Letters to the Editor

Dear Gazette staff, contributors and readers: We’ve had another continuous year to be proud and thankful we live in America. God blessed me to be born in this country, the home of the free and the brave, which I cherish. For each one of us to be able to speak freely, publish freely, giving our […]

I have read your so-called magazine for the very last time. The June 23 issue was filled with filth supporting the gay agenda. Regarding the gay pride weekend, who cares? Your garbage magazine has become more and more liberal as the years have gone by. You ran an entire article on a fag who plays […]

In response to Linda C. Wade of Midwest City (“A letter to Sen. Inhofe,” June 23, Gazette), I would urge her to stop writing to U.S. senators who are shamelessly in league with Big Oil and Wall Street and who don’t care about the issues of the people or the issues of the planet.  You […]

James M. Branum (Letters, “Curbed enthusiasm,” June 9, Gazette) makes a few interesting points about cyclists riding on the streets of OKC. Yes, according to Oklahoma law, Title 47 of the Motor Vehicle code, it is legal to ride a bicycle on OKC streets. When cyclists “take the lane,” or they “ride assertively,” this will […]

The Gazette letter (“Stop tolerating injustice”) from Gwen Harrison of Yukon on June 9 pretends to take Israel from victim to villain. The 7 million Israelis live in a region of the world surrounded by 600,000 million hostile neighbors. Since its establishment in 1947, Israel’s neighbors have attacked Israel five times with formal wars, and […]

I am writing to support Gwen Harrison’s letter (“Stop tolerating injustice”), which advocates America should stop supporting Israel until they quit illegal occupation and outright confiscation of Palestinian land. I began to agree with the Arab view that the creation of Israel was unjust when I learned that the non-Jewish Palestinians had been an approximately […]

The Gulf of Mexico disaster is tied like an albatross around the neck of our political system and specifically to you, sir, and your votes. You willingly have participated in the gutting of our regulatory agencies under George Bush Jr. As I watch these hearings, I see every Republican on these committees defending an industry […]

The June 2 cover story (Rob Collins, “The state steal”) was most interesting. The seal was not stolen. It was simply among the office items that W.B. Anthony, secretary to Gov. Charles Haskell, brought to the Lee-Huckins Hotel to be open for state business on the day following the election to move the capital to […]

In addition to being a part-time, pro-bono, semi-curmudgeonly, commentator/”opinionizer” (regarding what we might call “The Cultural Decline of Western Civilization As We Know It”) ” plus an amateur hobby chef/food critic ” I am also a casual history buff. In my personal experience, there is no greater repository of “contemporary, still-living, history” than Oklahoma. Imagine […]

Wow, what a great issue of the June 16 Gazette. Loved the mix of stories, and I’m not even through the whole issue yet. Thanks to you and your staff for sharing your talents. You’re much appreciated. “Stephanie BondMidwest City
