Read what people are saying about some of the hottest topics in Carroll County.

I think any of our young student athletes participating in any sport during warm/hot weather is at risk. I did not read the guidelines presented at the BOE board meeting, they seem to be pretty extensive, is a move in the right direction. All coaches are to take training to notice the warning signs.  --Jag

Unfortunately, in today's world its necessary. It will give parents a little more comfort knowing the driver behind the wheel of the school bus is certified by the County. I'm surprised the contractors and drivers haven't requested ID's before now to protect themselves.   --Vmail

 

And good Lord, no one is saying we should deport Americans! The point is, that we are (or were) deporting people who would do jobs that many Americans wouldn't take. Money is not necessarily the issue--there are plenty of people working minimum wage at Wal Mart and fast food places. The jobs that businesses are having trouble filling with Americans are the hard labor, outdoor, dirty, and sometimes dangerous jobs that these illegals are willing to take.  --Kathy

 

What happened to freedom of choice and government staying out of the peoples business. Don't you love Republicans like Justin Ready. They want to impose draconian regulations on a women's reproductive choices. They want regulations to surpress a person's right to vote. Now they want to regulate a person's choice to gamble but they have no problem with everyone carrying a gun.  You can't have it both ways. --David J Iacono

 

The younger generations are the ones who will be hurt, big time. Obama won't care..his money will take care of him, his wife and children.. Reid won't give a hoot either...but the average American (our children, grandchildren) will suffer for sure!!! --Lorna D. Rudnikas
