Letters to the Editor:

I say to hell with prohibition! If we would like to drink ourselves to death then we should be provided the freedom to do so. This is failed attempt of trying to better our health. I go down to a blind pig every weekend and still see me drinking, so what is the point of have this foolish prohibition when we are still drinking liquor, with no consequences?

This devilish group that claims to be religious is back, and not just for us blacks this time, as soon as I started to think things were getting better for us. It’s worse for those of us that live in the south, Atlanta specifically. Now my people have to fear walking in the streets alone, now more than since this unconstitutional group is receiving the most support its group has ever had before. More people joining the klan. It’s crazy to think that 4 billion are so focused on attacking a set of races

Modern women (traditionalist POV)

These women you call “modern” are nothing but classless dancing pigs, they have morals so loose that they are close to nothing. These women don’t have what you guys call more confidence, they have lower standards for themselves. These women just sleep with men as if it’s a casual event. They wear inappropriate pieces of clothing that show too much skin, and dark excessive makeup that makes them look like cheap prostitutes. How are these women supposed to lead their children, how we are supposed to allow these sleazy women to marry our sons? They are ruining our family values with their “modern” ways
