Old school

Dear Editor:Just when you thought you were aware of most of all the inherent dangers that our pre-adults were facing - such as drug epidemic, abuses, molestations, etc. - the federal government enacts an order to our public schools (elementary, junior high and high school) on a mandatory ruling to comply to transgenderism or face losing federal and state financial aid.I'm so flabbergasted that this even made any serious consideration by our government.As for me, just such mandatory exposure to our children is ridiculous. Once you become an adult, we live in a country that allows freedom ...

Standing together

Dear Editor:I just read on Facebook about the 2016 graduation at East Liverpool High. In a society where the threat of an unfounded lawsuit has so much power, these young adults took the power back.I watched the video with tears in my eyes and pride bursting from inside. I can't even imagine the pride that the parents of these graduates have.Although I am a Christian, my feelings do not come from the fact that these students stood together to say the Lord's Prayer, it is that they stood together for something they believed in.To the East Liverpool High School Class of 2016, I would tell ...

Applaud Judge Amato’s actions

Dear Editor:Reading the headline article of the Friday, May 13th edition of The Review I was throughly impressed with the swift and decisive actions of Columbiana County Judge Chris Amato by his substantially increasing the bonds of two individuals that were charged with absolutely senseless crimes. One was for the recent random drive by shooting in Wellsville where this defendant shot up the car of a mother letting her daughter out to attend a birthday party - neither knew the other. Then, as pointed out by Wellsville Police Officer Steve Rodgers, this Rhodes Scholar then bragged about ...

A Sheep is Found

Dear Editor:Our God is gracious and all knowing. God's Holy Spirit is ever present to draw people to a saying knowledge of Christ the Savior.On a Saturday, my wife and I had a yard sale. At this time a young woman came and was looking through books for sale. I said these are all Christian reading. Are you a Christian? No, she replied but I went to church last week. My son is 12 and I need to find a church but don't know where. I said, there are a lot of good churches in our area. Find one that teaches the word of God and the new birth and born again into God's family believing Christ ...

Making a difference

Dear Editor:Something incredible is happening in our small town that's very encouraging and needs to be shared.Two years ago, the city hired a new health commissioner, Carol Cowan, to take the reins in promoting healthy living in our valley. The accomplishments in those two years are absolutely amazing and have benefitted the entire community in one way or another.Some of the programs that have been paid for through grants and/or sponsors include: Walmart grant for Evening of Nutrition and Healthy Eating 2014; Oral Cancer screening grant from Delta Dental 2016; summer youth environmental ...

Don’t go with the ‘elite’

Dear Editor:I read the opinion piece by George Will - "Who will follow Trump off the cliff." I am a combat-wounded Korean War veteran and I love my country. When I read things like he put in his piece, it makes me feel very sad at what is happening to this country.The other day, on the news, I heard that the Bush family was "staying out of the presidential race." Then I read the opinion in The Review by Cal Thomas "Socialism's false promise." When you read the articles together, you get an awakening - the Republican Party is being destroyed by people who did not get their way. The Bush ...
