The current education system was set up 300 years ago, and it fit the country well then, but no longer.

When the Jones Family began the venture of renaming the block of Fourth Street South located between College Street and Main Street known as “Catfish Alley,” 1,500 signatures were gathered in favor of the name change. Support of the name change included tenants on Fourth Street South.

Imagine a system where you go to a government office and jump through the appropriate hoops to get a driver’s license. But you don’t get to keep your license. They keep it for you. Well, they keep a list of people who are approved.

Your comment about the Colorado shooting, (The only thing that would have made a big difference is if one or more patrons would have been allowed, by the theater management, to carry legally concealed handguns into the theater.”) is absurd beyond belief.
Letter to the editor: Country needs to ‘man-up’
In Friday’s Opinion, Other Editors column, someone with the McComb, MS, Enterprise Journal weighed in proposing “middle ground” on the issue of “gun control.” They want a resurgence of the “assault weapons” ban and the high capacity magazine ban as a compromise.
