    The horrific tornadoes that ripped through Oklahoma this week bring back all too familiar memories for Alabamians as memories of April 27, 2011 are still fresh in many minds. When Alabamians were in need

    In my editorial on Tuesday I chided our legislators for being the last state to pass a no-brainer  bill legalizing home brewing.  Today I want to challenge them to be one of the first states to pass another no-brainer;

    Kudos, or perhaps, cheers to the Alabama Legislature for passing HB9, the home brewing bill. Legalized home brewing may not be up there with education reform or prison funding, but it was overdue.

MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA) -

Our editorials focusing on the situation at ASU sparked a number of responses on wsfa.com and on our station's Facebook page. 

The first comment is from H.L. and he writes, "Let Dr. Silver give the facts as he knows them to the Governor and with that info the Governor can move forward to get to the bottom of the situation. NOTHING is to be swept under the rug…waiting on the results."

Scott responded, "I don't think Knight and his cronies are smart enough to cover it all up … Their hand prints will be found all over this mess. Any decent investigator will find more than enough evidence to prove the fraud and the cover up plot taking place at ASU. The Governor will take care of business. He has now been given an open invitation to dive in and clean house. More power to him!"

Bill added, "Unfortunately a good person can be made to look bad by lies, destroyed documents, falsified documents, etc. I believe the key to the right solution is the Governor. But will the Governor do the right thing, or the politically expedient thing? "

And finally a viewer responded, "When will the "good ole boys" tactic stop.......Dr. Silver was hired to do a job....Let him do it. This means stop controlling … this situation is very similar to the "Board of Education…"

As always, we encourage and appreciate your feedback.
