Letters

This letter was read at the recent Leitchfield City Council meeting by it’s writer.
I am not a native son of Leitchfield/Grayson County, however I am proud to now be a Kentuckian and also a Kentucky Colonel. I am a true American and a patriot. I (attended the city council meeting) to fight for the security and sanctity of my home and that of my family’s, friends’ and also those of complete strangers.

After a brief absence, I opened my mailbox to find my Dec. 8 edition of The Record and was flabergasted to read teh headlines that the city council was going to tackle the issue of higher gasoline prices in our fair city. Where have they been all these years? As a retired truck driver, I’ve been asking this question for years that I’ve resides in the area only to have them fall on deaf ears.

Regarding the triangle on money. We have been asked by several people to explain the difference between the triangle and the picture of a triangle on money. The image on money does not render unto us any service.
We would not consider lifting the image from the money and making a placard of it and mounting it on the back of our buggies to serve as a form of protection.

I would like to issue a public challenge to all area civic organizations, clubs and businesses to match a $500 contribution that the Western Kentucky Car Club has donated to the Grayson County Ministerial Association’s annual Christmas basket project.
This project provides food to less fortunate families in our community, but also made it possible to assist some with utility bills, rent and gas expenses for medical travel, food and shelter for the homeless as well as other emergencies.
