Posted on: Shooting rattles affluent suburb

These comments are ridiculous...I was born in Vegas, and love the whole city. I find it nauseating to read the crap about you people that feel you need to block the sun with your noses because of something so trivial...where you live. I make four to five times the average income of that community, and wouldn't live there for the life of me....I can't even imagine raising my kids to think the way some of you do.

I grew up in Vegas before Palo Verde, heck I thought Cimmaron was the HS in Summerlin...it was the one being built when I graduated from Bonanza in 1990.

....Bonanza had TWO drive-by shootings my senior year (18 years ago!) and that was when Bonanza was filled with some of the wealthier kids in the valley. Nobody is immune to senseless violence....that's why its called "senseless" violence. It doesn't make sense...whether you're rich, poor, black or white.....the prejudism is out of hand here. I've seen neighborhoods in Central and South American where people live in homes built from wooden crates that are safer than Summerlin.....its not about money, and you don't buy safety in a community, you create it, you foster it. Don't be stupid with your comments.
