In response to many who say, “Clean up the Strip,” come on. Las Vegas is and always will be an adult entertainment town. No one is forcing you to take the “smut” books and fliers. How many times do we see mom and dad taking their kids in casinos, and making the kids stand aside while the parents play? If you want clean, family fun, take them to Disneyland. Leave Vegas as it is, and should be. We like having no kids for a change.

This has been tried and proven. Don’t like it? Go away. I for one am sick and tired of people moving here and wanting to change Vegas to be like where they came from. Go back to where you came from. We would be much better off on a lot of issues — water shortage due to added grass and trees, overcrowded schools, unemployment and housing. Don’t complain about the pig farm, either. He was here first, and you knew that when you bought your cookie cutter house.
