Sequoyah safety

LOST CITY — Editor, Daily Press:

As a parent, I am thankful of the efforts at Sequoyah Schools to ensure student safety.

The school’s administration, along with Cherokee Nation Chief Bill John Baker, understands an investment in safety protocols makes our children safer day in and day out.

It makes me breathe easier, as a parent, knowing that Cherokee Nation marshals have practiced emergency scenarios with our kids and are on campus daily.

These investments do not ensure a Columbine or Newtown incident will never happen at our school, but I believe it is the right step to make sure our children are prepared and safe.

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?

Kudos to Daily Press
I just want to let you know how impressed I am with the professionalism displayed by Tahlequah Daily Press Managing Editor Kim Poindexter during a disturbing incident I witnessed Monday, April 1.

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.

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.
