Letter: ‘Red flags’ and shootings

Tulsa Beacon

Speaking of “red flags,” an 18-year-old comes in to buy an assault weapon and a pistol, and I’m sure he didn’t look like the valedictorian of his class. The clerk could have asked the phone number of his parents or the name of his Sunday School teacher. If he answered suspiciously, hand him a long…

Letter: Sen. Nathan Dahm is the better choice

Tulsa Beacon

Last year we lost 100,00+ Americans to bad drugs coming across our southern border yet our congress spends peanuts on it and gives the Ukraine $40 billion of our tax dollars to protect their border.  Our country has many needs going begging that are totally ignored by our congress.  Kevin Hern is the only Oklahoman…

Letter: God’s Word could fill a library

Tulsa Beacon

(Editor note: While some translations have minor flaws, the original Hebrew and Greek texts are flawless.) The miracle of the Bible, the written Word of God, is not that it is without flaws which every translator will admit.  Trying to defend it on that basis will always fall short. God, who has always existed, is…

Letter: Are we in the last of the last days?

Tulsa Beacon

Most church people will tell you we are living in the last of the last days. Therefore it’s normal to wonder what the future holds. In the 24th chapter of Matthew, Jesus said the last days would be shortened to keep the Elect from being deceived . However , Jesus didn ‘t say how those…

Letter: $1 million for digging more graves?

Tulsa Beacon

(Concerning Mayor G.T. Bynum’s $1 million for grave excavation..) I could see this money being spent if black newspapers at the time of the race riot claimed thousands had died. In reality, we are hard pressed to prove 40 individuals died during the riots. The lie of 3,000 deaths has not a shred of reliable…

Letter: Constitutional anarchy surges 

Tulsa Beacon

The nightly TV news provides ongoing and certain evidence of our inability to live as a free and responsible people. We are confronted with story after story of lawless or reckless behavior with nary a solution ever proposed that has a reasonable chance of successful implementation. The government, conscious that some still believe it plays…

Letter: Constitution is under assault

Tulsa Beacon

Over the past century, it has been liberal fallacy of viewing our Constitution as a “living/breathing document” which permitted such abominations as abortion and homosexuality to be legalized. If a country’s constitution can simply be rewritten at any time against the desires of the voting public, then there is no point in even having such…

Letter: Stitt and O’Conner are great examples for today’s kids

Tulsa Beacon

Attorney General John O’Connor and his relationship with Governor Kevin Stitt is quietly teaching lessons to Oklahoma’s kids. As the state’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Law Enforcement Officer, their decisions don’t always align. And when they don’t, they hold respectful talks, showcasing life-sized examples of proper discourse when opposing views collide. Past generations learned…

Letter: Obscene books in Bixby

Tulsa Beacon

Last year, Janice Danforth, faced opposition when she addressed her concerns about two books, she found in the Bixby public school library. The books, Me and Earl and the Dying Girl and Thirteen Reasons Why contain explicit sexual content. Me and Earl and the Dying Girl contained over 200 uses of the “F” word and…

Letter: Seat belt safety tip

Tulsa Beacon

I want to share a simple but life-saving discovery. It is a seat belt tip. The next time you drive your car, do this. Fasten your seat belt and then take hold of the strap across your chest and pull it forward until it stops and let it go back to its place. Now try…
