LETTER: Clark County Commission changes airport name

Why should our county commissioners be given the right to decide that our airport’s name will be changed? Did Clark County residents vote for this? I read in the Review-Journal that two of our college presidents back the plan to change the name to Harry Reid International Airport. Do these two “scholarly” men have more say than the public who have been against this for the past four years?

During a pandemic this should not be a priority. The millions needed from donations to change the name could be better spent on worthy causes such as donating to Three Square to feed the homeless and unemployed Las Vegas. One dollar equals three meals. You do the math.

And if the airport name really must be changed, the commissioners should have taken the politics out of it and named it Las Vegas International Airport. Simple and nonpartisan.

Mr. Katsilometes is apparently such a slave to celebrity that he is blinded to the character flaws of the violent felon who he remembers in fawning and adoring terms.

LETTER: Justice is not always served

Two Friday articles remind us that our “justice system” does not work well. It works better as an “injustice” system.

I suggest that our politicians spend less time attacking each other and more time developing a plan to reduce inflation.

LETTER: Jacky Rosen runs from her Democrat-ness

As a lifelong Democrat, I agree with Cobey Du’bravo’s Wednesday letter in which he criticized Sen. Jacky Rosen’s campaign ad for implying she is a maverick Democrat.
