On November 24, 2021, at about 1:45 PM, deputies from the Jurupa Valley Station responded to the 1600 block of Setting Sun Circle, in unincorporated Corona, to investigate a report of an assault with a deadly weapon in progress. The victim, a 32-year-old male, suffered moderate injuries during the attack from the suspect, who was identified as Amy Alhindi, a 42-year-old female resident of the unincorporated area of Corona.

On Thanksgiving Day in 1921, William Martin first opened what would one day be known as the Historic Hemet Theatre.

In the spring following 9/11, the War on Terror had already begun, and I was taking a college course on the Vietnam War. It was a unique course for the time, as most of us didn’t attend the live class, but students were given a choice to purchase the lectures on DVD or, as I did, go to the library and watch them on VHS.

Like many others, you may have decided not to comply with the vaccine mandate, or your employer is bearing down on you, and you have not decided. You're thinking about how you would make a living, care for your family, and how the government could arbitrarily defy your constitutional rights. I know the feeling because I was there...over twenty years ago. Except it wasn't over a vaccine, but over a prayer. It wasn't called being "canceled," but being "blacklisted." Twenty years later, I am still here. Perhaps reading my story will give you encouragement for the road ahead.

I just finished reading Rusty Strait's article (How Long Before Oblivion?) in the November 19th edition of The Chronicle. I have to say that Mr. Strait does keep my blood pressure up! Rusty gave us a brief history lesson on the rise of Hitler's Germany and then linked it with President Trump and his supporters, also addressing the January 6th march at the capital by Trump's supporters.
