After a long and hard-fought election campaign, I’d like to express my gratitude to all the candidates who put themselves forward to serve our community, state and country.

It was a vigil, not a protest

I appreciate the coverage of our candlelight vigil Wednesday evening, but I object to the headline that called it a protest. It was a vigil, not a protest. We accept the outcome of the election, but we needed to show support for all the people who fear for their safety because of the divisive, hateful rhetoric that was unleashed by the Trump campaign.

Come and express your feelings about the growth policy

Nov. 17 at 4 p.m. at the Park County courthouse meeting room is the review of the new “growth policy” for the county. It has not been widely advertised in advance, and meetings are held during the day so working folks are not available easily to attend. I would like to see as many county people who can attend and please show their feelings by coming, and share what they think about the heavily leaning toward zoning proposed document as it is being shared. There, state your feelings.

Event aimed at healing, not protest

While I am thankful that Liz Kearney came, and gave friendly coverage to our vigil, I am a stickler for accuracy, so although they are perhaps minor issues to some readers, I have corrections and additions to The Enterprise story. The vigil most definitely was not organized as a protest. It was aimed squarely at both red and blue, as a plea for healing and attention to affirming the worth of Americans who have felt the bruising, fearful words of divisive political rhetoric. 

Trump makes mockery of the office

Editor:

It seems the only way the Republicans can move their agenda forward is to have a sociopath as the president of the United States.

If any other Republican candidate had made it to the presidency, there would not be such widespread protests across the country. The Office of the President has been made a mockery by this election.

Who Donald Trump really is

It was Bob Woodward from the Washington Post who said, “We’d be better off voting for the person instead of the party.” I just signed a petition to have the popular vote decide who our president is. I hope all sensible people will also sign this petition. I agree with Trump on one subject, only, the election was “rigged,” in his favor! 

Mr. Trump, you’ll be hearing from me

I couldn’t sleep Tuesday night because of the election results regarding Donald Trump. I agree that a large majority of the voters voted for Trump because they are upset and angry over the loss of jobs in the United States. But that does not mean that we must blame innocent people such as immigrants or other countries for our problems. 

Gold exploration risks too great

The environmental risks posed by Lucky Minerals proposal to explore for gold in Emigrant are far too grave to allow mining to move forward. The Montana Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) concluded earlier this month that there would be no significant impacts from Lucky Mineral’s proposal to explore for gold.
