Letter: Sex trafficking

Tulsa Beacon

My name is Valerie Pfeifer, a Master of Social Work Student at OU-Tulsa, writing you to shed a light on the importance of being educated upon and knowledgeable of human sex trafficking in Tulsa and our state of Oklahoma. This issue is extremely prevalent in our city, as the National Human Trafficking Hotline reported approximately…

Letter: A Biden victory?

Tulsa Beacon

Does it seem reasonable that American citizens would vote in record-breaking numbers for the two candidates (Biden and Harris) who were the least-popular on the campaign trail leading up to the election? Does it seem reasonable that Joe Biden would receive 10.6 million more votes than Barack Obama did in 2008?  And in this age…

Letter: Buy a face shield

Tulsa Beacon

As the CDC has been telling us since last spring, cloth masks work primarily by reducing our risk of infecting others. Since mask mandates tend to get imposed only during surges in the virus, the evidence for face masks is not as strong as we would like but it sure does make sense that cloth…

Letter: Stolen election

Tulsa Beacon

There is no question that the Democratic Party and others, did everything they could to steal the 2020 Presidential Election.  And that it was obviously pre-planned for years. A large group of individuals  and organizations worked hard, and put out large amounts of money to carry out such a disgraceful and un-American travesty against one…

Editorial: Higher taxes are coming in 2021

Tulsa Beacon

If Joe Biden becomes the president, taxes will go through the roof. Personal income taxes will rise. Investments in the Stock Market – including retirement 401Ks – will drop because of higher taxes on corporations. The price of gasoline will skyrocket. Biden wants Janet Yellen as his Secretary of the Treasury. That’s a huge mistake…

Editorial: The coronavirus ravages Europe

Tulsa Beacon

Europe is suffering under the Chinese coronavirus pandemic. France instituted its second lockdown in November. People could go to work, buy essential goods, go to the doctor and exercise (for one hour a day). Anyone who ventured out of doors had to carry a written statement as the to justification of leaving their home. Non-essential…

Editorial: Manipulating science by politics

Tulsa Beacon

Science is being used as an excuse to bully people and cause them to have an inordinate fear of the Chinese coronarvirus. Tulsa Mayor G.T. Bynum won’t admit it publicly but it’s obvious that he wants a full shutdown of Tulsa – and its suburbs – to curb the pandemic. Gov. Kevin Stitt bowed to…

Editorial: Discrimination versus Christians

Tulsa Beacon

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito recently said during a speech before the Federalist Society that “in certain quarters, religious liberty is fast becoming a disfavored right.” Alito cited coronavirus cases in California and Nevada that were blatantly discriminatory yet they were upheld by the Supreme Court with the reasoning that those decisions should be made…

Editorial: Democrats and city shootings

Tulsa Beacon

Shooting are up in major U.S. cities that are under the thumb of a one-party Democrat-run administration. Shootings were already out of control in Chicago but in 2020, they are up 50%. In New York, it’s even worse. Shootings there are up 95% in 2020. Shootings rose from 698 in 2019 to 1,359 by November…

Letter: Our weather is the result of the Sun, not carbon dioxide

Tulsa Beacon

Our weather is the result of the Sun and its activity, the Earth and how they rotate, rotate around each other with the time involved and our immense oceanic system with its extremely complex current system (here we have to add in our Moon). Increases in carbon dioxide has always significantly lagged increases in warming….
