In response to Meredith Walker’s Sept. 26 letter to the editor, “Islam: a not so peaceful religion.”
The attacks on American embassies have driven home how stupid, dishonest, and utterly outrageous the liberal view of Islam is.
On Sept. 5, I protested outside the office of Promise Arizona against undocumented individuals being allowed to participate in our political process, particularly, in the form of voter registration.

I have noticed in the elevators at ASU, that if a person takes the elevator (instead of stairs) to go between two floors only, people in the elevator will make snide remarks about them when they get off. Please be aware that you can't tell by looking at them if someone is in pain, or has an injury, or a chronic illness, or is just plain exhausted. You don't know why they are taking the elevator, but rude comments about them can be hurtful, not only to them, but also to other disabled people who overhear and to our entire campus by fostering an environment of ableism.
I used to think all dog breeds were the same, until my brother’s pit bull attacked him after eight years of normal behavior with no signs of prior aggression. I know he loved the dog and treated it well. He is still mystified as to why the dog suddenly attacked him without any provocation. My brother is the father to a toddler, so he did the sensible thing: He put the dog down. I see pictures of children that are horrifically maimed, disfigured and sometimes killed by pit bulls and I am so happy this did not happen to my niece. After my brother was attacked I started to tune into the excuses of pit bull advocates and I learned they don’t hold water. For example, the all dogs bite mantra. All dogs bite but most bite and release. Pit bulls hold on and do much more severe damage to human beings and pets as they have been bred to fight and have extreme strength and fewer pain receptors. Pit bull type dogs kill more people than all other breeds combined. They are responsible for so many attacks, you could throw out 66 percent of the attacks and they still would be the top killers, which eliminates the common excuse: It’s not a pit bull. My brother and people like him showed me that you don’t have to be a bad dog owner to be attacked by a pit bull. A year ago Michael Cook was killed by his pit bull. My heart goes out to his family. Since then many other people have been seriously injured by pit bulls.

In response to Sean McCauley’s Sept. 6 column, “Respect missing from sexual relationships.”
In the midst of this political season, I am disappointingly struck by the tremendous amount of money being spent on two presidential campaigns and other federal, state and local campaigns. I believe this not only saddens me, but tens of millions of Americans. Viewing this tremendous amount of money being spent by so few people seeking political offices, I feel driven to write this letter.
In response to the Aug. 30 point/counterpoint on the gay marriage debate by Crista Jackson and Sean McCauley.
In response to the Sean McCauley's Sept. 5 column “The tragedy of the modern relationship”:
Joseph North writes repeatedly that the case for kicking Chik-fil-A off campus is a matter of whether we disagree with Dan Cathy's beliefs. He misunderstands the situation.
In response to the point/counterpoint columns on Aug. 30.
In response to a letter to the editor titled “Kicking Chick-fil-A off campus is fowl play.”
In response to Sean McCauley’s Aug. 29 column, “Leave decision of gay marriage to states”:
My father was a laborer. He worked in the fields, on the railroads and in the factories doing grueling and dangerous manual labor so that I could be the first member of my family to go to college.
It’s that time of year again.
In response to Ray Ceo Jr.’s letter to the editor on Aug. 27, 2012:
As an alumnus of ASU, I am appalled that Chick-fil-A continues to serve fat-infused chicken sandwiches on campus. Now that the company's message of hate and bigotry is clear, it is time that ASU shows them the door.
