LETTER: How much do funerals cost?

Rip them out or plant them?

Costs are out of control.

But local, state officials chose obstruction.

Not so fast.

Judges, prosecutors need backbones.

How can afford massive new defense outlays when the nation is so far in debt?

And the costs go up.

Modern warfare and traditional tools of the trade.

Let the cops rank those on the bench.

Get rid of incumbents.
