To the editor:
I must have been on a space mission when the poll was conducted to discuss the need for a community special events area.
We obviously need an area in which to conduct public executions. I am sure we could erect pillories and stocks to humiliate minor transgressions. We would obviously have to excavate a dunking pond.
I am sure the current town employees can clear an area of flammable bushes and trees so we can burn witches, heretics and dissident residents of Carolina Shores at the stake.

To the editor:
Several months ago, the idea of using the area adjacent to town hall as a site for our citizens to utilize for special events or as a place of quiet reflection was suggested.
The communication committee, made up of volunteers from within the town of Carolina Shores, was given the task of exploring options for commissioners to consider.
After much discussion, it was agreed that professional help was needed to develop viable options for the town to consider. Concepts for a town commons were presented.

To the editor:
I have learned four things since this “park issue” became just that, an issue.
1. “There are two sides to every story—and then there’s the truth.”—American Proverb
2. “A narrow mind and a wide mouth usually go together.”—Author Unknown
3. “People are very open-minded about new things—as long as they’re exactly like the old ones.”—Charles Kettering

To the editor:
When is the last time you heard of the U.S. government helping to repair a Judeo-Christian place of worship devastated by tornados, floods, etc. in this country? Yet our tax dollars are used worldwide to preserve mosques in order to buy friendship with some who seek to destroy us.
