In response to “Tiring of Nicole’s abrasive views” (LGBT Weekly March 13, issue 142) Dear Editor, I have always seen Nicole to be an exceptionally talented social person and many a person should learn how you should always have something positive to say/observe about someone in public. Hint. I had the pleasure of serving with…
Disappointment and dissatisfaction at new “Fat Tuesday” Dear Editor, As a person who has attended Hillcrest Mardi Gras for many years, I cannot express how disappointed I was with the new “Fat Tuesday.” Billed as being bigger and better than ever, it was anything but what was marketed. I purchased a VIP ticket for $75;…
Tiring of Bill’s Thailand (mis)adventures and more Dear Editor, Let me applaud your paper’s determination to present views from many LGBT groups and the attempt by Mr. Hanson’s column to widen the age range. He wants to speak for those of us who are seniors (I’m 71). Unfortunately his ramblings are often just that, ramblings….

In response to ‘Kevin Faulconer is ready to be mayor’ Dear Editor, Nicole Murray Ramirez has apparently ended her “bromance” with Republican-Independent-Democrat Nathan Fletcher, and has now taken up residence with Republican Kevin Faulconer. Ramirez endorses Faulconer (San Diego LGBT Weekly issue 135, Dec. 5) for three explicitly stated reasons: 1. Faulconer is a clone…
In response to ‘Why endorsements don’t count’ Dear Editor, It is sad that the legacy of LGBT journalism is so blithely dismissed in your recent editorial (San Diego LGBT Weekly issue 131 10/10/13) on political endorsements. While it is true that more information is available to voters than ever before, this is in fact the…
A thank you to Harvey Milk’s American Diner Dear Editor, I want to acknowledge and thank the Harvey Milk Foundation for advancing the LGBT cause with their opening of Harvey Milk’s American Diner.
