Unbelievable

I couldn't believe my eyes when I read the letters written by Max Beer and Bennie Hively on Oct. 5.

Mr. Beer, 9/11 happened and there was no "hoax" about it. Whoever started the "9/11 conspiracy theory" is either a couple of cards shy of a full deck or laughing at the fools believing it. You should move to Iran where there is one other person who thinks like you do.

Please take Bennie Hively with you. Perhaps he will realize after a time just how important our Constitution is to our Republic, and to the freedom and liberty we enjoy in these United States. It is every true Americans' job to defend the Constitution. Mr. Hively needs to apologize to all of us and the angry NRA members.[[In-content Ad]]Those two letters hold the most crazy comments I have read since Tom Metzgers' letters. Some of you need a large dose of reality. I'm hoping and praying that will come by evening of Nov. 2.

If it wasn't for our Constitution and its amendments, none of us would have the freedom to write these letters. To me, the First and Second Amendments are the most important of all of them, and I believe that's why they are First and Second.

To say our founding documents are "outdated and have no authority" is like saying the same of our Holy Bible. Those two gentlemen have written letters that to me are ludicrous.

Facts are that we must vote for freedom, liberty and the Constitution on Nov. 2. Change is in the air.

To bring back the American Dream, and straighten out as many wrongs as possible that this liberal Washington has imposed upon all of us, think long and hard before you vote. Get a voters card and learn as much as you can about each candidate and what they stand for. Don't vote blindly please.

God bless our troops, God bless our freedoms and God bless America.
