The essay reflects on patriotism during Independence Day celebrations and the role of symbols like the flag and national anthem. It notes how symbols carry deep emotion and can be misinterpreted amid heated public debate, particularly about NFL players kneeling to protest police brutality and racial inequality.
A community columnist argues real patriotism is about defending liberty, democracy, and equal rights, not outward flag worship. She asserts that veterans serve ideals like religious freedom, rule of law, a free press, and civil rights, and recalls 1776 to urge defending these truths against those who threaten voting, courts, and law enforcement. Barbara Mexeske, retired teacher of Park Township, is cited with contact.
A campaign aide questions whether anything matters amid nonstop Trump era turmoil from Stormy Daniels to border separations. The piece notes deficits rising past GDP by 2028 and cites Tax Policy Center on the 2017 tax cuts, arguing they favor the wealthy and burden future generations. David Van Ginhoven of West Olive provides the closing note.
Reader urges Bill Huizenga to back the Family Reunification Act, arguing for a faster structured immigration path with maintained border security. Claims 12.5 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. and notes cost and tax implications of citizenship versus removal. Also endorses Michael Villar for Allegan County prosecutor, praising his qualifications and work as a judge and clerk.
