Opinion

OWS protesters forget history, American values

Editor, Those instituting radical change must have outsiders to demonize: called “enemies of the people” by Robespierre during the French Revolution, “kulaks” by the Soviets, and “sufan“ by the Communist Chinese.



The Setonian
Opinion

Media inaccurate, manipulates public

Editor, Just a few decades ago, the media in this country seemed to be trying to keep us informed of all sides on all the issues, so that we could make our own informed decisions.


The Setonian
Opinion

Mandatory recycling fee a waste of money

Editor, Why does everyone pay a recycling fee on their water bill? I was reviewing my water bill and noticed that I am being charged a recycling fee and I don’t get recycling services.

Opinion

Skate column advocates cavity search and seizure

I am a female UNM student. I also happen to ride my longboard around from time to time. It is much easier to do so during the summer semester because there are fewer people around to clog the sidewalks and to take ransom.


The Setonian
Opinion

College graduates use knowledge to do evil

Editor, Are most college graduates better world citizens than minimum-wage U.S. workers who never finished high school? No! Most college graduates consume far more, pollute far more, travel far more, cause far more global climate chaos and pay far more federal income tax to wage war! When Gandhi was asked what worried him most, he replied, “the hardness of heart of the educated.” I do not want a bigger slice of the U.S.

Opinion

UNM Conservatives’ dire agenda for U.S. is honest

Editor, I’d like to thank Donald Gluck and the UNM Republicans. They made it clear at the SUB teach-in that many conservative Republicans on campus think the (un)Occupy movement is “awful,” and that occupation for free speech, after a period of five weeks, must end.







The Setonian
Opinion

Cannibalism too simple: prayer cleanses hippies

Editor, I read with great interest professor Burbank’s piece concerning the proper method for dealing with the (un)Occupy protesters (curious how it always comes back to the world government of the United Nations whenever you’re dealing with anarchists, isn’t it?) Burbank is right on when he suggests that something must be done with these detestable vermin.


The Setonian
Opinion

NM cuisine colorful unlike other beige American food

Editor, It was humorous to see how Amy Dicketts, an exchange student from Britain, viewed American cuisine in Tuesday’s Daily Lobo, especially considering the strong negative feelings Americans have toward British cuisine.




The Setonian
Opinion

History repeats itself for UNM president

Editor, I noticed this morning that the “controversies” section of President Schmidly’s Wikipedia page has been updated to include recent events surrounding the (un)Occupy Albuquerque movement.
