Speed bump on Halsey Street: As a longtime resident of Southampton Village, I have complained for years to the trustees about the workforce traffic in the village. I live on Pelham Street, and I get a lot of traffic every day — they speed, they have loud exhaust and cause pollution. Some cars sound as loud as the leaf blowers.
I think that speed bumps should be put on Pelham Street and Moses Lane heading to Hill Street and County Road 39. That will at least slow down these cars that race down these streets.

I agree with Rosalyn Jennings [“No Lecture,” Letters, October 17], and her friends, that Kamala Harris can come off sometimes as “lecturing” and that she can sometimes falter under the fairly weighty subjects she is addressing. She is educated, rational...
“Ban Religious Tyranny” [Letters, October 17] was a poor choice of The Press opinion staff for the headline on the Klausners’ letter last week decrying their anger over a despicable anonymous letter they received from a severely misguided individual who...
