MY TURN: Norris should be held accountable for his actions

By now, everyone has heard about the assault on my good friend Teresa Borrenpohl at the KCRCC town hall on Feb. 22. Everyone has heard about the charges brought against the six men who assaulted Teresa and several others who attended the town hall, but why is no one talking about the man who orchestrated and directed the assault — our very own Kootenai County Sheriff? It’s hard for me to believe that Bob Norris is immune from consequences.

TOWN HALL: Lawsuit is frivolous

I read the ridiculous Press article today about the Post Falls Democrat agitator who filed a tort claim in Kootenai County for being removed from a “Town Hall” meeting in February. Reportedly removed after repeatedly disrupting the meeting by shouting and speaking out of turn, she trampled upon the freedom of speech rights of others whom she interrupted. Warned multiple times before Sheriff Norris informed her she had to leave, she refused, and the sheriff attempted unsuccessfully to physically remove her, prompting him to direct security personnel to act.

In Wyoming, the Eastern Shoshone tribe decided to classify buffalo as wildlife. Here is why

While climate change isn’t the main driver behind the push to restore buffalo's wildlife status, the move could bring positive effects to the fight against global warming. Climate change is shrinking Wyoming’s glaciers, contributing to drought, and increasing wildfires. Like cows, buffalo emit methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, by belching, though it’s not clear if buffalo give off the same levels.
