voices Thank You, Gabber
Dear Editor: I am happy that this newest incarnation of the Gabber is determined to stay true to the journalistic principles of objectivity and fairness. When some readers are offended by opposing views, they demand censorship. They want to see only one “true” viewpoint in their reliable hometown paper. A good newspaper prints opinions from all sides and assumes the readership is intelligent enough to make their own informed decisions. Thank you Gabber staff for eschewing the ugly practice of censorship and trusting us to know right from wrong. — Cathy Howard Dear Editor: Thank you for printing the hilarious letter about how the Gulfport Chief of Police has no obligation to vaccinate himself for the shared health of the people he is supposed to protect and

Corrections In the Gabber’s Gecko Guide last week [August 5, 2021] we stated that the Gecko Pub Crawl after-party would be held at O’Maddy’s. The after-party will be at Salty’s Gulfport. The Gabber apologizes for the error. For more Gecko Pub Crawl coverage, see page 12. The Gulfport City Council article in the July 29 issue [“Council Gets Back to Business,” July 29, 2021] stated that the Marina Dry Storage area would be repaved, but it will be replaced with permeable shells. Also, the living shoreline project will not be walkable, as was previously reported. The Gabber apologizes for the errors.
