LETTER: Line jumpers taking vaccines at the expense of Las Vegas seniors

A 20-year-old family member working as a nonessential part-time worker in the court system received the vaccine a few weeks ago before my 85-year-old mother. If you have connections with local government, you move to the front of the line.

The most at-risk members of our community are being passed over so people with connections can jump the line. I have heard many stories of people who should not be eligible getting vaccinated before their turn. When will our state do the right thing and get people 65 and older protected first?

I noticed recently that euphemisms are commonly used by progressives in order to make the agenda they support seem less harsh or unpleasant.

LETTER: Biden ignores the Supreme Court on student loans

Biden is constantly harping on how Trump is a threat to democracy and will be a dictator, eliminating our freedoms. It is Biden, however, who has proven himself the dictator who is threatening democracy.

LETTER: More on 1968

As a cop who was at not only at the 1968 Democratic convention at the Conrad Hilton on Michigan Avenue, but also the Chicago arson fires on the west side, I feel there were many reasons why the city was a tinderbox.
