Once again someone in Las Cruces calls the police for help and a family member is killed. Since you're not going to have oversite by a citizens committee, how about filming when your officers so that there is no contradiction. The police investigate themselves, clear themselves and go on.

Before everybody get all excited about Mr. Estrada being killed by the police, it is against the law to have a pellet gun in city limits.

Las Cruces police strikes again. They don't know how to injure or maim someone. They only know how to kill.

I am happy to hear there were witnesses where the officers shot at that man. Hey, the officers need to protect themselves too.

I find it disgusting and appalling that the newspaper would print the picture of the mother who lost her son.

It was sure interesting to read the interview between the Sun News and our Dona Ana County Sheriff, Todd Garrison. He's right when he says people are quick to criticize someone else's duty when they don't have to make these decisions themselves.

I have got to say that the fireworks display tonight was awesome. In my opinion that is the best one the city has put on in years.

I have served in Vietnam and never did like fireworks and after my service there hated them even more. I just drove home at 9:00, and was appalled at the fireworks being shot up into the air throughout the city. In this dangerous fire time, it seems a silly thing to do.

Dona Ana County taxpayers need to stand up and say enough is enough about their poor mismanagement of county resources.


Last two bond issues were to pay for Triage Center. What is going on with this?

The new Las Cruces Convention Center at El Paso and University Ave is allowing a row of beautiful healthy pecan trees to die. They might as well haul off the benches from under the tress as the tress are half dead.

Under Richardson New Mexico children were 47th in the nation for well-being. We have always been a poor state, but in three short years Martinez took us to 50th.

Thanks Brook for sharing with us about your trip with your family on the train. Too bad more people don't know the excitement of taking vacations on trains, plus you get to sit back and relax while checking out the scenery.

To the person who said the Republicans are willing to spend billions of dollars on border. The money is wasted. They could do that all with e-verify, I agree with that. The problem is the Democrats are blocking it.

The Annual Free Health Clinic in New Orleans dispels the myth that conservatives spin about the so called "takers." Eighty-three percent of people who go to those clinics nationwide are the working poor. They are paying taxes and contributing to society, but that cannot access health care. What a travesty for the richest country in the world.

Dr. Gosnell is being prosecuted for killing babies born alive and full term. His criminal charges have nothing to do with legal abortions.

What haunts me is that before Roe v Wade, I saw a picture of two different women dead on the floor from botched abortions. No one but the woman and her doctor should decide. Government should stay out of it.
