We must educate ourselves to be balanced

Dear Editor,
Elections today pit high school grads (Republicans) against college grads (Democrats). Democracy historically needs the more educated class to win.
High schoolers are winning for two reasons: there are more of them and politicians can manipulate them more easily than college grads.
However, college grads have become a lot like high school grads. When they get out of school they stop learning and dedicate their lives to one goal and one goal only — making a ton of money the rest of their lives.

Leaving the 99 to find the one: Local Kingman church visits Las Vegas homeless

KINGMAN — The Kingman Kingdom of God (KOG) Church travels 100 miles weekly to tend to North Las Vegas’s homeless population. On Friday, November 15, the Kingman KOG church welcomed their youth group to join the event for the first time. “I love that almost all of my youth came. It shows their spirit for service,” admits Tim McCoy, youth group leader for the KOG church. Although the middle and high school-aged children were informed but a day before the event, only two youth group members could not join.

The Kingman KOG church is invited into the Las Vegas Restoration and Recovering Center weekly to set up tables.

Response to ‘Trump did some good things’

Dear Editor,

Mr. Pickering, you seem to have a never ending grudge against President-elect Trump. Did he hurt your feelings? Your vile statements reflect the mindset of the far-left’s propaganda machine. Calling our President-elect fascist and dumb only makes one think, where does all the hate come from?

One fact is our President-elect is not part of the “deep-state” that has stifled our country from becoming the nation we can and want to be. This is because some, not all, Democrats and Republicans serve themselves and not the American people!
