Legalize marijuana, free Johnny Boone

Although I live in Indiana, I would like to write a letter about Johnny
Boone.
I do not feel that Johnny Boone should have to serve any time in prison. He
did not murder anyone. He is not a violent individual. He did a lot of good
for people in both Washington and Marion counties in Kentucky. Why is the
Commonwealth of Kentucky and the U.S. government spending millions of dollars
to prosecute and imprison a man who is not a threat to anyone?

Letter to the editor: Pluses and minuses of reorganization of schools

The recent reorganization of the middle schools in Marion County may turn out to be a good idea. It makes it possible to balance the student numbers and possibly offer more elective courses. There are probably other improvements made possible by this new arrangement. Good creative leadership here!
The need to reassign teachers is inevitable, and even though it is upsetting, it is just part of the job and is needed to best serve the students. Hopefully, this will better prepare our students for the future.

Letter to the editor: Road crew does great job

Applause! Applause! Give the Marion County road crew a big hand! They do an outstanding job of spraying road right-of-ways at the appropriate time to control weeds. They recently sprayed along Short Line Pike before broad leaf weeds like poison hemlock go to seed.

The invasion has started! Please help fight back and save our county.
Have you heard about the worse environmental invader now coming our way – bush honeysuckle? Drive around metro areas in early spring and you will find how this bush has taken over the landscape. It is first to leaf out in spring and creates a thick shade bush up to 12 feet tall.

Watch for motorcycles and don’t throw mowed grass on road

Since spring has arrived, and wonderful motorcycle weather is here, I'd like to put out some reminders to help make motorcycling safe.
Please do not go out and buy your teenager a crotch rocket (sport/racing bike) or any other kind of bike until he/she takes the Kentucky Motorcycle Rider Education Program. Without proper training, these bikes can be death machines.
