Denver is a Drug smoking city

Denver has a Voter approved City ordinance that tells police not to enforce the state law for smoking pot.

When the Democrat National Convention visits Denver next week the count of drug possession for smoking pot (a staple of the Democrat’s) busts will likely go up also.

And the Denver PD is warning the hemp crowd that it is still against the law of the state.

 

Pot smokers who light up during the Democratic National Convention can expect to get busted under state laws, even though a voter-approved city ordinance makes possession of small amounts of marijuana the “lowest law enforcement priority,” Denver police said Monday.

“We’ve always enforced the state statute,” police spokesman Sonny Jackson said. “That was the law before the initiative and it’s nothing new. I don’t know why we’d relax any law.”

Mason Tvert, leader of the group that sponsored the ordinance that discourages marijuana busts, said city officials are ignoring the will of the voters. Last year, the city prosecuted 1,600 marijuana cases, he said, and is on track to bump that to 1,900 this year.

“We’re concerned, during the Democratic National Convention, that they are going to use the law to cite people or detain them,” Tvert said.

I just think this is funny as hell. the goal of the left/progressives is free drugs for everyone….right?

Work for a ticket

This is total BS and a way to limit the little people from the events because only supporters/workers party type will be allowed.

 

Some of those hoping to wrangle a seat for Barack Obama’s speech were told this week they have to put in six hours of volunteer work for his campaign by Friday to have a shot at a ticket.

And that ruffled at least a few feathers.

“My whole reason why I’m so mad about it is because Democrats need to act like Democrats,” said Heather Kreider, a working mother from Centennial.

“Democrats work for a living, and they have to work and take care of their families. And they say these are open to those in the community, so they shouldn’t ask people to drop everything in their lives for this,” Kreider said Tuesday.

One thing I know and one thing I didn’t know in this article.

The thing I do know is that the Left doesn’t surprise me and this fits their thinking.

the new thing is that “Democrats work for a living” See, I can learn new things at this old age.

‘Gitmo On The Platte’ Set As Holding Cell For DNC

I want to make sure people know who is doing this.

“The Looper” Denver DEMOCRAT mayor John Hickenlooper (D) set up a place to hide the people he is supposed to represent.

this is how Denver will look good on National TV by hiding all protesters because it should be against the law to protest or something.

 

 

DENVER (CBS4) ? CBS4 News has learned if mass arrests happen at the Democratic Convention, those taken into custody will be jailed in a warehouse owned by the City of Denver. Investigator Rick Sallinger discovered the location and managed to get inside for a look.
The newly created lockup is on the northeast side of Denver. Protesters have already given this place a name: “Gitmo on the Platte.”

Not that I would disagree with locking up the WAKO left (the includes the Mayor)

but the left is going to lock up the left for the TV cameras and to prove this Cow town is not a Cow town. Now these are people from California and other parts that want to make Denver a Big city instead of a cow town.

 

I like the cow town.

Eminent Domain In Colorado

RTD wants to steal land from private citizens for a maintenance depot for busses using taxpayer money.

 

A real estate investment group that includes Denver Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan could sack RTD’s effort to locate a new bus maintenance facility near the Mousetrap.

Ascendant Development paid $17.1 million this year when it purchased the 44-acre property at the southwest corner of the Interstate 25/Interstate 70 junction from the Denver Newspaper Agency.

The Regional Transportation District recently said it hoped to buy the property from Ascendant, but RTD said if a deal couldn’t be worked out, it could take the land by eminent domain and pay “fair market value.”

RTD has been battered by bad publicity over plans to use eminent domain for FasTracks rail lines, and the agency might not want to find itself in the position of taking land owned in part by Shanahan.

But who says what fair market value is? And this is stopping the project of a government agency that I think is not representing its citizens.

Anti Freedom groups cry a lot

So the left anti-second amendment gang doesn’t like that someone joined their group to gather information on how stupid they really are. What they are really mad at is that they have not infiltrated the NRA in their quest to ripe al firearms out of Americans hands.

 

ABC National News ran an in-depth story about Mary “McFate,” also known as Mary Lou Sapone, who is a paid informant by the NRA to spy on gun violence prevention organizations (Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary).

As a board member of Freedom States Alliance (Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary) and CeaseFire PA (Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary), and as a lobbyist for States United to Prevent Gun Violence (Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary), McFate posed as a gun control advocate for over 12 years. In addition to befriending gun violence survivors, she was, in fact, a paid mole for the National Rifle Association. (Read more).

UPI Newswire: NRA Using Paid Informants To Spy On Gun Violence Prevention Groups (Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary) Is Easy Since Movement Relies Largely On Volunteers

Major media outlets across the country are pouncing on the bombshell investigative report from Mother Jones that found that Mary “McFate,” also known as Mary Lou Sapone, was paid by the National Rifle Association to spy on victims of gun violence as well as our organization(Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary). , the Freedom States Alliance (FSA).

For the record, FSA runs GunGuys.com, our daily news blog. McFate was a board of Freedom States Alliance (Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary). since September 2006. But she was found to have acted as a mole for the NRA for over 12 years, penetrating every major gun violence prevention organization(Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary). .

According to a UPI news brief on Aug. 3rd:

NEW YORK, Aug. 3 (UPI) — A report of a National Rifle Association mole inside a gun-control group(Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary). illustrates the ease of spying on U.S. citizen groups, an ex-FBI agent says.

The NRA had no immediate comment, but a retired FBI agent told ABC it is easy for industry groups and companies to infiltrate citizen groups since they often rely heavily on volunteers and don’t have the resources to check backgrounds.

ABC said Sunday it confirmed the hired infiltrator, one Mary McFate, had been a member of three gun-control organizations(Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary). , and had even run twice for the board of the nationally known Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence(Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary). .

“This reinforces what we have long known, that the gun lobby will go to any lengths, no matter how unethical, to protect the profits of the gun industry in this country,” (BULL SHIT, make a real case on why you want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason) said Angus McQuilken, whose organization, Freedom States Alliance (Who want to remove my rights to own any gun, for any reason, because they are scary), kicked “McFate” off its board after her true identity was learned.

ABC said the magazine Mother Jones reported recently that McFate, whose real name was Mary Lou Sapone was a consultant for a now-defunct security firm hired by the NRA to keep an eye on groups seen as a threat to unfettered gun ownership.

(Emphasis added by me)

Is it because they want to spy on the NRA that they are really pissed about? I bet they have moles in the NRA also but they might learn that the NRA is for the people and very open to law abiding ownership of guns.

Elk Hunting Swedish Style

I bet they would rather do elk hunting Colorado style.

Motorcycle hit by flying elk

An unusual traffic accident occurred on the E18 highway between Årjäng and Töcksfors in western Sweden late Thursday night when a motorcycle collided with an airborne elk.

A man and a woman in their twenties were riding the motorcycle at the time, following a long-haul truck.
Suddenly an elk rushed out into the road and the truck driver slammed on the brakes.
The driver of the motorcycle swerved to avoid hitting the truck, only to then collide with the elk which came flying through the air after having been hit by the truck.
Both the man and the woman were taken to hospital with serious internal injuries and fractures.
There was no report on the condition of the elk.

Bi-Partisan Bull Shit

So after the Blue liberals talk about being professional and wanting to have dialog. they turn out the lights. What a bunch of childish limp wrist bitches….

 

 

House Dems turn out the lights but GOP keeps talking

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and the Democrats adjourned the House and turned off the lights and killed the microphones, but Republicans are still on the floor talking gas prices.

Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) and other GOP leaders opposed the motion to adjourn the House, arguing that Pelosi’s refusal to schedule a vote allowing offshore drilling is hurting the American economy. They have refused to leave the floor after the adjournment motion passed at 11:23 a.m. and are busy bashing Pelosi and her fellow Democrats for leaving town for the August recess.

At one point, the lights went off in the House and the microphones were turned off in the chamber, meaning Republicans were talking in the dark. But as Rep. John Shadegg (R-Ariz..) was speaking, the lights went back on, and the microphones were turned on shortly afterward.

But C-SPAN, which has no control over the cameras in the chamber, has stopped broadcasting the House floor, meaning no one is witnessing this except the assembled Republicans, their aides, and one Democrat, Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio), who has now left.

Only about a half-dozen Republicans were on the floor when this began, but the crowd has grown to about 20 now, according to Patrick O’Connor.
