Student demonstrations show the country is in good hands

I am not an anti-gun advocate, but I have been very impressed by the way our young people are handling the nationwide protests.

There have been no overpaid football players dishonoring our flag and all that it stands for. There have been no reports of innocent storekeepers’ businesses being broken into in order to steal new TVs or cases of beer. There have been no burning of businesses or shooting of police officers during these demonstrations. No one’s right to express their views has been taken away.

There is a segment of our society that can learn a lesson from these young people on how to demonstrate peacefully while making an impression on all of America. I believe America’s future is in good hands.

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.

LETTER: Columnist gaslights about Donald Trump

Mr. Trump would have not won if his affair with Stormy Daniels had been made public after the “Access Hollywood” tapes in which Mr. Trump brags that he grabs women by the genitals.

LETTER: A balanced approach on the energy transition

We will never be free of fossil fuels. A balanced approach is needed. Politically doctrinaire positions on both sides won’t help us resolve the current problems.
