In response to Jim Mowell’s June 17 letter, all anyone has to do is view the video The Herald Bulletin has online. It’s plain to see that Dixon knew very well he had the concealed weapon on his person. Yes, the officers missed it during their search, but that was likely because they knew they were dealing with a city councilman and did not want to “ruffle his feathers.” No excuse, I know, but what’s done is done.
What I liked is when The Herald Bulletin first published the story, Dixon was quoted as saying he was not drunk and that law enforcement had a duty to arrest anybody they thought had been drinking, but he was not drunk! He was so drunk he did not know where he was. By the way, is this not his third arrest on alcohol-related charges? And still not a felony? No, Mr. Mowell, I will not worry if the law is upheld and Dixon is found guilty. Because he is guilty.

Letter: Elected officials should buy insurance
I may be wrong but I thought the city and county were hurting for money, and that’s why services keep getting cut or eliminated. One thing is evident. There is no shortage of money for lawsuits.

Letter: Let’s work through the problems
On May 14 I attended the county council meeting in hopes that I could understand what is happening in the legislative branch of our Madison County government. What I saw was politics at its worst and I cannot applaud either party.

Letter: Columnist Brown ignores truth
It’s hard to understand why The Herald Bulletin carries columns by Susan Stamper Brown, who has such a blatant disregard for truth in her conservative propaganda.

Are those who worry about the loss of the wheel tax concerned about the roads or about their jobs? Most of them could care less about people’s needs.
