Issue: April 02, 2015
Hi everybody!
If you've been keeping an eye on our letters page the last few weeks,
you've probably noticed the several letters about--for and
against--Assembly Bill 148, the proposed legislation for allowing
concealed weapons on Nevada's university campuses. It's one of those
hot-button, black-and-white, red-state-blue-state, World War III type
issues, where opinions are fierce and nuances go unheard. In this
week's feature story, writer Jeri Chadwell-Singley examines the issue
more thoroughly.
Also in the week's issue, news editor Dennis Myers looks back on the
career of Sen. Harry Reid in response to his announcement last week
that he'll not seek reelection in 2016. Bob Grimm reviews It Follows,
a new horror movie that's been generating a lot of buzz among genre
enthusiasts, and, in Green, Georgia Fisher takes a look at one of our
favorite subjects: marijuana.
As always, be sure to pick a newsprint copy of the paper for
exclusive columns, cartoons and inky rolling papers.
Thanks for reading! If not for you, we'd have no reason to carry our
concealed weapons.
