Cindy Rose
Cindy A. Rose began writing for the Tentacle in 2011 trying to raise awareness over things happening within Frederick County Public Schools. She began keeping a close watch on FCPS when she learned there were not enough air conditioned buses for special needs children during the hot Maryland summers. The Tentacle offered her a place to share her concerns with her community when local newspapers didn’t always. Cindy had the opportunity to buy the Tentacle from creator/owner John W. Ashbury in 2019, so she did. She believed then, as she believes now, our communities, friends and neighbors have important things to say that needs to be shared with those living around them. Large corporate news companies don’t always share in those passions and concerns. The Tentacle is a local news, commentary and community website run by citizens, for citizens. Its success depends on your participation.

Reclaiming A Humble Existence On Freedom Day
We have all heard of, or maybe even known, that person in the neighborhood who until the moment they passed away we had no idea they were so charitable. Then slowly the quiet chatter rose about all the lives they had touched. We didn’t know they were the ones responsible for the new roof on the Smith house and for seeing that Mr. Jones made it to his chemotherapy appointments every Thursday.
The Conservative Purge Begins
So it begins, the purging of conservative voices. Lovers of the Constitution and federalism have been trying to sound the alarm for years now. You were warned Democrats had been replaced by totalitarian socialists. “Co-existence” is not their goal.
