LETTER: Cat torturers deserve harsh punishment

In response to your Tuesday story, “Pair charged in torture of cat they say had demons”:

This scenario is something like my worst nightmare come to life. I can’t fathom the demon or devil story. Are these people mentally ill, just really stupid or just really cruel? Whatever their punishment turns out to be, it won’t be nearly as bad as they deserve.

It didn’t happen to my sweet cat, but to hear of such a heinous act has affected me badly and literally diminishes my enjoyment of life in general. I now have the details in my head forever, so it’s one more sad horrible event that will take up residence in my memory.

Not to mention that those who do these things to animals will do them to people next. I hope the sentencing judge bears that in mind.

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.

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.
