Gwen Burton Speaks on the city's lawsuit

We know you've heard the old saying...things that make you go hmmm. Here's another one for you. Councilwoman Gwen Burton remarked that even though jobs would be created by Sanderson Farms a poultry business looking to build in neighboring Nash County, she believes "the natural resources of Wilson are even more important." Now that's an interesting thought and definitely qualifies as something to make you go......

Wilson is Walking Tall the Movie - Part II . . . The Follow-Up

 Guest Blogger: Daryl Barber A GLORIOUS AND HISTORIC DAY AS WELL AS A DISHEARTENING AND SAD DAY IN WILSON COUNTY POLITICS on DECEMBER 6, 2010 "I stood on the courthouse steps and watched with great pride as Calvin Woodard was sworn in as our new sheriff Monday, December 6th, 2010. It was a glorious and historic day for our county as a 28 year reign of "special interest, backdoor dealing, good ole boyism and political patronage"...

Simplifying Sanderson Farms

~ Sanderson Farms is helping to put somebody to work. While Nash County and the City of Wilson continue the debate of a similar proposal, on a more positive note take a look at the new facility in Kinston opening in January. OK, here's a little something to think about folks. Do you really believe if this company had not complied with all federal, state and local rules, regulations and certifications the State of NC would be allowing...

Council Members Weigh in on Nash County Board of Commissioners Decision to Purchase Land

Recently, City Council members Gwen Burton, Donald Evans and Bill Pitt voiced their concerns and opinions about Nash County Board of Commissioners' decision to purchase land near NC 97 and I-95 that would allow a chicken processing plant to be built near the Wilson County line. The City of Wilson opposes the plant citing concerns the plant would have a significant negative impact on the city’s water supply, the general quality of...

Kinston NC - Sanderson Farms Newest Addition

Located on U.S.70, Sanderson Farms is poised to open their poultry processing plant early January in Kinston, NC. And while Wilson county is battling legalities with the company and Nash County, Lenoir county residents and officials are excited about Sanderson Farms’ plans to bring jobs to the area. The people are excited about the opening. The area much like Wilson and Nash counties are severely...

A Scumbag... Such Language Is Unbecoming

No need to ask whatever happened to civilty in the exchange of "agreeing to disagree." Times have "a changed" in these here parts and folks have become down right mean-spirited with ill-intent and it shows. Do you remember the song, "every move you make, every breath you take, I'll be watching you?" Ironically, it was a very popular tune back in the day, sung by a vocal group called "The Police."  With no pun intended, it seems to be a lot of Wilsonians are taking that position when it comes to the new sheriff in town....

Punishment Should Fit the Crime
