Truly confusing. I have written and called Sen. Kelly Ayotte to ask her why she voted against the will of the majority of the people of New Hampshire. Her column sounds like she is trying to say that she is for our safety and for lawful background checks …

Re “Concord students should be made more aware of environment” (Monitor Forum, May 9): Kudos to Kyle Klose who described how Concord schools taught him to value critical thinking and creativity, and why this training is important in guiding him to find a sustainable lifestyle (one which recognizes …
