Gun rights
Concerning the recent murder of black men and policemen and all the chatter that comes with it:
Why don’t we just furnish each newborn child with an assault rifle and a couple of 30-round clips at birth from now on, to make sure in the future everyone has adequate protection? Then the debate over gun rights would be moot, and when someone got ticked off, they could just take matters into their own hands. We wouldn’t even need police.
Doesn’t that make sense, Mississippians?
Then we could all be “truly dumb rednecks.”

Regarding the article “Former Itta Bena city clerk sentenced” (July 8):
Hold your head up, LaCheronda Spivery. How can we take the speck out of somebody else’s eye when we have it in our own? We are so quick to talk about the wrong in someone else’s life when some of the things in our own life are not right.
I'm praying for you.
If God is for you, he is more than the world against you.

Pet mistreatment
Are pet owners wise who allow their BFF (best friend forever) to travel in a truck bed or walk/jog in 90-degree heat?
Would those same persons allow their child who is the same size to participate in these activities? This is much debated.
This friend is excited to be included, trusts that it will face no danger and gives its best. Finally, home, a pat and a drink of water. It lives.
Will it on the next such ride/walk?

Killer robot
Regarding the editorial, “Better killer robot than dead lawmen” (July 10):
As a citizen of Dallas, we applaud our police chief's decision in the way the standoff was ended.
