Final week, in broad daylight within the early afternoon, one other individual was the sufferer of gunplay. The Weapons and Gangs Unit is investigating in its traditional cleanup position. Having a small precinct in that space would get the officers nearer to the individuals, whether or not that be enterprise house owners, residents or the standard avenue crowd.

This will surely not resolve every little thing since our lax gun punishment legal guidelines play a big half in all of this, however getting the Blue Line nearer to the oldsters might have among the dangerous actors considering twice.

I’LL PICK A SIDE

Re: Tragic on each side, letter, Oct. 20

The letter author mentioned they don’t know sufficient concerning the battle in Israel to take a aspect. Nicely, I’m not up on what all went on in 1917 or 1947 and may’t keep in mind the title of the guide on my bedside desk, however I certain as heck know and keep in mind what occurred on the music pageant in Israel two weeks in the past.

I don’t know concerning the letter author, however, for me, selecting a aspect in 2023 is a no brainer. Israel is on one aspect and Hamas terrorists are on the opposite aspect.

I’m going with Israel.

IN THE HOUSE

I simply dropped one other Jiggy hit about Justin Trudeau. Sing this letter to The Animals’ Home Of The Rising Solar.

There’s a home on Parliament Hill/That homes Pierre Trudeau’s son/And it’s been the wreck, of many along with his ploys/The home of Pierre Trudeau’s son/So voters inform your youngsters/To not do what many have carried out/Don’t spend your life in ache and distress/By voting for Pierre Trudeau’s son.

WHY AN APPOINTMENT?

I feel the fixed complaints by docs being swamped and backlogged may very well be alleviated if they didn’t insist you make an appointment for prescription renewals. These time-wasting appointments to guide … go in and have them write up a renewal for a medicine. Why the necessity to guide an appointment to only have your identical prescription renewed? Clearly an appointment cost.
