Letter: Could this man-made virus be used for some evil scheme?

Tulsa Beacon

The United States has tested over 61 million people for the China virus and as of (August 5), 4.85 million confirmed cases of Covid-19 have been reported.  This indicates that 92% of the people tested do not have the virus; in fact, many of those tested had no symptoms, but they requested a test anyway….

Letter: Lankford and unemployment?

Tulsa Beacon

At a time when unemployment rates are at all-time highs because of the damage done by government-required business shutdowns, Senator James Lankford has proudly co-sponsored S386 giving more H-1B visa workers a faster track to green cards. Hundreds of thousands of U.S. IT workers have been displaced over the last 20-plus  years by cheaper foreign…

Letter: Grow food locally in Oklahoma

Tulsa Beacon

One of the great benefits of living in a rural community is our ability to enjoy food grown locally. Families appreciate easy access to high quality nutrition. Many farms and ranches depend on these local sales. Like so much of our daily life, this system was disrupted by COVID-19. When work is interrupted at industrial…

Letter: Improve racial relationships

Tulsa Beacon

Police brutality affects people living below the poverty line from all different races and creeds. It was disgusting and tragic what happened to George Floyd as well as all the other people in America who have fallen victim to the militarization of local police departments. But we also must realize that the elites in power…

Editorial: Little choice in the mayoral race

Tulsa Beacon

Conservative Christians don’t seem to have a great choice on the ballot for Mayor August 25. That is not to challenge the validity of anyone’s faith but finding a conservative Christian in government is a rare treat in Tulsa these days. Party registration is not reliable. Governments is full of liberal Democrats who have reregistered…

Editorial: Little hope in the council races

Tulsa Beacon

The Tulsa City Council is filled with liberals who lack any courage to stand up to the powerful business interests that dictate their policy decisions. The August 25 election won’t change that. Here are our recommendations for that ballot. District 1 Democrat Jerry Goodwin; Democrat Vanessa Hall-Harper No recommendation. Both are liberal Democrats in a…

Editorial: No to all five city propositions

Tulsa Beacon

No, no, no, no and no. Tulsans will also vote on five propositions on August 25 that deal with political correctness; nonpartisan elections; control of authorities, boards and commissions; and the function of the city attorney. Proposition No. 1 deletes any references to partisan elections because Tulsa’s municipal elections are “nonpartisan.” Proposition No. 2 erases…

Letter: Is it too late for the United States?

Tulsa Beacon

As of July 25, 2020, there were 146,418 deaths in the USA this year due to the China Virus, Covid-19.  During that same period, there were 498,171 deaths in the USA due to abortion. Think about that.  We are willingly and purposely killing our innocent babies at a rate 3 ½ times greater than the…

Letter: Take a look at Donald Trump

Tulsa Beacon

Let’s look at this man for one (expletive) second! A 74-year old man coming back home from work at 2 a.m. while most men his age are retired in their vacation homes. He comes back after a long day that probably started before the sun rose and gets back home exhausted with his tie open…

Editorial: Elect Margie Alfonso Aug. 25th

Tulsa Beacon

Republican Margie Alfonso is the right choice for Oklahoma House District 79. A devout Christian, Alfonso lives by Biblical principles. She believes that government is appointed by God and citizens should abide by the law in order to prevent chaos. She is for the rule of law and against violent protests. Alfonso has faith in…
