I recently read that Trump was elected president, in spite of all his flaws, not because of “economic unrest”, but because of “racial unrest.” Something to consider.

I live at the proposed entrance to the St. Simons Land Trust’s waterfront park and boat ramp. I moved to German Village in 1991 when there were no paved streets in our neighborhood, including Village Drive. Over the last 28 years, I have watched our little community gradually grow to include…

This new subterfuge by the radical left is a dangerous allure to conflate two antipodal concepts of government, and to make them seem totally compatible with each other. If you believe this oxymoron, then you’ll passively accept the radical left’s new ploy to seduce millennials and minoritie…

Well folks here is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez with another brilliant idea. Now she has made a statement that the Federal Government needs to demolish the Department of Homeland Security.

I just returned from two weeks in the Scandinavian countries which the democratic socialists (and my adult children) tout as the role model of how the United States should run things — taxpayer paid-for health care, taxpayer paid-for post high education, etc.

As individual members of the SPLOST 2016 Oversight Committee, we take issue with Commissioner Browning’s criticism that the SPLOST Oversight Committee has overstepped our mission.

With all the hoopla surrounding the German Village issue, a major rezoning for increased development on St. Simons has gone unnoticed.

I considered Terry Dickson a good friend and dedicated kindergarten father when I taught his daughter many years ago. I have read and appreciated his well-thought-out articles. But after reading his recent article on the use of Village Drive as a park and boat launch entrance, I was disappoi…

I commend The Brunswick News for being among those few brave papers on the outside looking in. You would have to be an Oberlin College graduate to deny America’s one-sided liberal media. Nearly every major city paper, all mainstream network and most cable TV is non-stop liberal babble.

The rhetoric from the right, and misleading and often wrong attacks are already piling up, and will only get worse until the election. Racism, discrimination and immigration in America are some of many challenges for Republicans. For far too long, many in America have been discriminated agai…

I read with interest Mr. Bernstein’s Letter to the Editor on June 29 about “Government bodies hurting development in the Isles.”

I’m glad JIA Executive Director Jones Hooks wants to stick to the facts in his July 9 Letter to the Editor regarding Jekyll Island’s proposed lighting ordinance changes.

The Brunswick News should change its name to The Conservative Opinion. I’m tired of opening to the Commentary section and seeing nothing but biased op-eds masquerading as political analyses filled with one-sided half-truths and outright lies.

Ross Perot and his family used to vacation here back in the 60s. In his passing, I am reminded of working with him and his wife, Margot, in the early 1980s, when they became interested in returning and buying something on the ocean on Sea Island.

In response to Terry Dickson’s column “July 4th for us, not about us,”President Trump is not the only President to have a parade of military personnel and weaponry.

Democratic candidates are campaigning for universal health care for everyone, including illegal immigrants. Bernie Sanders claims it will lower costs. They use Canada and Western Europe’s programs as a comparison. The problem is they aren’t comparable.

Between 1880 and 1940, 5,000 African American citizens were lynched with impunity, a sin never confessed for lack of shame. And we all know how it is with unconfessed sins: We repeat them to prove they were right to begin with, so Jim Crow became the next order of business.

Concerning Mary Ross Park, I was shocked at the insensitivity of the Urban Redevelopment Agency’s decision to relocate the Liberty Ship model “elsewhere” as if its location does not matter, just to provide space for the splash pad.

For over four decades, I witnessed the banks that I worked for generously give to support various charities and community events. What an encouragement it was to recently see other for-profit businesses take Godly and patriotic actions.

Over the past decade, the Jekyll Island Authority has invested nearly $14 million in our Georgia Sea Turtle Center. Today, 14 employees, 26 AmeriCorps members, and 120 volunteers are working to conserve turtles on Jekyll Island.

I recently wrote a letter to the Jekyll Island Authority (JIA) regarding my concerns about proposed changes to their lighting ordinance. I received a boilerplate response from Conservation Director Ben Carswell: Rest assured, we’ve got this. Trust us.

Georgia’s new anchoring law is an anti-boating piece of legislation. The measure’s main sponsor Rep. Don Hogan (R-St. Simons Island) put forth many untrue statements in promoting the bill, including that the bill targets only live-aboard boaters and the absence of current laws addressing ove…

I’m writing in response to an article entitled “Sand Saga” on the debate and concern about beach erosion affecting the Golden Isles.

Listening to the Democrat debates last week, I was interested to hear of proposals which might sway my vote.

Until recently, I wasn’t sure whom I detested the most, either car salesmen or politicians. I now have chosen politicians because it is so clear after recent debates that they are trying to crash the economy with freebies for everyone.

July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress approved the final wording of the Declaration of Independence; which was formally delivered to Great Britain in November. In spite of unimaginable danger, our fledgling nation spread her wings and officially cut the ties of bondage to England.

Catherine Ridley’s Letter to the Editor is a storm warning flag for all who are dedicated to continue protection efforts for sea turtles and their hatchlings.

It seems like a ‘no-brainer’ that sea turtle nesting habitat could be degraded by the changes proposed by the Jekyll Island Authority (JIA) in Jekyll’s beach lighting ordinance.

A recent article published in The News said that Glynn County had more road deaths than any other county in Georgia. Frankly, there are more aggressive drivers and speeders in Glynn County than I have seen anywhere outside of Fulton County.
