Thieves target cross

TAHLEQUAH — Editor, Daily Press:

I am writing you regarding my cousin’s memorial cross on State Highway 51. He has been gone for four years now. The week before the four-year anniversary of his passing, someone stole his cross.

We didn’t think much about it, although it did upset his family. We made another one and put it up on Friday, Nov. 18. It has been stolen again.

What can we do to make this stop? Do we have a cross thief running around? Has anyone else had this problem?

  • Pray for leaders, too

    Dave Thomas needs to be sure he is uttering facts, not claims, before he prays.

  • In defense of the 2nd

    There are four reasons why I am against a mandated background check to purchase a weapon. The first is how I read the Second Amendment: “...shall not be infringed..” means that Congress does not have any authority over “arms.” I do not believe a body of fallible men and women should have that kind of authority.

  • Foot patrol needed here

    Folks are putting in [the Press] their pride for the police department. If all was so fine, why did we get a new chief?

  • In defense of cops

    One of my pet peeves is people talking about something as if it’s fact when they don’t have a clue what they’re talking about. In response to Phyllis Wilfong’s letter to the editor, let me set the record straight.

  • CN to be commended

    I have to applaud Cherokee Nation’s investment in health care.

  • In appreciation of cops

    Wow, maybe we should start dictating to our police force where, when, what time, what type of food, and with whom they should be eating! More often than not, co-workers are often seen lunching together. Why should law enforcement be looked upon any differently?

  • The unfriendly streets

    I have lived in the Tahlequah area since 1994, and since 2009, within the city limits of Tahlequah. Since 2011, I have begun running in town, and since 2012, also started bicycling in town.

  • Coming full circle

    When I was a child growing up in Tahlequah, the Indian children were looked down on. The “White” kids made fun of their names and accents.

Poll

What do you think of Sen. McCain's proposal to allow cable TV channels to be sold a la carte (individually, rather than in bundles with a lot of channels no one wants)? Bear in mind some less popular channels could go by the wayside with no bundling support, and that while overall packages should theoretically decrease in cost, individual channels might cost more.

Strongly in favor of a la carte.
Somewhat in favor of a la carte.
Somewhat opposed to a la carte.
Strongly opposed to a la carte.
