Letter: How Goodman views women is on display

Wednesday, Sept. 12, 2007 | 7:36 a.m.

This appalling caricature of a mayor has insulted and will encounter the resentment of thousands of Las Vegans with his suggestion of turning this city into "brothel city." Mayor Oscar Goodman's glandular mentality has now conceived of buildings to house this decadence.

I find it totally unacceptable, yet those to whom he appeals may not; for greed is their venue and for them it may be an inviting thought. It is a revolting possibility, to say the least.

Many parents who are already aware of the loathsome activities in parts of Las Vegas are trying daily to instill clean ideas, ethics and humane behavior into the minds of their children.

Further, Goodman's suggestion is indicative of his level of respect for and value of young women. In the Old West a man of his ilk would have been ridden out of town on a rail. It's not a bad idea!
