This is Mary, a concerned senior citizen. I’ve been watching the news about the immigration problem. I remember our nation was founded on the laws of God and the Bible. Our forefathers believed in God and they were very patriotic and they loved their country. I have a solution to illegal immigration. All these people over here that don’t love America, that stomp our flag and burn it, yet have all their benefits Americans gave their lives for, I think that we should do a trade. If these people want to come over here to a free country and live and work, the non-workers should be traded over there where they can do nothing. Let them see how it is to live in a country with no freedoms. Thank you.

I don’t believe what’s going on over here at the jail. You go and ask for somebody and they give you 300 places to go. When you want to find out why a person is in jail, they have all kinds of accusations from stealing, to speeding, to having no license. What’s going on here? We need to close all the liquor stores in Santa Rosa County. If I had the power, I’d close every one of them, a dry county, like long before. If you want liquor, go to Pensacola and drink the whole city. Maybe that helps Pensacola. Bye.

I am calling about that 100-year-old, two-story building at Chumuckla Elementary. The rest of the school is great. My kids and my cousins’ kids loved it. The class size is small and the teachers are really good. Almost all the rooms are nice, but that one building needs to be shut down. It’s got rickety fire escape stairs and old tilted stairs on the inside and a lot of reports of sick people from the age of the place. Come on, Santa Rosa. Do we really need to have kids in a place like that? There are only a few rooms in there. Can’t you close it up? Thanks.
