Clark County pedestrian deaths a result of carelessness, inattention

Why is the city wasting tax dollars on pedestrian safety when most of these people don’t care? They cross the streets wherever they want, sometimes 20 feet from a crosswalk and against the no-walk signal.

These pedestrians need to step up and use good judgment and stay off the cell phones when crossing the streets. I see people paying no attention at all while on a phone. In addition, the police need to step up and start giving tickets for jaywalking. I see people jaywalk right in front of the police and they don’t do anything about it. We need more support from the police to combat this problem.

LETTER: The carbon-spewing Biden family

Climate change is an existential threat to mankind, animals and plants. Why doesn’t the Biden family lead the way?

LETTER: The Trump show trial

Remember, Martin Luther King, Mahatma Ghandi and Sir Thomas More — all innocent men — were also declared to be guilty.

LETTER: No conspiracy involving Hunter’s laptop

The R-J should acknowledge that Mr. Trump’s lies, frauds, defamations, criminal indictments and convictions are exponentially worse than Hunter’s laptop being evidence or any of the other alleged Biden missteps.

LETTER: Trump tries to win Nevada

Mr. Trump advocating for tax-free tip income is definitely one approach to winning Nevada. But my tip to Mr. Trump is to pick Marco Rubio and show the diversity of the GOP.

LETTER: Red Rock development ‘compromise’ is depressing

Red Rock Canyon is a fragile natural wonder. To claim that 3,500 homes and the traffic that goes with them, and changing the nature of the watershed, will not negatively impact the area is absurd.

LETTER: Russian warships off the Florida coast

It’s strange that the mainstream media are treating Russian combat ships miles off the Florida coast as nothing to see here.
