Politics, the Constitution of the United States, veterans of war, border patrol agents, cutbacks by hooligans and drug dealers and a government awash in scandal one after another.
Lies, deceit and setbacks, arms folded, smiles about everything.
What a very sad, disgusting and pathetic situation we have in this country and abroad.
Russia (the Big Bear) on the hunt for more territory. China wants war over some Japan islands. Mideast on the verge of war with Israel, and our fearless leaders just want to talk and appease.

Name calling won’t get us anywhere near solving the zoning hassle in Grayson. All it does is make people mad and logic goes out the window.
Meanwhile, three of our supervisors are part of an orchestrated effort to throw Grayson County open to “developers” intent on cutting this lovely land into pieces for their own purposes, regardless of environmental impact.
They trade on local resentment caused by operators who raped the land and robbed the people and moved local jobs overseas.

I get so sick of reading things in the paper from the people that want to keep zoning.  It’s clear that the same people keep writing. Writing the same old stuff.
I do not want zoning and I know a lot of people that want it gone, too.
Just because we aren’t public speakers or take the time to write and write and write doesn’t mean we aren’t out here.
We’re the ones that elected these supervisors in. Clearly they won, so clearly there are a lot of us get‑rid‑of‑zoning people out here.

Carroll County Public Service Authority board member David Hutchins was recently quoted in a news report:
“When we look at our systems, we look at Fancy Gap water, and while it is funded that way, Rural Development looks at it as Carroll County has a water system.
