Witness comments clash over a ricochet incident at a Texas Roadhouse where a woman was hit. Opinions rage about carry laws, permit requirements, and accountability after a shooting that could have killed diners.
A brief query asks whether investigators consider the Orlando mass killings tied to ISIS and invites readers to vote on Donald Trump’s temporary Muslim immigration ban. The prompt directs readers to cast ballots online for the poll.
James F. Burns reflects on the flag’s symbolism from its 1777 origins at Fort Stanwix to battles at Brandywine and Fort McHenry, through the Civil War, World Wars, Korea, Vietnam, and recent conflicts. He ties the flag to American ideals, liberty, and the ongoing duty to uphold rights and freedoms.
In a letter to the editor, Dave Hoesly argues Mateen’s violence reflects intolerance toward LGBTQ rights and questions a San Francisco court ruling against concealed carry. He contends self defense hinges on immediate access to firearms and notes police response times.
