Dear editor,

Something for the citizens to think about.

Another nut case with a gun kills a dozen people at the Washington Navy Yard. Another cry goes out for more gun control. There are no cries to get nut cases off the street. A couple of items of interest come to mind. First, is the fact that the liberal mindset is once again exposed because the libs attribute the killings to an inanimate object. Left unattended, a gun will lie quietly for years without bothering anyone. [Full Story »]

The Dodge County Indians hosted the Wheeler County Bulldogs in Eastman this past Friday night at Memorial Stadium.

Dodge County scored early in the game with an interception on the Bulldogs’ first drive in the game that resulted in a 33-yard run by Indian Kyle Glover. The extra point attempt by Mitch Tanner was no good and the Indians took an early lead 6 to 0. The offensive line led by quarterback Landon Martin looked impressive very early in the game.

The second offensive possession by the Bulldogs gave no results as the Indian defense held them to a no score. [Full Story »]
