This is as bad as it got in Las Vegas. There have been several instances of violence on the Strip, but entirely unrelated to protests. We live in a very diverse neighborhood, several miles from the Strip, and truth be told, our neighbors are just our neighbors. I think it's pretty much that way city-wide because our "industry" attracts people from all over the world, many of whom decide to live here. Like we did, they come to party, they explore and find a welcoming, family-friendly place to live. So no, we have not had any riots, or beatings, etc.

I would guess that the local police have some diversity training, then, so that people from all cultures feel welcome. So why do you object to the same sensitivity from law enforcement in cities in which you do not live? Is gambling such an important source of inverse revenue, that Vegas is exceptional?
Well, the casinos don't care about the color of your skin, as long as they can skin it.

I do NOT want to wish harm on anyone, but Pence is probably fine, as his wife has a tight rein on him. Remember though, that after Pence, Nancy Pelosi is the next one in charge. Yeah!
