To the editor,
A real president for the Navajo Nation is needed.
In 1973, an 18-year-old protesting the legal sale of alcohol to Native Americans who were falling down drunk was killed by Gallup police. The Navajo chairman sent his apologies to the Gallup mayor several years ago.
Farmington police killed a man for assaulting his girlfriend. The Navajo president did nothing.
The present president wants the officer who executed a drunk woman in Winslow, who posed zero danger to him or to his fellow officer (who has yet to be identified), “removed and barred from further serving as a police officer.” There’s no mention of prosecution, or if no prosecution, of boycotting all of...

Building our future economy... together
My compliments to the city of Gallup, and to the business and civic leaders who attended the recent Economic Roundtable for your vision and support for economic development.With the help of visiting experts, 60 of us gathered on July 12 at the Second Street Conference Center for a day of learning and dialogue on the economic challenges and opportunities of the Greater Gallup community. By all measures, it was a resounding success, as we all got engaged in the detail, learned more about what is happening in the community’s economic development work, and brought ideas forward for accelerating our progress.
We all worked to get our heads around the complexities involved in our three...
Madame G guide to the stars WEEK OF AUG. 5 – 11
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Is the state of the world stressing you out? Don’t worry! It’ll all change soon enough, and we’ll have something else to complain about. Instead, enjoy a few Mai Tais on the beach. Perhaps check out South Beach, Florida, where the beautiful people live. Even if you can’t enjoy that, try to get a little fun from a $25 margarita. Salud!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You may experience a little trial that feels like a big one this week. Don’t let it get to you. Remember, don’t take life too seriously, because we won’t get out alive. Take some advice from Steve Stucker from Channel 4 news: “take some time to really enjoy your life today.” Today is the...

Letter to the Editor: Incident reports from the streets of Gallup
Editor,
RE: “Armed and Dangerous”, The Gallup Sun, July 29, 2016.
The killing of Alvin Ross Sylversmyth on July 24 was going to happen eventually; if not him, another Navajo would be dead. Former Gallup Police Department Chief Robert Cron, Deputy Chief John Allen, and Captain Rick White were personally presented with testimony regarding the brutality of the GPD, especially the “Protective Custody” officers that roam the streets 24/7 picking whoever they can nab.
I have been accosted many times by the GPD while walking on the streets minding my own business and sober; this compelled me to compile a document “Incident Reports from the Streets of Gallup” over a two-year...
