I’m still beating my drum to see if we can do something about the Keim Street bridge. I have absolutely no idea how many millions and millions of dollars we have spent on Armand Hammer Boulevard. For what? It makes absolutely no sense. Mr. Hennessey, Mensch, Rafferty, come on guys let’s do something positive, positive.

To Common Sense, the NRA has as much to do with the shootings as Chrysler has to do with drunk driving. They have been warning of vulnerability of the schools and that only teachers should be armed. There have been two attacks in the last 40 years in Israel where employees are trained and armed. Any suggestions of this nature are rapidly rejected by the Democrats and their only objective is to disarm America. Captain America

This is to the person that was upset that they got a $10 raise in their paycheck for the week due to the tax cut but gas is now $3 a gallon. Just wait a couple of years when the Dems are back in and the EPA is out of control and gas is at $5 a gallon and they raise your taxes by $40 a week in your paycheck. Maybe you’ll be happier then.

It is that time of year to clean our yards and get ready for summer. Let’s also remember not to blow the grass clippings on the street. It takes away the appearance of your lawn property.

To the person that says Tiger Woods’ ex-wife didn’t get anything, you better read the “USA Today.” They estimated she got $50 million.

In September 2015 there was a time capsule opened in Pottstown at High and Hanover streets. Some of the items along with new items from the public were to be buried with a new capsule in Pottstown. Whatever happened to these items and if there’s a capsule buried where did they bury it? Mr. Time Machine

Referring to these chemtrails, I don’t have a computer so I can’t go on YouTube to find out more about them. So I’m wondering if someone can tell me who is responsible for these things and why are they doing this? Why would they be putting these chemicals in the air that are bad for us?

I recently attended an Owen J. Roberts School Board meeting where taxpayers asked questions at the public comment section and the board sat there, sat there and didn’t answer their questions, didn’t even attempt to answer the questions. Sat there stone faced and said “Thank you.” Outraged OJR Taxpayer What idiots leave their pets loose near a busy intersection?

For the people complaining about the cones at the middle school they are not put there by the crossing guards, they’re placed there by the police. You need to take your beef up with them. And furthermore, another crossing guard is quitting their position due to the constant abuse from the undisciplined kids and impatient adults. Good luck to the school district in finding a replacement, you’re going to need it.

Property taxes will soon be in the mail. Time to do something about House Bill 76. Our representatives sure are not helping us. Vote them all out. Just look at all the sheriff sales in the paper. People can no longer pay these taxes. We need House Bill 76.

I attended the recent Owen J. Roberts School Board meeting as a taxpayer and I asked questions during public comment and they refused to answer any of them. Their only response was “Thank you.” They didn’t even acknowledge my questions and I am very irate. Please have someone look into this.

For the person that called in and said that Pottstown can’t even afford to fix their streets, apparently you don’t drive round Pottstown much because I’ll tell you many streets are already ripped up and ready to be repaved.

I was reading in The Mercury about the taxpayers and why the hospital and The Hill School are tax exempt. I noticed out on Adams Street they’re taking a lane of the taxpayers’ traffic to make room for The Hill School people to park when they have events at the far field. I’m sorry I don’t think this is fair. We have a hard enough time in this town to pay our taxes.

Any intelligent person knows Fox News is fake news generated by Trump and Hannity.

Was on my way to King of Prussia and couldn’t believe my eyes. People mowing in between the dividers on Route 422 running over the trash. Now it looks like we have more trash. Why can’t we get somebody out there to clean up the trash before they mow?

As usual Columnist E.J. Dionne only sees half the picture. The progressives are as much of a problem as the conservatives.
