Politicians need to stop being 'correct' and solve problems
ROSE MARY JONES Rusk

Do you get the feeling after watching the news about crime that our towns and cities are out of control?

It is depressing and makes me wonder what the future is going to be like. We don't need to build new jails or prisons, we need to start controlling the criminal element. It is time to bring solutions to growing problems.

Our system needs fixing and criminal activity is still running rampant. It is time that each town, each city and each state start cleaning up their own space to make it safe for citizens. Too many criminals go free and are back walking the streets to do another crime.

To correct any problem you have to have the determination and intelligence to carry out each individual case and do what is really necessary to fix that problem for the good of mankind and the communities.

We have too many people in offices who cannot make good decisions and rely on "political correctness" to carry out their duties. This does not correct problems. Take border for instance. Everyone knows it's out of control but a lot of talking is being done because of "political correctness."

The solution is to have Mexico take care of their own people like a good neighbor, but that is too simple and that would offend them. Therefore, we have a lot of serious problems to deal with and it is growing. When politicians turn a blind eye to the border problem to get votes, something is really wrong.

It's time that paid officials get down to business and write laws that fit the crime.

We have more young people doing crime because of bad movies and the Internet than ever before. Where are the parents? We are living in dangerous times, and we need lawmakers to address these problems with speed and intelligence.
