LETTER: COVID questions remain

So now that COVID-19 seems to have disappeared from the mainstream consciousness, just a few questions:

Why didn’t the virus wipe out the homeless population? Why did COVID basically avoid Africa? Why is it that most of the people who tested positive were asymptomatic? Why did lockdowns do nothing to stop the spread? Why were football stadiums filled with maskless people but schoolchildren were wearing masks?

Why weren’t the violent protests of 2020 considered to be super-spreader events? Why do the boxes that masks come in say that they do not stop viruses, but we were told to wear them to stop the virus? Why did more people die of COVID after we had the vaccine than before?

Just asking for a friend.

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.
