A Pillar of Community

Vilnis Kubulins is a humble giving individual. His character of generosity and willingness to help others is a result of his upbringing. His dear parents Olgerts and Vera as well as his Grandparents were paramount in his childhood.

He was born in Middleburg Heights, Ohio where he participated in school sports. He continued his education at John Carol University. Where he is employed.

Vote yes on Issue 1

The crux of Issue One is whether women should have the power to make decisions regarding their own mental and physical health. If you are a person who would force a woman to carry a fetus to term against her will, I encourage you to think about that. Abortion will always be with us, legal or not, because women will always assert their right to make decisions for themselves based on their own situations. I find the phrase “unborn children” inaccurate and disingenuous. For the first seven weeks, the bundle of cells is called an embryo; after seven weeks the accurate word is fetus. ...

Don’t let them steal our town; vote

Attention all residents of Marietta, please don’t let them steal our town! My name is Jacob Wynn and I am a longtime resident of this wonderful city. Do you realize we are currently in a battle for the future of our town? Do you realize we are at a tipping point of losing everything that this wonderful city is?

This website was designed in a way to appear like some sort of official agency. ...

It worked well for 50 years; vote yes on Issue 1

The Republican Supreme Court got it all wrong. They did not represent the majority opinion in the United States. “Roe” worked very well for 50 years, but now women and girls must follow the dictates of politicians and the “religious right.” Vote “Yes” on Issue One. We value our religious freedom. When did we decide that our neighbor should be forced to observe “our” religious beliefs? And then our politicians “jumped on the band wagon” and decided they would also interfere with our most private health-care decisions. Vote “Yes” on Issue One. And ...

Vote no on Issue 1

Satan’s followers are extremely busy with their drive to exterminate even more of the most helpless innocents in Ohio. Abortion (slaughter) of unborn babies, with no restrictions, even up until the moment of birth, is their main demand Their sinister plans also want to turn your girls into boys, and your boys into girls. They demand to be allowed to teach their trans...crap and homosexuality in schools, regardless of what parents think. A truly detestable sight is the TV ad all over the networks with the UCC preacher from Columbus, advocating for the passage of the evil bill up ...

Moral imperative and love

The sounds and tremors of approaching train are sensed and heard. The train is approaching switching destination. The Guard swiftly leaves his little cabin in order to switch the rails. Between the rails of destination, he sees his child seated unaware. There is no time run and gab him to safety, he seem be destined to parish. There are two emotion surround his heart like snake, choice between love and moral imperative. Love succumbs to the moral imperative. He cries out as he depresses the switch. “I must send the train on proper path.” “With two trains colliding there many ...
