Response
to request for video removal
7-12-01
To
the editor:
I
am writing in response to Mr. Bova’s request to the city council
regarding the removal of what he deems explicit material in video
stores.
I
have seen these videos he objects to on the video store shelves,
and I must admit that I have seen worse scenes on our public
streets.
While
I personally do not rent these types of videos, I understand that
some adults do. I also feel that is their right under the
constitution to do so, as it is a form of expression.
Removing
these videos would be a violation of free speech and freedom of
expression.
While
I appreciate seeing a concerned citizen address the council, I
feel there are much more important issues our city government
needs to address at this time.

To
the editor:
I
stopped by and visited the new store on Fifth Street named
"Country Pantry." It is owned by some very nice people
named Henderson.
I
was very impressed. It is very clean and orderly. It also had some
very nice products.
I
hope Lincoln will support this new business venture.

know that on Armed Forces Radio there was a news spot regarding
the Abe Lincoln statue. Lincoln has made the world news!
