					<description>Hey Garrett, this is Claire Conrad from UA Society of Professional Journalists. I was wondering if you might email me your address so I can send you a (very belated) thank you card for participating in our ethics panel. Thanks so much and sorry it's so late!</description>

					<description>“NORM” and “TIM O”,
During my time in Tucson I was a victim of violent crime, had two girlfriends that were raped, a roommate that was beaten during a robbery, all on or within a few blocks of campus at the UofA.  The UAPD was never there to help or save anyone. 

Just because you have never been a victim of violent crime does not mean it will never happen. I have never been in a car accident that a seatbelt could have saved my life, but that is not reason to drive without wearing one.

NORM if you are really an ex-LEO you need some real mindset training. 

“TIM O” as if he had a gun at that moment he would have turned into a raving lunatic. Just like if you bought a fast car you would magically turn into Mario Andretti or Michael Schumacher.

					<description>I must say Garrett I am quite surprised to see you take a stance like this against Ann Coulter. Granted, I know you're not a bigot by any means but I had a feeling you'd be defending her &quot;free speech.&quot; I'm glad to see you are as disturbed by her actions as I and most others are. It is quite sad to see the conservative base rally to her defense for using a word that many people including myself find extremely offensive. Mark my words, there is going to come a day in the next few elections where politicizing homosexuality is going to cost people elections. If you look at Mitt Romney, I think it is part of the reason he didn't run for reelection in Massachusetts. He tried to politicize gay marriage and other sensitive subjects and as a result the people of his state said &quot;don't bother running for a second term.&quot;  </description>

					<description>Thank you  for your input, Anthony, but I'm not sure what you mean by &quot;mirrored&quot; here.  The email was sent from smtpgate.email.arizona.edu according to the email headers I have, and the website itself is a frameset, not a mirror.  I also don't see any code in either the main page or the left frame that indicates any sort of malicious code to steal votes, either.

I'm skeptical of the motives here, but it's not enough to really accuse him of anything with substantiation.  If you don't mind my asking, what are these complaints specifically for, and how exactly are complaints against a non-candidate supposed to work?</description>

					<description>I think you should publicly speak out against what Gerner has been doing. Fifteen people have already files a complaint against him because this was not approved by the Commission.

Such &quot;mirrored&quot; websites are not to be used, as they violate the privacy of the individual users, can be easily manipulated (e.g. a candidate can vote for Stuart, but they can record it as otherwise).

There are numerous candidates, myself included, who have successfully conducted campaigns with integrity and ethics, and I'm sorry to say, Gerner seriously overstepped not only regulations, but a moral and ethical foundation.

Thanks
A.S.</description>

					<description>Although I appreciate what you call &quot;support&quot; for the Vagina Warriors and their show, I think you should consider actually attending a performance of this show or actually talking with a VW before you judge whether or not they or their cause are an insult to anyone.  The Vagina Monologues is designed to celebrate women, to educate people about violence against them, and to help stop the &quot;other war&quot;, or the sexual violence inflicted upon women in this and other countries.  One in every four college-aged women in the US will be a victim of sexual assault or rape before she graduates.  One in six American women of any age will be sexually assaulted at some point in her life.  Look around to six of your female friends sometime and think about how you'll feel if one of them is assaulted.  Maybe then you'll join the Vagina Warriors in defending women's rights to freedom from fear and violence.</description>

					<description>One of the professors mentioned in the Tucson Weekly was Spike Peterson. I remember having her for one of my gen. ed. classes freshman year (I believe).  Boy do I remember that class. I remember her shouting down students who disagreed with her, and at the last day of class she said that she was going to stand up on her soap box and talk to to us. And talk she did. She said bad things about President Bush, about capitalism, about the way the war in Iraq was going (at the time it had just begun), how we were a deteriment to the world, etc.  Wow.  

And worse of all, a friend of mine who was also taking a class took a lot of it to heart. When we started the class, he was a major defender of...the free market. But when I saw him a year later from the class, he told me that Professor Spike was right in so many different ways.  UGH.</description>

					<description>I have but one thing to say about Sen. Gerner's purely coincidental, and sudden, use of &quot;Red&quot; as a nickname just as the campaign season started: put your money where your mouth is and do not use it on the ballot.  That will prove to all people in all time that you never conspired to misuse your position and advantage to your benifit. WHEN, and I say WHEN, Sen. Gerner puts &quot;red&quot; on the ballot, his ridiculous actions, and subsequent explainations, will be transparent. </description>

					<description>Now, why would someone from a socialist country need to steel anything? Hehheh.

Well, France has a bunch of Muslums.  And judging from the riots they had a while back, there are Muslum terrorists over there.

I once learned from the local TV news that the U of A has a very special program:  The &lt;b&gt;B&lt;/b&gt;lack &lt;b&gt;W&lt;/b&gt;eb &lt;b&gt;P&lt;/b&gt;roject (or was it &quot;Shadow Net&quot;).  The BWP tracks internet activity (such as blogs) that are clearly written by Terrorists doing their hate-mongering.  Then, they track the location of acts of terror.  And then, they try to relate it to the content of the terrorists on the web, and even the location of the internet-servers.

My &lt;B&gt;guess&lt;/B&gt; is that a terrorist from France was taking a shot at trying to screw up the BWP.</description>

Infact special forces &quot;rescuing&quot; rats sounds like the making of a movie.  Maybe the U of A should admit to it to get the movie-rights.</description>
