Critic of local residents might want to move away

Carol Smith in her letter alludes to the fact that area residents are uninformed and have “a lack of knowledge about our city, county, state and federal governments.”

Seems to me it’s not a lack of knowledge but a difference of opinion, and the well-informed people she refers to are simply those who share her views.

Since she recently moved back and feels she is living in a different world, she might take Lewis Grizzard’s comment, “Delta is ready when you are.”

Grow up. There are many people in the community who do not keep up with local and national issues. The same goes for other communities through out the country. So what is the problem with some criticism? It may apply to you or it may not, certainly someone around you could use a little push that may trigger some thought other than anger. I hope the person stays around and continues to rouse the public and add to public debate. Given your comments, I can only assume you are likely persecutor as well.... friendly, thoughtful, and educated person, humm!!
