown Hospital and I had Roth help me get through tests that I had to have done. I was scared to death and he was by my side all the time. Thank you. SJS

I’ve seen now Kellyanne Conway has three jobs to take care of in the White House. At least that’ll keep her out of trouble working there. Jay Miller

“Share the road” the sign says on Industrial Highway. We already have given up one-third of the highway for a now closed bicycle path. Also a reduced speed limit from 40 mph to 25 mph. What has sharing the road done for you the motorist? Nothing. Another bureaucratic mistake. Chief Wahoo

Lady Di, do you really think all the Trump bashing is going to stop just because you keep calling into Sound Off and repeating the same lies that Donald Trump has you believing?

Ninety percent of all federal cases end up pleading guilty. Now that Rick Gates, ex-aide to Trump’s campaign, is pleading guilty it is putting a lot of pressure on Paul Manafort, Trump’s campaign manager, and may force him to also take a plea. Manafort has made a lot of deals with Russia and as a single person can take down Trump. These charges will also be filed by states. If you’re guilty of state charges the president cannot pardon you.

This is to Lady Di in response to the comment about Chelsea Clinton being questioned. Chelsea Clinton was not a member of the administration. Ivanka is, so therefore she has to be able to handle these kind of questions.

Republicans have always championed “states rights.” Seems as though that only applies when it suits them. The administration is now suing California over sanctuary laws. Lord Liv

To Truth Be Known about the NFL protest, if the protest had nothing to do with disgracing our flag, veterans and country then they should have chosen another platform. And we don’t get our opinions from our president but I’m glad he agrees. Lady Di

This is to the person who says that he’s laughing because he thinks the Koch Brothers don’t give Hillary Clinton any money. I think he’s very mistaken. They gave Hillary Clinton money because they didn’t want to see Mr. Trump as president. Well they got a big surprise didn’t they?

Thank you West Pottsgrove maintenance crew. You were out there in front of our house and neighboring streets Wednesday around 2 a.m., out there doing your job just like all communities should have their maintenance crew do theirs. So whoever complains they’re just impatient. Hang in there, they’ll come around. Thank you again and God bless.

I looked at a new car the other day called the senior citizens model. The message in the side rearview mirror said “Objects in the mirror wish you would go a little faster.” Jim Fitch

For the veteran inquiring about photo ID, Spring City VA Clinic 610-3804357. Thank you for your service. Sanatoga Sam

Lady Di, Chelsea Clinton did not have a part in her father’s administration as Trump’s kids do. Therefore you picking on a child is only par for you and the rest of your clan.

It now appears that dozens of major U.S. companies are celebrating the Trump tax cut with massive layoffs. These include Coca-Cola, KimberlyClark, Microsoft, Pfizer and Walmart. The tax cut promoted by Trump as a job creator to make America great again is having the opposite effect. Time to turn the tables on Trump with a loud “You’re fired.” One Who Knows Sound Off is a forum to spur dialogue from residents of the communities we serve on topics of interest in those communities.
