Legislators need to be able to get work doneRe: “Inquiry sought on student’s removal,” April 7 news storyMuch as I might agree with the message of the anti-gun students in the Colorado Capitol gallery, they nor anyone else should not be allowed to disrupt the legislative session.

Unless the legislators plan to work in a perpetual cacophony, let security do its job unless unnecessary violence is happening.Roger Brisnehan, WestminsterI am speechless at the coverage of the high school student or students’ actions at the Capitol. Somewhere along the line they have learned that shouting like they are at a pep rally will get their point across. They are wrong.A part of getting y...
