Voter Polls

Today before walking inside to vote I was approached by someone who asked me if I was a Democrat?  I did say No but I don't think voters should be subjected to such questioning at the polls. Thank you

Sanctuary County and State

Hey Dennis, Thanks for always being straightforward with us. 

As a Montgomery County resident for all of my 82 years and serving in the Marine Corps in Vietnam, and being disabled with Agent Orange, I'm disgusted with the way our county has deteriorated because of the Sanctuary counties and state here. Did I really serve my country and county to watch it all go down the tubes? I don't know how many years I have left with Agent Orange gnawing away at my once young body, but I do know I have a voice and a vote and I will do all I can to voice my opinion where applicable. Who can you trust anymore except President Trump and our Republicans who are giving their all to make sense of this situation? 

I come from a Democratic union family, which back in the day was ok for people like my dad who was a sheet metal worker. I remember the times the union was on strike and we ate bread and soup just to survive the sometimes long strikes without pay. Over the years the Democrats went south and had their own agenda that slowly but surely ruined America and their party. I gravitated over to independant and then Republican parties having had it with politics as we saw it with the Democratic party. Now my wife and I have been Republican voters for many years and hopefully for many years in the future.

How can we survive in MC with so many illegals living together in one house, never learning English, having loud mufflers, loud boombox salsa music, parking their vehicles on the lawns, and drunken parties all the time? And I'm told MS-13 is thriving in MC. I live in a neighborhood that is practically owned by slum lords. So how can this change? I've had to call MC inspectors for trash cans and garbage left all over the streets and lawns. One neighbor is operating a business out of his house, and another is operating a lawn care company on a vacant piece of land at the end of our street with trucks coming and going with debris falling all over our streets. The county will not send any inspectors before hours or after hours to ticket them. They claim they can't work those hours and therefore cannot issue a ticket. The police come around sometimes to warn the loud noise makers but it's not set in stone. And to top it all, the county council is a sick joke! No help there. With all their members being radical leftist liberals with agenda's, you can see where MC is ending up.

So you asked for an opinion and I hope this sheds some light on what this 82 year old and wife go through daily. It's supposed to be the twilight years but not the MC I grew up in. We can't afford a gated retirement community, so suffer we must. I pray to the Lord a lot these days. 

Blessings,
