Opinion Line (Aug. 17)

Regardless of party, gender, ethnic origin, appearance, past prison record, whatever or wherever, I will cast my vote for the candidate who will guarantee to end robocalls within 30 days of taking office.

Amnesty International is proposing that prostitution be legalized. Where have they been? It already has been. They are called politicians.

Why does the city allow four dogs per household? If people want four dogs they should live in the county. Also, an animal maintenance permit fee is charged in cases of more than two dogs. Is it being collected?

Is Sedgwick County following the Greece model now – no one pays taxes and no one bothers to collect them?
