Grant “Jake” Goss (Letters, “Councilman misfires with gun comment,” Feb. 16, Gazette) presents a reductionist and laughable argument. Are a Ferrari and a Pinto the same because they both use an internal combustion engine and roll on four wheels?

This is a letter in response to the article “Pawing at profits” (Feb. 23, Gazette) and to remarks made in said article by Sen. Josh Brecheen of Coalgate.

I would like to thank Oklahoma Gazette and staff writer Clifton Adcock for the Feb. 23 cover story “Pawing at profits” regarding puppy mills and, sadly, the efforts by Sen. Josh Brecheen, R-Coalgate, to repeal this law.

One needn’t be the sharpest tooth in the hound to imagine why you, Sen. Josh Brecheen, would advocate repeal of SB 1712. I suspect one only need follow the money trail. I’d be willing to bet you have a friend or two with “puppy mill-itis.”

“Wrong and rotten” — the catchiest description of Bill Maher, reaching back to his days of daze on ABC’s “Politically Incorrect” as coined by Salem Radio host Hugh Hewitt.

Since reading the Gazette’s Feb. 9 Commentaries (Jason Reese, “Legislate morality,” Kurt Hochenauer, “Separation anxiety”) about new bills introduced in the Oklahoma Legislature that would permit some religious teaching in our public schools that concern creationism verses evolution, I have been struggling with some feelings.

Where did our democracy go? With 9/11 came fingerprinting, radio-frequency identification, body scanners, microchips and cameras, just to name a few.

Obviously, Keith Kelley (Letters, “‘Gunhating zealots’ are perpetuating backward thought,” Feb. 9, Oklahoma Gazette) and Bryan Scott (“Who’s paranoid?,” Feb. 2) think it is illegal for Oklahomans to leave the state, and they are oblivious to the fact that Oklahoma law does not cover the entire United States.

Dear Karen Webb, Dear Karen Webb, this is not a gun in my pocket, I’m just very, very happy to see you!

Grant “Jake” Goss (Letters, “Councilman misfires with gun comment,” Feb. 16, Gazette) makes an excellent point in his defense of gun ownership when he compares the efforts at gun control with efforts to criminalize drugs.

I really love the Gazette. I pick it up every Wednesday at a location close to where I work.

In the Gazette article dated Feb. 9, (News, Clifton Adcock, “Time for ‘the talk,’”) the reporter wrote about state Sen. Jim Wilson, D-Tahlequah:

In response to Jason Reese’s Feb. 9 Commentary (“Point: Legislate morality, Gazette), I would like to say that it’s one thing for Reese to have the courage of his personal convictions, but it’s quite another thing to urge passage of legislation that would use the police power of the state to impose his convictions on others.

Everyone who believes in God knows God created everything. Does anyone believe God could not have created life through the process of evolution? Overwhelming evidence indicates that evolution is what happened. Those with a conflict can simply say, “God created life on earth, and this is how God did it.”

I have several comments regarding Kurt Hochenauer’s Feb. 9 Gazette Commentary “Counterpoint: Separation anxiety.” Hochenauer worries that discussing religious ideas could “dumb down” our students. As dumbed-down as our public schools already are, it’s hard to believe that discussing anything could dumb them down any further.
