We were again reminded this week that ignorance can breed misunderstanding and occasionally violence.

We were deeply saddened by the senseless murder of five police officers in Dallas. The young shooter, an African-American, claimed outrage over several earlier shootings of black men by police officers elsewhere. He had no known connections to these men, nor to the police officers he shot.

His motive was based on a logical fallacy to which too many people fall prey.

Here's the speech made Wednesday by Carson City Mayor Bob Crowell at the 2016 Chamber of Commerce State of the City address held at Gold Dust West:

This summer, Carson City and surrounding communities have experienced domestic violence at alarming rates. Kirsten Krasovec and Carson City Sheriff's Office Deputy Carl Howell were both killed at the hands of domestic violence abusers, and local shelters have been filled to capacity for months now.

Advocates to End Domestic Violence has rescheduled the Light after Dark Walk/Run to this coming Saturday, Oct. 24. The event will begin at 6 p.m. and warm-ups will begin at 5:30pm.

Due to the conditions of the track from rain from this past Saturday, the walk/run was postponed. We are happy to announce this new date and we hope to see a lot of people come and remember Kirsten Krasovec and support our fight against domestic violence and sexual assault as we light the way.

Light after Dark 5K/10K Walk/Run is to help raise awareness for domestic violence and sexual assault by lighting the way. Bringing light to domestic violence and sexual assault is our goal for the Light after Dark Walk/Run. We want victims and survivors to know that there is LIGHT AFTER DARK.

The race is Saturday, Oct. 17th at 6:00pm at Riverview Park in Carson City. This year’s event is being dedicated in memory of Kirsten Krasovec, a Carson City woman whose life was taken at the hands of domestic violence.

Major League Baseball has recently come out with a domestic violence/child abuse policy. While it is a start, the policy is very weak overall. If you read the policy, that fits on one page, you will see that it leaves a lot of doors open and a lot left to be desired. It has no concrete punishments. This policy is basically up to the Commissioner (just like the NFL, and we all know how well that has gone).

A 22-year inmate who faces multiple sex crime related charges involving minors, had two additional charges — lewdness with a minor under the age of 14 — filed against him Wednesday, a Carson City sheriff’s deputy said.
