Wild speculation does no one any good and frequently leads to more problems. Why not wait and find out the facts of the issue and then respond as your ethics and values dictate. Now, I understand that many in Paulding County (particulary leadership) are not comfortable with facts or the truth. Most likely because they are so unfamiliar with them. But we shoud endeavor to be principled, educated citizens of our county and work with only facts and verified, honestly sourced information. Leave the lies and speculation to the dishonest and ignorant. Only then can we properly respond an

Poor Concerned Pldg Resident, I suspect you check under your bed and in the closet every night for the evil Delta monster before you go to bed. You do know it's not possible to take you seriously right?

Just going to weigh in here, not replying to anything in particular. I did'nt think the lady's initial comments were necessary. Neither did Chairman Austin and he called her on it right up front.

He was our rightful King and the colonists considered themselves as English, and accepted him as their King. Things went south when the recognized government (the King and Parliament) began to abuse their authority by over taxing the colonists along with other abuses. The colonists protested this abuse. When the government pushed back with military intervention and the attempted confiscation of we

So, if I am understanding this thread, it is being posited that any personal/financial problems a person may have or had precludes them from criticizing their elected officials? That is a pathetic, back against the wall, last ditch effort to defend the indefensible and only serves to make the one positing the idea look like a fool. It is a citizen's duty to question their government, regardless of their tax status. Not trusting the government is what our country was founded on. If our county officials can't handle the scrutiny being brought to bear then perhaps more scrutiny is n
