Sunday Letters<\/a>.<\/p>\nIn this letter, Duble asked, \u201cMust we kill occupants in a boat in international waters during peace time who do not pose a threat?\u201d <\/p>\n
Do not these drug runners pose a threat to hundreds of thousands of our youth and citizens? How many thousands have already died from overdosing on fentanyl?<\/p>\n

Rights for kids with disabilities <\/p>\n
Until Nov. 29, 1975, American children with disabilities had no right to a public education in the United States. While schools in some states voluntarily served children with selected disabilities, no national policy guaranteed to these children what nondisabled children were typically provided in their states.<\/p>\n
On that day, President Gerald Ford signed into law the Education for All Handicapped Children Act. At that time, it was estimated that 7 million children would gain entrance to the nation\u2019s public schools.<\/p>\n
Fifty years have passed, and millions of children have benefited from access to public schools. Their families, employers and society benefited as well, as formerly isolated people gained participation in the daily rhythms of life.<\/p>\n

Court-martial <\/p>\n
Disobeying unlawful orders in the U.S. military is covered in both the Oath of Enlistment and Article 92 of the UCMJ. If a military person obeys an unlawful order, that person is subject to a court-martial also; if he or she disobeys a lawful order they are also subject to a court-martial.<\/p>\n
If someone reminds them of such action, that person is not subject to a death sentence just because a president of the U.S. wishes it to happen. If said president is going in that direction, then Congress or the vice president and Cabinet need to enact the 25th Amendment to rid the U.S. of this president. I do believe our democracy is in grave danger if they do not.<\/p>\n

Hung out to dry <\/p>\n
It seems as if President Donald Trump is after a true military hero because he criticized his potentially illegal operations. Instead of hanging Sen. Mark Kelly out to dry, maybe it is time to add another impeachment to Trump\u2019s r\u00e9sum\u00e9. It is only a matter of time until Congress sees fit to do this.<\/p>\n
