Melton: Attorneys are supposed to be able to defend all
I really enjoyed this article written by Will Melton of the Montana Kaimin. This article was about how "Keep it Safe America",a organization founded by Liz Cheney and Bill Cristol in order to attack the Obama administration for turning against the policies instituted by Dick Cheney and former President Bush. Keep it safe america is attacking attorneys who are following a proud American tradition of defending the rights of those we most despise is despicable. I believe that everyone has a right to a fair trial, even if you are a "scoundrel" or someone that is associated with a bad group like terrorists. In this country every person has the right of free speech, and just because a lawyer is defending them to give them that right does not mean that the lawyer should be punished in any way.


Guest Column: A Vermonter Discovers Montana Foods
I loved reading this article written by Kyra Williams. The main reason why i really enjoyed this article for the most part is because it is about food. Kyra lived in Vermont and loved the home made hot maple syrup that her neighbor always made. So when she decided to move to Missoula her neighbor told her she should be seeing what kind of local food we have. Kyra was pleasantly surprised at the familiar local fruits, vegetables, meats, and cheeses she found at the farmers market. Kyra found out that Missoula is home to a nationally recognized farm-to college and farm-to school program that support our local Montana farmers,ranchers, and producers by serving local products in our cafeterias. This is very cool to find out how our county is helping our locals and buying their crops, the crops all of us eat at school everyday.


Caught in the Act: Guy candy, not storylines
This article written by Kaelyn Kelly was amusing to read. To sum this article up it is pretty much about her opinion on the porn industry and all the mens magazines out there telling guys how to get their girls to do things that they don't want to do. She thinks that the porn industry is gross and it only appeals to men so women have no desire to even watch it. The porn industry only appeals to men because the guys are always ugly and the girls only have huge boobs and do crazy positions. If the porn industry was supposed to appeal to women they would make the guys cuter and the girls would need a lot more done than a boob job, to put it nicely. Kaelyn thinks that porn portrays sex in an unrealistic way. Instead of trying to talk your significant other into trying to do these crazy things, how about just having a mature conversation about your sex lives. I completely agree with this article. I mean I'm sure we have all watched a porn before in our lives but it does portray sex in a gross unnatural way. Sex might be just sex to guys, but for girls (for the most part) would go for a little romance to, not just all the dirty talk in the porns.
