Letter to the city team members:

I hope this year brings resolution on many issues. I hope that businesses will be able to re-open to full capacity and I hope that people can find some normalcy in their lives. There are so many opinions out there that are in controversy.

I’ve got to do what? Why?

An end to the Covid pandemic, the local shooting death epidemic and all the children singing in perfect harmony, judged only by the content of their character. Easy, but we do not have a magic wand here. We do have some special gifts, talents if you will, that can be turned into miracles in 2021 if we want.

You’ve come at last, 2021. Thank you. Earth’s 7.5 billion human inhabitants are glad you’re here.

Excellent article by “Prentiss Smith-- it is not the Chief’s fault people are killing each other”!! As usual, sad commentary from James Green during the recent council meeting. Chief Raymond is doing a great job during a very difficult time in Shreveport. No one should endure such disrespectful treatment from an elected official.
