Letter to Editor
- October 11, 2017
Response to recent shooting in Las Vegas The second amendment of the United States Constitution states: “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Obviously the need for a state militia has been replaced by the National Guard and Coast Guard whereby trained military personnel are entrusted with the defense of this country against domestic enemies.[…]

- October 11, 2017
At the bottom of its stationery, the Nevada Supreme Court has a quote that partially states: “The has the responsibility to provide impartial, efficient, and accessible dispute resolution in legal matters,” and we are now wondering who they are trying to impress… or fool. Last week, way long expected confirmation of the suspension of Attorney Scott Holper was more than a laugh; it was an insult to the people of Nevada. After over nine months[…]

With the many cases of medical malpractice we have seen not only in the United States, but right here in our own Clark County, the many class action lawsuits filed because of deadly drugs, of which the big Pharma companies refused to disclose its side effects in a timely matter, many people are often going from doctor to doctor (if they can afford such a luxury) seeking second opinions. With all the tragedies we are facing, attorneys are lined up[…]

We will never know the real story now that the FBI has taken the case

October 20, 2017

It is a sad commentary to report that the mass shooting from the Mandalay Bay on October 1, 2017, in which 58 persons were killed and more than 550 persons were injured — and during which the gunman allegedly died at the scene in his hotel room, all depends on which report from the LVMPD you would like to believe. The disinformation given out from the very start by Sheriff Lombardo, at one of the ongoing press conferences, drew a[…]

October 18, 2017

The reputation and the integrity of Las Vegas Review-Journal columnist and radio talk show host Wayne Allyn Root (WAR) is, in our opinion, indisputably solid and even if we do not read his column regularly, we do not mind recommending that every American read his column.

They lie in word and deed

October 18, 2017

I am almost convinced that most of the elected officials, government-appointed employees, and supervisors may be under the mistaken impression that the voters are inept, illiterate, or perhaps mentally challenged or dumb, because of the way they act, work and treat their constituents. They lie in word and deed and show a great display of disrespect to those who voted in their favor and helped them to become as “almighty” as they now believe they are. They make plans, make decisions[…]

October 11, 2017

Harvey Weinstein is a Hollywood mogul extraordinaire. He was a mover and shaker. But apparently, he was moving and shaking things that didn’t want to be shook. The Weinstein Company fired its co-founder Harvey Weinstein on Sunday, after a New York Times investigation uncovered allegations that he had engaged in rampant sexual harassment, dealing a stunning blow to a producer known for shaping American film and championing liberal causes. It’s pretty bad when you are[…]
