How are drivers going to be able to pull over and get out of the way for emergency vehicles that need to get through? With all the bike lanes, cutting down of the lanes, there’s no place for the driver to pull over unless they pull over in somebody’s yard. I was on Jackson Street by the golf course the other day and there’s no place to pull over if an emergency vehicle comes through because they have the poles there for the bicycle lanes and everything. Poor planning.

So much for the bike lanes in Pottstown. When driving in Pottstown all you see is these kids riding their bikes down the middle of the street popping wheelies and riding on the sidewalks. What a waste.

Thank you Mr. President for your superb leadership and reversing the course of our country and bringing us back from the brink of disaster. We the moral majority have long awaited this revival of freedom and values and now you have given us another outstanding pick for the Supreme Court. Even if your remaining service produces little more you will far exceed my previous 14 presidents.

Very disheartening to see people in their 60s, 70s and 80s going to work everyday to pay bills. And then you have the other segment of our population. The young ones sitting home all day partying, free food, free clothes, free rent, free electric, free air conditioning. Sooner or later it’s all going to end. Anyway, welcome to Obama’s world.

That family who just got trapped over in a foreign country, they went over there supposedly to help the poor people. We have plenty of poor people right here in this country they can help here. If they’re Americans, stay here and help your own. Don’t run around the world trying to help everybody else who could care less about us. Stay here and help your neighbors.

This is to the people who think this is a joke about Trump changing the Supreme Court. Well he wants to change pre-existing conditions too. That means if you had a pre-existing condition with your medical insurance you wouldn’t be covered. Just think about it. High blood pressure and all the other things wouldn’t be covered. You won’t be laughing so much then when that happens. We’ll all be affected by it.

Basketball player LeBron James worth millions of dollars, I don’t believe so. But all the gentlemen that were involved in rescuing those boys out of that underwater disaster, those poor children in Thailand, they deserve millions of dollars all those rescuers.

The nurses on the fifth floor of the Pottstown Hospital were just wonderful. I can’t speak highly enough. They deserve a big fat raise. My heart goes out to all of you.

This is to the person who commented on Tuesday that the bike lanes were painted or decaled not using any taxpayer money and that project was funded with federal money. My question is to this person, exactly where do you think the federal government gets their money from?

Oh those pesky little black bugs with white dots on them have invaded Reynolds Avenue. You can’t sit on your porch, they’re all over, they’re just getting bigger. What can be done about it? Help.

I see Trump is pulling money out of Obamacare. Think he would do whatever he could for the poor that are on Obamacare, have something to replace it as these people will have no care at all. I know what the Republicans say, “Let them go to the emergency room, they will care for them.” However if they are told they have cancer then they need follow up which they cannot get without health care. Let them die.

Despite what several recent Sound Off commentators have said all visitors to this country including those entering illegally have certain rights provided by the Fourth and Fifth amendments of the U.S. Constitution. These rights include due process and the right to a trial and to representation.

Thank you to the honest men at Sea Star Solutions who returned my lost cell phone. Their kind actions make me realize there are good people.

Responding to the caller complaining about President Trump’s travel itinerary, did you have the same concerns with Barack Obama? Just curious about that. Can you say hypocrite? Get over it.

On July 10, 2018, gasoline at Wawa was $3.09 cents a gallon. Thanks a lot Obama.

Now that they put that stupid bike lane on Jackson Street alongside the Y, who’s responsible for cutting the 2-foot high weeds that are growing alongside the bike lane?
