Letter: Carnivore nonprofit tries to gobble up wildlife neighbor

The Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Northern Utah (WRCNU) has served our community from its current location since 2009. In March 2023, Ogden City gave notice that the Center had six months to close its doors and find a new location. The reason, Dinosaur Park wants to raze the building and ...

Letter: New flag’s a flop; dreaming up Romney replacements

Folks, not knowing Sen. Daniel McKay personally, I can only surmise his idiotic flag bill (S.B. 31) was railroaded because he knew that true Utahns wouldn't OK it in an open election. This ugly new flag was probably designed by an outsider move in. To many of us, it looks like some "third ...

Letter: American Conservation Coalition Summit coming to SLC

As a state that deals with environmental issues that are affecting the everyday lives of us all, Utah is a good place to speak our voice and bring awareness to impactful issues. From June 15-17, the American Conservation Coalition, also known as the ACC, will be holding the second-annual ACC ...

Letter: Ogden City could put acquired land to better use

I am a resident of Ogden in the Municipal District 1 area. I have reviewed the full proposition information packet for the referendum of Resolution 2023-7, Property Purchase at 605 North Jackson Avenue. I agree with the sponsor's argument in many ways- specifically that this development should ...

Letter: Waste of money to hold individualized graduation events

It appears that the Office of Equity, Diversion and Inclusion is nothing more than an Office of Divisiveness. To have separate graduation ceremonies for the LGBTQ Community or students, then the Pacific Islanders, then the Asian, then the Latin and African communities does nothing to bond the ...

Just thinking ... Men & women have been known to kill their own children. They get life in prison, in some cases, the death penalty. A woman goes to an abortion clinic & kills her child (some actually born alive) & her doctor (who performs this procedure or leaves a ...

Letter: Bible’s truth only revealed to those ready to hear it

I have a testimony that even if the Bible is the most violent book some people know of, God will not allow a person to understand the words on the page until he's prepared your heart to receive them. When I was in trade school, an English teacher named Brent told me he didn't think you can ...

Letter: Today’s GOP candidates aren’t like they used to be

The Republican Party of Utah has invited Ron DeSantis, governor of Florida, to offer the keynote address at their annual convention on Saturday. Looking at the two frontrunners vying for the top spot on the Republican ticket of 2024, DeSantis and Donald Trump, one must surely wonder, why ...

Letter: How much religious freedom is too much?

The Supreme Court and some state legislatures have been consistently coming down in favor of evangelical religious interests. Is the government taking religious freedom too far? Religion goes through times when it is pampered or even established and other periods when it is persecuted. In the ...

Letter: Please deal with the river on top of the hill

This sounds strange, but that's what we have at the mouth of Weber Canyon. The Weber River runs on top of a hill for about a mile, about 100 feet above the gravel pits between Weber and Davis counties. Some gravel pits are still being used and are getting bigger. It's not normal for a river to ...
