Letters: Twin rants

James Baker can't figure out why local lawnforcement can't enforce laws over which it has no jurisdiction, and Susan Patricks wants to give Elise Townsend a punch in the nose. The interesting bit is the correction related to yesterday's letter from Amy Reyes, citing an "editing error" -- was it Amy's error, or the editor's?

  2. Lots of folks dont understand the whole Jurisdiction thing ..Believe me Mr Baker the way it is now is a good thing.
    on this last part of his letter

    "this thing about children born in this country to illegal aliens who are then U.S. citizens,they can go back with their parents. When they reach a legal age, they can then come back if they want."

    he has a point ..I hate to admit it but he has a point.
    Its one of many completely fucked things about our immigration laws that should be fixed. maybe the first one since it involves Babies ,causes so much misery ,and costs so much money.
    The way our country has mishandeled this whole immigration thing is only slightly less shamefull than the occupation of Iraq.

I encourage you to share your own views and experience with me and other readers. How you do that matters, and I'm committed to maintaining a place where readers and commenters can feel safe from adolescent BS. So here's the deal:

There are two kinds of anonymous comments: those by people who have a genuine fear of revenge from the dark side, and those from darksiders just hiding to avoid accountability. You may post comments anonymously, but I reserve the right to treat anonymous comments as found items that belong to me and do with them as I see fit.

If, on the other hand, you're willing to stand by your convictions and post under your own name or a regular handle, your comments belong to you, and I'll edit them only on egregious violations of respect for others.

If this doesn't work for you, I'm sure you'll be happier somewhere else.
