By Rolando Larraz It was over a decade ago when I was admitted to Valley Hospital, one of the oldest hospitals in our city; back then everything, including Valley Hospital, was old — so old that on the door of every patient’s room was a sign reminding visitors not to smoke in the room. Everyone asked me the same question about my choice of hospital, and I repeated the same thing to everyone who came to see me: the[…]

Letter to Editor – Kudos to the Tribune
Kudos to the Tribune for affirming that that all animals deserve humane treatment. (“Are not animals living creatures that deserve decent treatment?” Aug 9, 2017). To set the record straight though, the so-called “Humane Farming Association” has refused to support legislative campaigns that help animals — like those seeking to ban the cruel practice of locking calves in veal crates, hens in battery cages and pigs in gestation crates. The group’s even refused to support[…]

Letter to Editors – Not Jibing with Reality
Thank you for your excellent, well-written article. We are so grateful for your so eloquently getting the word out on these important issues. The letter was sent to you by someone who is clearly directly connected to HSUS and who is just parroting HSUS’s usual defamatory statements. Her (HSUS’s) facetious assertions do not jibe with what you have seen on our website, in our literature, and elsewhere. More to the point, they do not jibe[…]

Tourists targeted downtown Vegas?
Last Saturday, while playing in Binion’s Saturday poker tournament, my vest with my wallet, with identification, money and personal belongings, was stolen. Aside from the indifference and inability of the casino’s security to deal with the theft, my discussions with other patrons indicate that this is an all too common occurrence at this establishment. The theft took place near the end of the tournament, which had then been moved to the poker room from the large poker area where it had begun.[…]
We the people are fed up
We the people are fed up with the lies and deceit of the greedy politicians who think more of themselves than the people they represent. They are a group of self-righteous individuals who capitalize on every opportunity to benefit themselves. Our voice is being heard loud and clear. Politicians, you will mistreat us no more. We will elect a person who is not a politician and cannot be bought. One who is on a mission to take this[…]
