Letters to the Editor

Ute fans should stop game-day harassment

September 9, 2009

Editor:I am and always will be a Ute fan but continually get frustrated with the behavior of other Ute fans who feel they can disrespect other teams and their fans. My niece is an Aggie and attended the...

Deesing?s article was spot on

September 9, 2009

Editor:I appreciated Jonathan (Deesing)'s insights in his opinion piece about Gov. Huntsman ("Huntsman a model for open-mindedness" Sept. 2). I have had similar feelings over the past couple of years,...

Online textbooks don?t hurt students

September 9, 2009

Editor:This is in reference to Liz Carlston's column ("Online textbooks hurt students in the end," Sept. 3). The author failed to address all aspects of one of the most important issues to the students....

Transportation fair good place to learn about the issues

Editor:Wow! Thursday's opinion page is all about lack of parking on campus, construction impeding commuting to and while on campus and even a poll on commuting options. On Tuesday, Sept. 1 you can learn...

U events hinder student parking

August 27, 2009

I resent students being told they have to park elsewhere, often in pay lots, even if they have parking permits.

Illegal immigration wrong in every way

April 28, 2009

Gun needed for protection of wife, kids

April 27, 2009

Deesing states that Utahns are gun-toting, fear-driven imbeciles. I believe I speak for the majority of gun owners in this state, as well as in this country, when I say he is making an ad hominem attack based on his own ignorance and irrational fear of guns.

TRAX graffiti unfathomable, unacceptable

April 27, 2009

I take TRAX at least three to five days per week and the so-called artwork left by these "contributors to society" makes me sick.

Fears about permit holders asinine

By and April 23, 2009

In his column, ("Gun love fueled by fear," April 22), Jonathan Deesing commented on a quote from President Barack Obama: "When read in the proper context, his quote explains that when people mistrust or have become disillusioned with their government, they turn to guns and religion." Obama's and Deesing's implication is that this is a bad thing. That's why people are offended.
