Dear editor: It is unequivocally astonishing to me that the 51 – and now 41 – lawyers wax and wane (not so eloquently) banal platitudes about the protection of First Amendment rights and at the same time express an overtly aggressive desire and attempt to strip Harriet Hageman of her First Amendment rights.

Dear editor: Cat Urbigkit’s latest opinion piece takes exception to Western Watersheds Project’s comment letter to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, concerning the terms and conditions of the coming legally-mandated wolf reintroduction in Colorado.
Dear editor: Rod Miller’s assessment of the biological status of horses is simply incorrect and is based on a disturbingly shallow appreciation of the relevant scientific facts.
