Speak Out 8/24/18

Speak up about poachers

Deer season. Here it is about time for deer or tree hunting to begin. So we start havin' poachers begin their season now. This happens every year on the gravel roads south of Oglesville. Now they're usin' their dogs for coyote hunting; that's their story. But the only thing we see is the dogs runnin' the deer. Question mark, question mark, question mark. Why is it we cannot get anyone to see about this and to the gentleman who was fussin' about the penned up ones be glad. Otherwise there would be none to hunt. It's a shame the way the deer is wasted ever year at this time. And the four wheelers should be outlawed if you're gonna hunt. Let's speak up but not about the penned up deer. Thank you.

Seeking help

I'd like to know how many times you have to have your home unlawfully entered before the police dept. will do anything? I've been havin' this problem now for almost ten years they don't wanna seem to help me. So if someone could please help me I'd really appreciate it. Thank you. Bye.

Regain pride

Uh, yes, the vast majority of people on Leonard Drive and surrounding north Poplar Bluff areas have let their properties go. Looks like everyone else trying to keep their properties maintained. Please please please regain your pride north end. Thank you.
