Las Vegas is a resort destination that people through the free market have chosen to spend trillions of dollars over the years. It is the absolute embodiment of liberty.

So the steady beat of allegedly liberty loving people on something called the free republic is to denigrate and condemn instead of defend those people who have made a good living in a free market decimated by the tyranny of the left.

Why do many not see the true meaning of the article — that America ideals are at stake which is the thesis is the author that he even says forefront of the piece and instead have the need to tell us why they don’t want to go to Vegas. Whether Vegas, vaccines, lockdowns or whatever the point is NOT your opinion on the subject, it’s the destruction of American ideals and idealism which should unify us

No wonder we get our ass kicked so often. The democrats can put aside their personal difference for the political philosophy they agree on. We are too busy sniping at each other and failing to discern the greater issue

Unbelievable.

“ Las Vegas is a fake city”

Oh really? I guess there are 2 and a half million fake Americans that live here too.

I’ve lived in a number of cities, Las Vegas is as real a city as any of them, both good and bad. It’s a very pro-second amendment city compared to others I’ve lived in...newer and cleaner than any I’ve lived in once you get away from the relatively small Strip corridor. Out in the “burbs” about 16 miles from the Strip, it could be Tucson or Scottsdale or any city in the desert, there’s very little of what you think of as Vegas in most of Las Vegas. You can buy liquor in grocery stores and they have video poker in some brew pubs or the local Buffalo Wild Wings, but that’s about it.

About the only thing that stands out is that we have the best roads in the universe - no bad weather and I’m sure too much Harry Reid payola money for highway construction. Traffic cones for construction are our state flower. But the roads are great and It’s 65 degrees in the winter. Other than that, it’s a city - real - l8ke any other, and a police force that is supported and isn’t expected to take the crap they dish out in other western cities.

We are real, normal, and more conservative than a lot of other western cities...not saying a lot there but there is more level-headedness than you’ll find in LA or Denver. It’s real and it’s not necessary for you to like the image of the major industry in town...to each his own.

Las Vegas was built by organized crime.

Godfather I, anyone?

Sure. Who needs a wild-a$$ed American city like Vegas.

Give me a 'real' city such as Donetsk. /
