Why do the state legislators dream up and pass so many feel-good laws that are ineffectual at best? Those are then passed on to the law enforcement departments that are already stressed beyond capacity.

Why does the governor sign those bills into law in the first place? They are costly and use up tax money that the state cannot afford.

Why are so many people criticizing the small country of Israel for fighting back at a bullying presence? If a bully is continually hurting you, there comes a time when you need to kick back where it hurts.

People should criticize Hamas and its backers; they are the aggressors, and should first stop firing missiles into Israel. Their agenda is to destroy Israel and to continue aggression throughout the world.

Get them to stop first and there will not be a need for Israel to fight back.
