Panico Owes Bellport an Apology

Dear Editor,

I read your story regarding Supervisor Panico Vs. the Village of Bellport, and I make the following observations and conclusions. I do so having served as the first full-time salaried Town Attorney, as a former Deputy Supervisor of the Town of Brookhaven, and as a former resident (thirty years) and former Village Attorney for the Village of Bellport.

After reading your article and Mr. Panico’s press release (2-21-24), it appears to me that his main objective is to provoke racial dissension where none exists. An example of actual racial harmony is the Boys and Girls Club of the Bellport Area, whose member-students are treated annually to a day at Ho-Hum Beach by and at the expense of Bellport Village. This manufactured controversy is disingenuous AT BEST!

Mr. Panico owes the Village of Bellport an apology.

Hon. Marty Kerins

Overdose Training for Senior Citizens

Dear Editor,

In a recent edition you published an article on New Horizons Counseling having a session on Narcan training and giving Narcan kits to take home.

The article specifically refers to senior citizens overdosing on their medications.

I am a senior citizen of 80+ years old with various conditions affecting my health and mobility. I would like to suggest the Counseling Service come to the Senior Citizen Center to give a presentation.

Overdose Training for Senior Citizens

Dear Editor,

Maybe the cookies that had Trump on them were for an occasion.

I assume that she’s a Liberal who doesn’t mind paying for illegals, many of whom abuse women and children. Also, we’re paying for their sex change surgery. We want our daughters to be safe when they go into the LADIES ROOM. And our sons to be allowed to be BOYS and not be convinced they can be girls.

What about the trillions sent to other countries to secure THEIR borders, while ours remain wide open?

Our country is in serious trouble right now. The Pope suggests we pick the ‘Lesser of two evils’. Let’s do that.
