Officials seize meth, make 3 arrests BY MARK BOEHLER editor@dailycorinthian.com

Narcotics officers seized just over three pounds of methamphetamine with a street value of over $30,000 and three local women have been arrested for drug trafficking. Alcorn County Sheriff Ben Caldwell told the Daily Corinthian the huge bust in Corinth last week is an ongoing wide

scale investigation of the distribution of meth in Alcorn County. “This is part of an ongoing investigation by the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics, Corinth Police Department and Alcorn County Sheriﬀ’s Oﬃce,” said Caldwell. “We anticipate more arrests in the future.” The meth was seized from a safe inside a house at 1520B Madison Street,

he said. Three women remain in the Alcorn County Jail on Monday in lieu of a $100,000 bond set on each suspect, he said. The sheriﬀ said those arrested include 59-year-old Linda Berry of the Madison Street address where the Please see ARRESTS | 2

Fireman accused of embezzlement BY MARK BOEHLER editor@dailycorinthian.com

The secretary-treasurer of a local volunteer fire department has been arrested for embezzlement of fire department funds. Alcorn County Sheriﬀ Ben Caldwell told the Daily Corinthian the suspect was 40-yearold Joshua Hite of Alcorn County Road 449 in Rienzi. Hite turned himself in Friday to the Alcorn County Jail, where he was released on a

$5,000 bond, said the sheriff. The fireman is accused of taking a “substantial amount” of money from the Jacinto Volunteer Fire Department, said Caldwell. As to the amount of money taken, “we can’t say right now,” he said. The arrest follows about a two-week investigation by Bryon Parker, an investigator with the sheriff’s office. It wasn’t clear whether Hite was still an active fireman with Jacinto after his arrest.

Lady steals patrol car, then crashes BY MARK BOEHLER editor@dailycorinthian.com

A 30-year-old Benton County woman faces three felony charges after sheriff’s deputies found her in a shop building near Kossuth, and the suspect then tried to flee the scene in a patrol car. Alcorn County Sheriff Ben Caldwell told the Daily Corinthian the suspect was Kati Bryant. She was being held in the Alcorn County Jail on Monday with no bond set, said the sheriff. In a bizarre turn of events, the handcuffed suspect broke through the back seat cage of the patrol car, gained access to the front seat, and drove off

Storm spotter follows funnel cloud BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

No damage was reported Monday afternoon after a tornado briefly touched down in northern Alcorn County. The strong line of severe thunderstorms moved through the area around 2 p.m. While multiple people spotted a funnel cloud near Magnolia Regional Health Center, it was a

local storm chaser who caught the actual tornado touchdown on film. Aaron Canaday, a Skywarn Advanced Spotter with the National Weather Service, said he saw the “moderate-strength tornado” touchdown near U.S. Highway 72 and county roads 608 and 742 in the Theo area of Alcorn County. “It wasn’t a weak system,”

he said. “Luckily, there were no homes or properties in its path. It could have been a much worst situation otherwise.” Canaday said the tornado was on the ground for about five to six minutes. Jackie Pharr with Alcorn County Emergency Services said he found “no damage” along the path of the storm. Please see TORNADO | 2

Grandfather, grandkid die in Trace accident BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

A Prentiss County grandfather and granddaughter have died after the vehicle they were traveling in went into a rainswollen creek on the Natchez Trace Parkway near Kosciusko. Johnie P. Nichols, 73, and Leah Hope Nichols, 3, both of Booneville, died in the crash which happened Saturday around 12:30 p.m. on the parkway. Parkway oﬃcials report Johnnie P. Nichols was driving a 2010 Ford F150 southbound on Trace when the vehicle crossed the center line and struck a bridge abutment. The truck then went down an embank-

ment and landed upside down in a creek where it was almost completely submerged due to the large amount of water in the creek from recent heavy rains. Johnnie P. Nichols and Leah Hope Nichols were unable to escape from the overturned vehicle. Two other passengers in the vehicle, Allen Nichols and Kayla Nichols, escaped from the crash. They are the parents of Leah Hope Nichols and the son and daughter-in-law of Johnnie P. Nichols. Funeral arrangements for the grandfather and granddaughter were incomplete Monday with Kesler Funeral Home in Baldwyn.

As a deputy clerk of 13 years at the Alcorn County Circuit Clerk’s Office, Crystal Starling of Kossuth enjoys having a job with variety. “In one day, I can issue a marriage license, I can be an asset to the civil and criminal department, and I can help with the election process. I love elections. My favorite thing is when a couple who has been married for 50 years comes in from six hours away to look at the original marriage license, and I get to give them a certified copy.” She and her husband of 16 years, Brad, have three daughters who are active in athletics — Madison, 15; Macie, 10; and Marlee, 7. “I’m either here at the courthouse or I’m at a softball field,” said Starling. “I’m very blessed with my job and family.” Staff photo by Jebb Johnston

seizure took place, along with 38-year-old Stephanie Dyson and 32-yearold Linda McAfee, both of Alcorn County Road 629. They have been charged with aggravated traﬃcking of a controlled substance - methamphetamine, said Caldwell. “This investigation has been ongoing for several months about possible meth located in several homes throughout Alcorn

County,” said the sheriff. Assisting the state and local officers with the drug bust was the Tishomingo County K-9 Unit. Caldwell praised the efforts of Alcorn County Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Investigator Adam Rencher for the arrests and seizure, along with other sheriff’s deputies, Corinth police and state narcotics agents. As to the amount of meth now off the street, “that’s a lot of meth,” said the sheriff.

Columbus Man killed in shootout after fleeing officers COLUMBUS (AP) — A man was shot to death after fleeing during a traffic stop and leading officers on a high-speed chase that ended in gunfire in eastern Mississippi. State Department of Public Safety spokesman Warren Strain says a Lowndes County deputy sheriff was shot in the leg, but the wounds are not considered life-threatening. Strain says the chase started Monday morning near Mathiston and ended when the fleeing vehicle was disabled about 40 miles to the east, near Columbus. He says Mississippi Highway Patrol officers joined sheriff’s depart-

TORNADO CONTINUED FROM 1A

Part of the Mississippi Storm Chasers team, 19-old-year Canaday is also a Farmington volunteer firefighter and was the first to report the touchdown to Alcorn E-911. Canaday’s data was backed up by information received from former Corinthian and Austin, Texas-based meteorologist Troy Kimmel. “The tornado near Theo was clearly defined,” he told the Daily Corinthian via email. “(According to radar images), the mesocyclone (tornado) was about 4,800 feet above the ground.” Kimmel said the same system moved eastnortheast along the Tennessee state line and into McNairy County. According to Canaday, the funnel cloud spotted near MRHC never touched the ground. “It was only a low hang-

ing, non-rotating cloud,” said the storm spotter. The National Weather Service issued a Tornado Warning for Alcorn County about 30 minutes before the system reached the area. In addition to the tornado, the system brought with it heavy rains and winds. No hail was reported within the city limits. The surrounding area also saw some severe weather. Prentiss County oﬃcials reported heavy rain and small hail, while Tishomingo County saw less than one inch of hail. Tippah County oﬃcials also said they received strong winds and rain. Although heavy rain and wind was seen in McNairy County, no damage was reported. A chance of showers remain in the Corinth forecast through Friday with some strong thunderstorms possible on Thursday.

Bryant OKs banning of sanctuary cities JACKSON — Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant has signed a law banning sanctuary cities and other policies that might help people who have entered the country illegally. Bryant is a longtime critic of illegal entry by immigrants. He cited President Donald Trump’s executive order banning sanctuary cities when he signed the law Monday. Since Trump’s order, some states added protections for immigrants, while others moved to limit such communities.

WE CLEAN CARPET!

The Mississippi bill says cities, state agencies and public colleges in Mississippi can’t prevent employees from asking about someone’s immigration status. These public agencies also can’t give aid to people who entered the country without permission, such as by issuing an identification card. Immigrant advocates and some religious groups argued against the measure.

a permit from the Alcohol Beverage Control. The proposed update to the city’s alcohol laws was prompted after receiving complaints that four nail salons give away alcoholic drinks to customers, Code Enforcement Officer Johnny Sossoman told The Oxford Eagle. According to the proposed change, allowing businesses to serve alcohol, even free, is in conflict with Mississippi state law. If the board approves the ordinance, businesses would still be able to provide alcohol if using a licensed caterer or if they apply for a brown-bag permit. Patterson said the aldermen will discuss the proposed ordinance Tuesday during a work session. The second reading of the proposal and a public hearing will be held at 5 p.m. April 4 at City Hall.

sippi after fleeing and leading officers on a high-speed chase that ended in gunfire, authorities said Monday. A deputy sheriff was shot in the leg, but the wound isn’t life-threatening, said spokesman Warren Strain of the state Department of Public Safety. The chase began Monday morning near the small town of Mathiston and ended when the fleeing sport utility vehicle was disabled some 40 miles away near Columbus in the eastern part of the state, Strain said. Mississippi Highway Patrol officers joined sheriff’s department officers from three counties in the pursuit, and officers threw spiked sticks in the road to flatten the tires of the fleeing SUV, he said. It was unclear who killed the fleeing man, Pryor Spencer Bailey IV, 45, of Starkville, Mississippi. An autopsy will be done. The name of the wounded Lowndes County deputy wasn’t immediately released.

Man wanted in killing arrested in Oregon PORTLAND, Ore. — A

Mississippi man wanted in the strangulation death of his roommate has been arrested in Portland, Oregon. U.S. Marshals and Portland police took 40-year-old Thomas Elliott Stafford into custody near downtown. He was booked into jail shortly before noon Saturday and is awaiting extradition. Investigators in Jackson County, Mississippi, believe Stafford killed 65-year-old Jerry Floyd Kirkendall sometime around March 3, when a landlord last saw Kirkendall. Alerted by the smell, the landlord found Kirkendall’s body in an unplugged freezer on March 20. Sheriff Mike Ezell said Stafford also stole the victim’s Cadillac. Investigators found the Cadillac at the home of Stafford’s cousin in Alabama. The sheriff said the cousin told investigators he gave Stafford money and a gun in exchange for the car. Oregon court records show Stafford was in Portland last year. He pleaded no contest to methamphetamine possession and was sentenced to probation.

side the building and she resisted arrest, said the sheriff. “When officers placed the suspect in the patrol car, she was handcuffed behind her back,” said Caldwell. “While deputies were checking out her vehicle, she broke through the vehicle cage.” The suspect drove through a field, struck another patrol car, then crashed the vehicle into a tree, causing severe damage, said the sheriff. The second unit had minor damage. The suspect was captured a second time from the wrecked vehicle, he said. Caldwell commended the shop building owner and sheriff’s deputies Tim Boggs and James Bradley for their efforts in capturing the suspect and doing so without anyone getting hurt.

Today in History Today is Tuesday, March 28, the 87th day of 2017. There are 278 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On March 28, 1942, during World War II, British naval forces staged a successful raid on the Nazi-occupied French port of St. Nazaire in Operation Chariot, destroying the only dry dock on the Atlantic coast capable of repairing the German battleship Tirpitz.

On this date: In 1834, the U.S. Senate voted to censure President Andrew Jackson for the removal of federal deposits from the Bank of the United States. In 1896, the opera “Andrea Chenier,” by Umberto Giordano, premiered in Milan, Italy. In 1898, the Supreme Court, in United States v. Wong Kim Ark, ruled that a child born in the United States to Chinese immigrants was a U.S. citizen. In 1930, the names of the Turkish cities of Constantinople and Angora were changed to Istanbul and Ankara. In 1935, the notorious Nazi propaganda film “Triumph des Willens” (Triumph of the Will), directed by Leni Riefenstahl, premiered in Berlin with Adolf Hitler present. In 1941, novelist and critic Virginia Woolf, 59, drowned herself near her home in Lewes, East Sussex, England. In 1955, John Marshall Harlan II was sworn in as an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. In 1969, the 34th president of the United States, Dwight D. Eisenhower, died in Washington, D.C. at age 78. In 1979, America’s worst commercial nuclear accident occurred with a partial meltdown inside the Unit 2 reactor at the Three Mile Island plant near Middletown, Pennsylvania. In 1987, Maria von Trapp, whose life story inspired the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “The Sound of Music,” died in Morrisville, Vermont, at age 82.

Corinth, Miss.

Governor continues Trump support JACKSON — Mississippi’s governor, after serving as a campaign surrogate for Donald Trump, continues to provide high profile support for the new president. Republican Phil Bryant is Jeff Amy voicing support for plans to overhaul federal health care Columnist funding and to restrict immigration, and has touted his connections to the new leadership. Last week, for example, Bryant recounted his most recent visit to the White House to radio host Paul Gallo, saying he met with Chief of Staff Reince Preibus, Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney and Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price. “It was a rare opportunity for the governor of Mississippi to be able to talk one-on-one with the president of the United States,” Bryant said, saying it was the first time he’d been in the Oval Office since George W. Bush was president. Though some Republican governors have voiced concerns over possible changes to Medicaid and other funding, Bryant said he felt vindicated in his strong opposition to expanding Medicaid to cover more Mississippians. “Those of us that are in the non-expansion states, the 19 states that realized that this day was going to come,” Bryant said. “If you expanded Medicaid, you were going to have to assume that at some point the federal funding portion.” Bryant initially voiced concerns — in line with some of Congress’ most conservative members — that the bill didn’t go far enough to repeal benefits. But after saying Republican voters didn’t want “Obamacare Lite,” he swung behind the measure, saying he looked forward to a system of Medicaid block grants and state flexibility that could allow Mississippi to constrain health care spending. For example, Bryant said he wants to impose work requirements or copays on Medicaid recipients. “We want you to have some little individual responsibility for your health care,” he said. “We think that’s the only program that’s ever been successful.” It’s not just on health care that Bryant has been a strong defender of Trump. He also appeared on Fox News on March 6 to back Trump’s plan to restrict immigration and actions by state lawmakers to make it easier to root out people in the country illegally. Bryant focused on what he saw as the harms of illegal immigration earlier in his career, and said during the March 6 interview that he wants to comb state and local jails for people without legal status. “If they have committed those crimes, we want them to pay their responsibility, their duty to serve their sentence in the state of Mississippi and have them deported,” Bryant said. Bryant’s Facebook page has also been peppered with pictures of him meeting Cabinet secretaries including Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and Energy Secretary Rick Perry. He’s been active in signing letters with Republicans from other states asking new Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt to scrap plans to collect methaneemission data from the oil and gas industry and to do more to share environmental regulatory authority with the states. It remains unclear, though, what Bryant will do if the Trump administration pushes proposals that would hurt Mississippi, and whether he will have the influence to stop them. For example, Trump’s budget proposes scrapping plans to build another ship for the U.S. Coast Guard at Ingalls Shipbuilding in Pascagoula. At a christening for a Coast Guard cutter earlier this month, Bryant said it was too early to speculate about what would happen, and tried to put the responsibility for the proposal on Mulvaney and not Trump.

Prayer for today Gracious Father, help me to respond cheerfully when called upon to give. May I never repent of tenderness which others fail to appreciate, but may I be glad of all that I give and for all I receive. Amen.

A verse to share Remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins. —James 5:20

Indigent care not going away STARKVILLE — Perhaps the most frustrating fallout from the ongoing national struggle over “repealing and replacing” the Aﬀordable Care Act has been the suggestion that any outcome is going to somehow relieve taxpayers of the responsibility for funding indigent and/or uncompensated health care. Wrong. So much of the bile being spewed on social media is couched in the language of “us” or “them” and cheers the notion that there is an outcome on Capitol Hill that makes the issue of health care for the poor and those who can’t take care of themselves magically go away. There is no such outcome. Much in the vein of the Biblical admonition that “the poor will always be with us,” it’s equally certain that the provision of health care for the poor, the elderly, the disabled and children will continue and that in some form, taxpayers will pick up most of the tab. The questions in the current health care reform debate are more accurately what taxing authority – local, state, federal, or some combination of all three – will bear what percentages of that burden. Even more to the point, how will these proposed

changes impact the availability and accessibility of health care in rural Sid Salter and/or underserved Columnist areas? For Mississippians, that’s a key question. Some 39 Mississippi government-owned community hospitals that serve – in whole or in part – rural areas of Mississippi – are in particularly peril should the federal government undertake even more wholesale changes in the nation’s approach to funding health care than were made under so-called “Obamacare.” There’s a fascinating paper on the topic available at www.stateofyourhospital. com that focuses on Mississippi’s government-owned hospitals authored by a group of healthcare executives and attorneys, one of whom is Andy Taggart, the former Madison County supervisor and former chief of staﬀ to the late Gov. Kirk Fordice. The paper focuses on challenges to maintaining accessible health care facilities in local communities – something that becomes harder by the day.

I asked Taggart to summarize the findings of his group’s study and he oﬀered this except: “Standalone hospitals in general, and particularly governmentowned hospitals in regional and rural areas with declining populations, are structurally unable to cope with the scale and pace of change the hospital sector is experiencing. Unless fundamentally reorganized from the ground-up and combined with a larger sustainable delivery system, we believe that the vast majority of these hospitals and their associated healthcare services will ultimately become financially unsustainable and unable to meet an acceptable standard of care...government-owned hospital boards and counties that respond quickly to these rapidly changing market forces will experience the best outcome for the residents of their communities.” The white paper looks at local availability of quality health care, eﬃciencies to deliver higher quality care at lower costs, to maintain jobs from existing health care facilities, to protect prior taxpayer investment in local hospitals, and to transition from direct taxpayer support to a more self-sustaining health care delivery

model. So, what happens if the national health care reforms being contemplated make it impossible for hospitals like, for instance, SharkeyIssaquena Community Hospital or Claiborne County Hospital to remain financially viable? What about the health care needs of the people in those areas? Many of the 39 government-owned community hospitals in Mississippi were funded through the federal Hill-Burton Act, which originally gave hospitals built with federal dollars a 20-year post-construction mandate to provide free or subsidized care to a portion of their indigent patients. In 1975, Congress enacted an amendment to the HillBurton Program, Title XVI of the Public Health Service Act. Facilities assisted under Title XVI were required to provide uncompensated services in perpetuity. Public health care reform is advanced civics and involves heavy lifting on the part of Congress, the White House, and state and local governments all working in concert.

Republican rage serves Democrats In a week chock-full of news, the party that on the night of Nov. 8 found itself, much to its surprise, very much out of power has been having diﬃculty finding a way to return. Democratic senators, urged on by the left blogosphere and party activists, peppered Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch with hostile questions, but to no apparent eﬀect. They have failed to raise fears that Gorsuch would vote to repeal the 44-year-old Roe v. Wade, and their argument that he is a shill for big corporations is an obvious dud. But “the base” -- or “the resistance,” as it calls itself, as if it were opposing Hitler -- is demanding all-out opposition, including a filibuster. In which case Republicans will eliminate the filibuster for Supreme Court nominees as Harry Reid and Democrats did in 2013 for lower-court and executivebranch nominees. Republicans won’t hold their Senate majority forever, but they aren’t likely to lose it in 2018, when Democrats will defend 10 seats in states carried by Donald Trump and Republicans will defend only one in a Hill-

ary Clinton state. Democrats did gain -- or retain -- a talking point in Michael the Monday Barone House Intelligence hearColumnist ings when FBI Director James Comey said that there’s an ongoing investigation of Russian ties with persons involved in the Trump campaign. But none of them is in government now, and so far the Trump administration has done nothing to coddle Vladimir Putin. Moreover, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes revealed that there was “incidental” intelligence surveillance of Trump associates and that their names may have been disseminated. And Comey said that the dissemination of this classified information is a felony punishable by up to 10 years in federal prison. A third issue, still pending as this is written, is whether House Republicans will pass the health care legislation, advertised as the first of three steps in repealing

and replacing Obamacare, patched together by Speaker Paul Ryan and supported by President Donald Trump. Party leaderships usually win votes like this, though sometimes it takes a threehour roll call to squeeze out the last votes, as on the 2003 Medicare prescription-drug bill. When House leaderships have failed to win such votes, as Democrats did in August 1994 and Republicans in September 2006, debacle at the polls in unanticipated proportions has followed in November, as Ryan and Trump have presumably been reminding wavering members. Democrats are basically bystanders on this vote. Like the Republicans on Obamacare in 2009-10, their advice and support have not been sought. They note that some recent polling shows, for the first time, majority approval for Obamacare, and hope that dissatisfaction with what the Republicans pass -- or fail to pass -- will work to their benefit. Maybe so. But it’s also possible that Democrats have missed a chance to expand rather than contract government-supported medi-

cine, as Democratic (but pro-Trump on immigration) blogger Mickey Kaus argues, in calling for lowering Medicare eligibility to age 55. Last-ditch opposition to Gorsuch, re-litigation of the Russian collusion charges aired already last fall and refusal of any engagement on health care -- these are all positions demanded by a furious Democratic base, but which may harm rather than help the long-term interest of the Democratic Party. Even those with no sympathy for the Democratic base should be able to understand the causes for their rage. They believed, with some reason, that the Democratic Party had an advantage in presidential elections. In retrospect, the belief in a Democratic lock on the presidency ill served the Democratic Party. And the rage triggered when that belief was shattered may not be serving it very well, either.

Office to bring business ideas to government BY CATHERINE LUCEY Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump is establishing a new White House oﬃce run by his son-in-law that will seek to overhaul government functions using ideas from the business sector. Trump announced the White House Oﬃce of American Innovation in a memo Monday. “The

oﬃce will focus on implementing policies and scaling proven private-sector models to spur job creation and innovation,” he wrote. The innovation oﬃce will be led by Jared Kushner, a senior adviser to Trump and daughter Ivanka Trump’s husband, and will report directly to the president. White House spokesman Sean Spicer said early priorities

for the oﬃce will be modernizing technology in the federal government and overhauling the Department of Veterans Affairs. In the memo, Trump said the oﬃce will make recommendations to the president “on policies and plans that improve government operations and services, improve the quality of life for Americans now and in the

future, and spur job creation.” Among those working on the eﬀort are National Economic Council director Gary Cohn; Dina Powell, senior counselor to the president for economic initiatives and deputy national security adviser; Chris Liddell, assistant to the president for strategic initiatives; and Reed Cordish, assistant to the president for intragovernmental and

technology initiatives. All have extensive business experience. Trump is announcing the new oﬃce at a low point in his young administration, days after the Republican bill to repeal and replace the Aﬀordable Care Act, also known as “Obamacare,” imploded in the House, revealing deep divides within the GOP and fraying tensions at the White House.

GOP finger-pointing running rampant BY HOPE YEN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump is hoping to drive his priorities forward following the crumbling of the Republican health care bill but GOP finger-pointing is rampant, underscoring how tough it will be to produce the unity the party will need. Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas, criticized the contrarian House Freedom Caucus on Monday, a day after resigning from the hard-right group because it helped sink the Republican health care eﬀort. “You can have your principles and then when it comes to voting, you have to compromise to get something passed,” Poe said of the caucus, which has roughly three dozen members. “It will continue to be the opposition party in the party,” said Poe, who said he would have supported the measure. “We cannot be eﬀective if we continue to vote no.” One Freedom Caucus member, Rep. Dave Brat, R-Va., said Trump

“You can have your principles and then when it comes to voting, you have to compromise to get something passed.” Rep. Ted Poe R-Texas got bad advice “from some in leadership who said that some of us should not even exist up here. We need to be on a team and get a good product.” Brat said that could be done “in short order.” On the other side of the GOP spectrum, moderate Rep. Charlie Dent, R-Pa., corroborated a New York Times report that Trump told him he was destroying the party by opposing the Republican bill. “Well, it’s just another day at the oﬃce for me, I guess,” Dent said.

Dent said the party’s most conservative wing was never going to back the bill and that making concessions to them “alienated moderates.” The failed GOP bill, which party leaders withdrew shortly before a House vote that was doomed to failure, would have repealed much of former President Barack Obama’s health care law. It would have voided its tax penalties on people for not buying insurance, tax increases on high earners and health industry firms, and expansion of Medicaid for low-income people. It would have also blocked federal payments to Planned Parenthood. Trump initially focused blame for the measure’s failure on Democrats and predicted a dire future for the current law. On Sunday, Trump turned his criticism toward conservative lawmakers for the failure of the Republican bill, complaining on Twitter: “Democrats are smiling in D.C. that the Freedom Caucus, with the help of Club For Growth and Heritage, have saved Planned Parenthood & Ocare!”

Disagree or Hate?

The culture in which we live has many diverse people who believe many diverse things. Some people see nothing at all wrong with an individual choosing to participate in homosexual activity. These people believe it is a choice to be made by the individual and that everyone else should respect that individual’s choice. Those who make the choice to participate in homosexual activity are sometimes treated cruelly and even beaten and battered by other individuals. This violence evidently is perpetrated by individuals who disagree with the sexual conduct in which their victims have chosen to participate. Sometimes this type of violence is referred to as a hate-crime. It is against the law to inflict violence such as beating and battering on another individual. It is right and good. and most of us are happy such laws are in place to protect the citizens of our communities. These laws should protect individuals who have chosen to participate in homosexual activity in the same way they protect other citizens. However, there seems to be another issue developing in our culture . There seems to be those in our culture who think that speaking out against, admonishing against, and disagreeing with participation in homosexual activity should be labeled a hatecrime. I disagree with homosexual activity and admonish people against doing it, but I do so because of what the Bible teaches, not because of my personal feelings on the matter. There are those who say we should be tolerant and accept persons who openly participate in homosexual activity into our Christian fellowship. I disagree on the basis of what the Bible teaches (I Corinthians 6:9-11 ). This does not mean that I hate people who patticipate in homosexual activity; I simply disagree with their lifestyle on the basis of Scripture. For someone to suggest that my speaking out against the homosexual lifestyle by disagreeing with it is a hatecrime is hateful to me. The apostle Paul and Barnabas worked together on the first missionary journey. They labored together and established many congregations in this effort. Nevertheless, when it came time to begin the second missionary journey, Paul and Barnabas had a disagreement, and the Bible says, “The disagreement became so sharp they parted company” (Acts 15 :39). They did not work together on the second missionary journey; Paul took Silas, and Barnabas took John called Mark. and they worked separately. They simply disagreed sharply on whether to take Mark to work on the journey. Homosexual activity is a sin, just like fornication is a sin (Hebrews13:4). 1 do not hate individuals who choose to engage in illicit heterosexual activity. I do, however, disagree with their decision to participate in such activity because of what the Bible teaches. I do not hate people who choose to participate in homosexual activity, but 1 do sharply disagree with their decision to do so because of what the Bible teaches. furthermore, I encourage them to repent of this activity, and I warn them of the eternal consequences of not doing so.

Today

Full of confidence Economists predict that a gauge of U.S. consumers’ confidence in the economy remains strong. They expect that the Conference Board will report today that its index of consumer confidence edged lower this month to 114 from 114.8 last month. February’s reading was the highest in more than 15 years. The index measures both consumers’ assessment of current conditions and their expectations for the future.

The cconcern, certainly in households, is that inflation hou h seh will w ill push pu higher and more than offset any increase in th wages, meaning lower w ag living livin standards. The T prevailing view in markets is that the pound mar may may fall further in coming months month as Britain tries to strike a new trade deal with the EU within two years. That push inflation up That could co further a and pile more pressure on consumers. consu The British economy does face some choppy days ahead.

Britain’s vote to leave the e European Union last June had one substantive antive market cent fall in the impact – a sharp 20 percent value of the pound. And that is making life e more expensive for the British.. Consumer price inflation tion in n Britain spiked to 2.3 percent cent in the year to February from rom m 1.8 percent the previouss month, according to official cial statistics. In June, inflation on was only 0.5 percent. Analysts say the pound’s nd’ss fall is largely behind that at spike as it raises the cost of imported food and energy.

Healthy demand for homes and a shrinking supply of available properties has helped keep home prices rising. The Standard & Poor’s CoreLogic Case-Shiller home price index, which tracks the value of homes in 20 major U.S. metropolitan areas, rose 5.6 percent in December from a year earlier. Economists expect that January’s reading, which is due out today, will show another 5.6 percent gain in home prices versus the same month in 2016.

The Commerce Department reports today its latest monthly tally of inventories held by wholesale businesses.
