Reynalds' music ban rhetoric is offensive

It is great to see Jeremy Reynalds writing for the Lobo again this semester. I certainly respect what he does for homeless people and enjoy his commentary, even though most of his rhetoric is misguided in my opinion.

Several G Lot parking permits up for grabs

When Parking and Transportation Services set sales ratios for the G and South Lots, we considered not only the capacity of the parking lots but that of the shuttle systems, as well. We have come closer than ever to balancing the two routes and ensuring that all our park and ride customers receive the same quality service.

Column promoted, blasted censorship

In response to Jeremy Reynalds' column "Pro-pot song should be banned" from the Aug. 30 Daily Lobo, I can't help but laugh at the absurdity and hypocrisy of his article. I find it rather curious that a guy who writes a column for a newspaper and ex-sometimes-radio-show-host would argue for censorship.

COLUMN: Drug war another form of racism

As you look over these words, the United Nations World Conference Against Racism is underway in Durban, South Africa. Hopefully the magnitude of this conference is a growing reflection of a movement to create world partnerships to address and deal with racism in all its 21st century manifestations.

Reynalds does not understand freedom

I am writing in response to Mr. Reynalds' column in Thursday's Daily Lobo titled, "Pro-pot song should be banned." I would like to remind Mr. Reynalds that this country has a little piece of paper called the United States Constitution that gives anyone on this soil the freedom of speech and expression that is denied to many around the world.

Aggie fan to root for Lobos this weekend

I am sending this message to the Lobo football team in hopes of their success this weekend. I may be defecting my life-long support of the New Mexico State University Aggies for just this football game. After the Lobos pummel the Miners, maybe the Miners will come crawling back to play the NMSU Aggies.

Refunds chance to prove our fiscal responsibility

By now, if you were a responsible taxpayer, and your parents did not claim you as a dependant last year, you may have been informed that you will receive a tax refund as a result of the Bush administration's tax cut. Many on Capitol Hill think that this tax cut is dangerous and not fiscally responsible.

LETTERS: Reader admonishes whiny UNM students

I found myself on the UNM campus on Monday gazing upon the Daily Lobo when I discovered the blatant truth presented by Brandon Curtis on the Opinion page. Marginal students should be sent to T-VI to prevent lowering UNM's academic standards.

COLUMN: Forum chance to question next mayor

Imagine being out late one night with your friends. You have nowhere in particular to go, so you're just hanging out at a neighborhood park. You're not drunk, on drugs, selling drugs, breaking into people's houses or cars or anything else even slightly illegal.

`Going Greek' a worthwhile college experience for some

College should be an experience in your life unmatched by any other, at least up until now. We've all been taught that going on to college will help us get better jobs and gain an edge to be successful and learn new ways of life, and we hear about what it's like to be in college, but to experience it is something really wonderful.

Protest this: disability violations

I read Craig Butler's Aug. 22 column in the Daily Lobo with some amusement, sort of. While I admire his need to protest, it's really a problem when you don't have a worthy subject.

Denying protesters’ access breaches free speech rights

I have to say that I am sickened by the way people in this country treat protesters who go to certain events ready to voice their opinions. Just because protesters disagree with the speaker does not mean they should be turned away from the event or be accused of “screaming and whining.”
