To the editor,

Equal Justice. Now our past judge is being sentenced for his crime. The State tried to increase his sentence, but they failed. Everyone else gets five years alone for having a gun in the room. We are sure he had one in the room or on himself.

The bench trail victims he served on should of gotten a new trial with a new judge and prosecutor that are neutral and a public defender who was licensed, which Asotin County was not. The appeals should be sent back to Asotin County for retrial. The two prosecutors should be replaced without side prosecutors and defenders.

We need proper justice in our court.

To the editor,

Have you noted, like I have, that when evil cracks a door it is never satisfied until it forces that door to its limits.

Let’s look, look at abortion on demand. It started out in 1973 that an abortion could only take place in the 1st trimester, and then it went to partial birth abortion, then to the selling of baby body parts, and now has reach infanticide.

After 62 million babies have been aborted in a little less than 50 years, the Supreme Court reversed Roe vs Wade and returned the decision to each State.

I am not fooling myself into believing my State under the leadership of Inslee, Murray, and Cantwell, will become prolife, but I believe my vote counts, and it will go towards a candidate who shares my values. The door has been cracked on the national level regarding the following areas: Equality Act, Draft Our Daughters, Defund Police, Critical Race Theory, WOKE

If there are individuals in our community who could share more knowledge on these subjects, please write a letter to the Editor of the East Washingtonian and inform us.

A quote from a mailing I received, spoke to me, and I hope by passing it on will do you as well.

Lauren Boebert (Co.3) “We’ve got to fight a culture war at home and in churches. We must train our children with a solid foundation that freedom and liberty are priceless, and that God is good, and that the American promise is alive and well.!”

We are not only in a culture war; we are in a spiritual one as well.

To the editor,

I would like to express my appreciation for Chuck Amerein as our current and hopefully re-elected County Commissioner. Chuck has unselfishly represented the citizens of Dayton and works tirelessly to do so. I have witnessed on numerous occasions Chuck going above and beyond his position and helping others in need and even just because.

I’ve also seen a few nasty, hateful comments about him that don’t reflect Chuck at all. You can’t please everyone, and Chuck is pleasantly aware of this. With the very few nasty things said about him, his character and track record reflect different.

I for one am very appreciative of his patriotism and standing up for what he believes in. Time and time again he has shown that he is not afraid to challenge and question concerns in order to make the best decision on behalf of the County. I think this reflects a great leader as he is also constantly striving to learn and improve himself by meeting, seeking advice and learning from other commissioners outside of our county.

The number of hours, time and volunteering that Chuck has put in as our current Commissioner should show you how dedicated he is to his position and I would like to ask the Citizens of Dayton to Re-Elect Chuck Amerein.
