Use of pornographic image in paper inexcusableTHE image of a woman replicating oral sex on a Mercedes Benz hood ornament that accompanies the article, “Dumb blondes may have the advantage, temporarily” (August 13), is blatantly pornographic and inexcusable. Aside from the blatant sexual context of the image, the woman's nipple is clearly visible.
Empower taxi passengersPASSENGERS in minibus taxis and buses should be empowered to take control if they feel their lives are being put in danger.

Court order a victory for all SA's schoolsTHE recent court order in favour of the schools is and will always be remembered as a victory for all schools (“Victory for schools in posts battle”, July 27). This is a victory not only for the northern areas of Port Elizabeth, but for all schools in the city, the province and the rest of the country.
Look to future, don’t harp on pastHANDS up all of you who are sick and tired of the ANC and its alliance partners’ continuous usage of tired old military/revolutionary jargon 20 years after we all voted “yes” to change.
God knew what to do in designing marriageKAZEKA Kuse, when I respond to your “Unspoken Thoughts”, I am sure you will make certain assumptions about my world view as your article, “Same sex unions will save institution of marriage” (August 7) generalises about several groups and their stance on the institution of marriage.
Readers' views via SMSSOME R800000 for a vehicle is normal for greedy ANC deployees. The poor are forgotten and ignored while tax money is wasted. Beware ANC, voters are tired of this.

Readers' views via SMSTO those idiots who robbed Gardmed paramedics, may you rot in hell. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
Put off after a month's work and not paidI READ with interest the article, “Shortage of interpreters hampering court system” (August 6). I would like to share my frustrating experience.
Must empower women economicallyEACH year, we utilise Women’s Month as a platform to focus the attention of the nation on issues of women empowerment and gender equality. What is key must be the fight against patriarchy in our society.
Be vigilant when locking your carWITH reference to the letter from Linda Muller (“Make sure car properly locked”, August 7), there is a simple way of not falling victim to the car remote scam. Just lock the car with the remote and walk away.
Centre still unfinishedSWARTKOPS residents have been wondering for some time what the uncompleted building is that has just been standing at Tiger Bay for the last three years. The second phase (external completion of the main building and the amphitheatre) has been standing for just more than a year.

What a harrowing visit!EARLY on Monday July 30 we proceeded to SARS for annual tax return purposes.
