    A letter to the editor from one of our "liberal" readers generated several comments over the past week, with some supporting his stance and others opposing his viewpoint. Schools, police, animal issues and bad drivers also caused several of our readers to register their opinions with the "Sound Off" line.

    The recent arrest of John Ward on two counts of felony reckless endangerment and one count of aggravated assault for firing gunshots at people he thought were trying to steal an old car from his property was fodder for some of our "Sound Off" readers, all of whom said they felt he shouldn't have been charged.
  • Readers comment on what others have had to say
    It was another active week for readers of the "Sound Off" line as they recorded their opinions on a wide array of issues and subjects.
