Letters to the Editor: I saw anti-LGBTQ+ hate outside Saticoy, not concerned parenting

Despite claims by anti-Pride protesters that they were not against LGBTQ+ people, a reader says there were hateful statements made outside Saticoy Elementary on June 2.

Grateful to the voters of Nevada for re-electing our client @AaronDFordNV. Attorney General Ford ran an exceptional campaign bringing together Nevadans of all backgrounds and viewpoints. We know he’ll continue his work as a fierce advocate for justice in the Silver State.
