I don’t know what happened to this Pottstown mail service but it surely isn’t like it used to be. I’m a 70-year-old stroke victim that puts outgoing mail bills in the box and just because I don’t have mail they’re too lazy to come up and take the mail out of the box and it was sticking out that they could see it. Called the post office and they said their policy is if you don’t have mail then they don’t take outgoing mail. That is not the way it should be run I’m sorry. Disgusted with Pottstown Post Office

To the person in the white truck who passed us last Sunday on East High Street by the hospital, you degraded yourself by giving us the finger. You’re the reason road rage is such a problem now. I feel scared for the people driving near you. Kathleen

I’d like to know is anything going to happen or has something happened to that has-been actor Peter Fonda who actually made terroristi­c threats against the first lady and her son? They said he made a halfbaked apology but still since the first lady contacted the FBI you figured they’d be at his front door in a matter of just hours. I know for sure if it would’ve been former President Obama’s wife being threatened they would’ve been there in nano seconds. JT

When I read Sound Off I see that some people don’t care about the mistreatme­nt of children at the border and other people don’t care about abortion. As far as I’m concerned you’re both wrong and two wrongs don’t make a right.

Alan Dershowitz said that Trump has the power to bring these families back together with their children. Now whether he does it or not is another thing and if he doesn’t he’s surely an animal.

I know the Democrats need votes, Jay, but you have to look at the total picture. Going into someone’s country illegally is wrong. Would you want me to break into your house? As far as detaining them, aren’t criminals put in a cage or room and the kids don’t go with them? Jay P.

How disgusting and evil this media in this country is today. I’m talking about CNN and MSNBC particular­ly when they will not allow Angel Moms who had their children killed by illegal immigrants in this country to go on their stations to tell their stories. Unbelievab­le. The media you are just sickening and you’re really showing the people what you are about. Mom’s Mobley

Why aren’t those people who are protesting and shutting down the traffic on an interstate highway not being arrested? They’re making innocent people who had nothing to do with the shooting not be able to drive down the road and get to where they’re going. They ought to be arrested every one of them.

Melania and Donald Trump, you were so right on the money with that jacket. Congratula­tions. You didn’t find someone who is going to protest or complain, I’m on your side. I know I don’t care and there’s a couple hundred million more American people that don’t care. That was perfect. Maybe you should hand them out for free and come to Spring City. I’ll be first in line to get one and be proud to wear it.

I had been complainin­g about Vizio, my TV would not work. They are giving me a new TV. I am very glad. AA

JT, how did you find out that most of the people removed from the voting rolls in Ohio were Democrats? The truth is these people were removed because they had not voted in the last two elections not because they were secretly voting from another state. That’s ridiculous.

Lady Di you complain that the swamp isn’t doing anything about the American people. Republican­s control the House, the Senate and the presidency. They are the swamp. If nothing is getting done it’s their own fault. What in the world are you looking at? Your views are all over the place.

Sarah Sanders went to the Red Hen Restaurant in Virginia but was refused service. Now she knows how it feels for a gay couple, ordering cake for their wedding, to be refused by Kern’s Bakery in Texas. My response to Sarah Sanders is on the back of the first lady’s jacket “I really don’t care do you?” Lord Liv

It’s time to take the Statue of Liberty down. It was OK when America was young. Now America is overcrowde­d and getting worse. Only Take So Much

Politician­s are so busy trying to destroy President Donald Trump they forget what they were elected to do but they still get paid with taxpayers’ dollars.
