It is a disgrace that this outstanding Wichita family of Sattar Ali suffered humiliation as a result of a knee-jerk reaction to a problem that could have been remedied with a little more research by bank tellers and officials.


I appreciated Rick Plumlee’s thoughts published in last Sunday’s Eagle in advance of Ken Burns’ Vietnam War series. I hope he shares his response after he watches the shows. His insights are good.


Elizabeth Warren wants to impose stiff penalties on firms and management of those firms when data on customers is hacked. I hope she proposes the same penalties for government agencies that allow our information to be hacked.

It really angers me that a business would collect sales tax and then not pay it to Kansas. They deserve to lose everything and should go to prison.
