Two Cents comments for Oct. 21

The Rapid City Journal - 10/21/2017

The main building at STAR Academy, which has served as a hospital, could be utilized as an Alzheimer's facility and provide western South Dakota with a care center that is sorely needed now and into the future. A majority of the remaining property could be sold as a separate sale.

I give thanks every day that no news-happy fool leaked my son's whereabouts when he wore that green beret, and he and his comrades came home. If we respect our military, let them do their mission.

What is with the TSA? We recently went through security and my 80-year-old husband with dementia and in a wheelchair was padded down like a common criminal - disgusting.

We took Puerto Rico as a prize after the Spanish-American War and then neglected the island abysmally. The resulting poverty and poor infrastructure has complicated the recovery from Hurricane Maria.

Mayor Allender's civic center presentations are nothing more than sales pitches for (his) our new arena option. That's what he wants and we citizens ought to want for the future of our city, and (he) we should stop at nothing until (he) we get it.
