Take a look at what friends and neighbors are saying about local hot topics and join in on the conversati­on.

About the wall being built, you got that right Jim Dandy. Also someone commented about Donald Trump’s morals how horrible they are. Hey at least his affairs were before he got in the White House not in the oval office. —The Golden Ager

Well Dianne Feinstein is once again proving herself to be an absolute monster who doesn’t care about unborn children. The fact is that Mr. Kavanaugh is pro life and they will do anything they can to try and keep him off the Supreme Court including throwing up this Dr. Ford at the last second who is obviously making up the whole story.

I thought the law was that if you are accused of something you’re allowed to face your accuser. How can this woman that is accusing Kavanaugh ask for all the special items that she wants before she’s going to testify and doesn’t want him in the room and also she wants him to make his part of the defense before she speaks? How can any of this be legal? I just can’t believe what these Democrats are up to.

JC, Republican­s have abandoned their principals of fiscal conservati­sm cozying up to the former head of the KGB. We are the only nation on earth to pull out of the global climate agreement. Republican­s promised to cut the deficit and now it’s projected to almost double over the next decade. Instead of a change in immigratio­n laws they want to build a $25 billion wall. They also passed a tax cut for the rich.

I agree with the person who called in about the light at High Street and Moser Road. I also get confused, I thought I was the only one. I’m also confused about the signage at Armand Hammer and High Street. It says right turn signal but then there’s also a red yield. So what sign do you go by? If you have the right turn signal and the light is green do you have a right of way or do you have to yield to the red? For some reason it confuses me.

I went to the Perk Valley/ OJR football game Friday night and haven’t enjoyed a marching band as much as I did that night. I might not be a music expert but those band students at OJR are absolutely amazing. I am still humming the Star Wars music. Keep up the good work OJR band. —Keep On Marching OJR

Jim Fitch, when you were talking about kids coming out of college not knowing how to make decisions you have to understand early 20s that’s the stage that they’re going through. That’s part of positive theory. —Jay Miller

I’ve been watching these women and men on all these news channels talking about the #MeToo movement and all the women that have been saying that they’ve been victims of sexual misconduct especially what’s going on with the Supreme Court nominee, they say they must all be believed. So I’m wondering does that mean that Hillary Clinton now must accept the fact that her husband was a sexual predator and these women who accused him were right? —Mom’s Mobley

Attaboy, Tiger, you must have been inspired by the Sound Off clippings I’ve been sending you about the people who want to see you fail. Good luck at the Ryder Cup. —Lord Liv

To the ones asking where do I get my facts about Brett Kavanaugh being a sexual abuser, I get my facts from fake news just like you. And to the one who said I don’t have the moxie to sign my comment, I’m sure if I look in the phone book under JB, Gilbertsvi­lle, I’ll know who you are. Yeah, right.

Lady Di, so you think a wall and a supply of unrestrict­ed assault weapons will make you and your family safer? I do not know about any immediate danger you may be in but I have a suggestion, build a wall around your house and mount it with assault weapons. You will save taxpayers billions and you may be safer, but what a way to live. —Frattbak

To the person who said Trump has lost his mind, you are assuming he had one in the first place. —Bob, Not From Mont Clare

I was reading a newspaper and I had the national news on TV on Sunday and I looked up to see all these people swarming towards this person. I thought maybe it was the pope but no, lo and behold it was Tiger Woods. I switched to another channel right away because I was afraid I was going to see someone curl up to him and kiss his feet. It makes me sick. He’s a phony. —Jimmy
