HUBBUB: Readers' thoughts on Crestview traffic, Islam in textbooks

Editor's Note: Our website and Facebook fans shared their thoughts on Crestview development and a textbook the Okaloosa County School District removed from fifth-grade classrooms.

Sort out traffic problems, then develop

The developer is only concerned with the amount of traffic that passes by the location. They do not care about the traffic problems that a development there will present.

I will embrace this change when they have the traffic problems sorted out.

You try to keep an open mind when you're stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic, going from Duke Field all the way through Crestview, during rush hour traffic.

North Crestview residents need relief

They need to figure out a way for all of the people on the north side of town to get in and out of Crestview easier without all the traffic. Having just one street in and out of town is ridiculous.

Why use Islam in textbook?

The intent works — "pray vs. prey.” But naturally, the question has to be asked: Why are they using Islam as the example in a predominately Christian community?

If they want to start familiarizing our kids with other cultures, that's fine. But don't slide it in and not get upset when people object to it.
