LETTER: Kit Carson Elementary meets cancel culture

So Kit Carson Elementary is on the hit list for the latest round of cancel culture schemes in Clark County (Friday Review-Journal). Once again, local politicos are on the move to remake Las Vegas history.

Wasting up to $40,000 of taxpayer money for the name change is no problem for members of the School Board. It’s not their money, so who cares?

Considering the sorry financial state we are currently in and that we are unable to get mandated unemployment funding out to desperate local families, here’s another example of misguided dictates promoted by the elite. Trustee Linda Young, pushing this cancel-culture project, evidently knows what’s best for us, the unwashed.

Our schools are rated as very poor in national surveys. With such shameful stats, why are we spending more taxpayer money to promote pet projects?

LETTER: O.J. tribute in bad taste

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.

LETTER: No comfort in falling inflation rates

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.
