Self Defense or Overkill?
Ten .45 rounds fired, man down and very dead. The lawyers
will have a job on this one. To me it appears to have started as self defense
then spiraled out of control.

Labor Day Party
Resident in our building have holiday gathering. I’m not
a great fan. The people organizing them I like so I show up. Banner goes to
visit Sisty. He hates being alone in our apartment. The idea of an 80 lb
friendly eating machine among people and food is not to be contemplated.
Here Comes de Hook
Only when your vehicle is on the hook do most people even
notice a tow truck.

In some neighborhoods and apartment complexes you can
hear, “Here come de hook” or,
“aquí viene el camión de recompra”
Colofornia News
“Wealthy” conservative backers of ballot initiatives keep
blocking the benign, and for our benefit, (P)regressive plans. Horrors!

The same Democrats complaining never seem to have a
problem with wealthy dark money groups interfering when it coincides with their
ideology.
At least seven initiatives will be on the ballot this
election. Some were funded by dark money (P)regressive money. Can you spell hypocrisy?

Unicorn Farts Meets Reality
Confession. I have little understand of “carbon capture”
and little interest in learning more. Seems to this Latter Day Luddite like
some Ponzi scheme. What is apparent it takes a lot of electricity. Other than
climate change hustlers, does anyone else even see a need?

This situation is now an international story and mixed
into national politics. Not a bad thing; sunlight is a great disinfectant.
Mike Coffman is the Aurora Mayor (term limited) and is
nobody's patsy. Aurora has always been a pimple on Denver's ass (years past we
owned two homes there). It is divided by two counties (Adams on the North,
Arapahoe on the South) that results in different tax and bond systems. Denver's
main jail sits on the North side. The
city is home to more immigrants, legal and illegal, than any other place in
Colorado. There is a significant perpetually pissed off black population and a
mobile "unhoused" population. Squeezed continually are 'native'
Mexican descendants. The city council is always split between (P)regressives
and conservatives. At the moment the conservatives have a slim majority. The
Chief of Police office has been a revolving door forever. Some officers would
have been at home in the LAPD Rampart division circa Rodney King.
Perhaps Aurora's biggest problem is the Califorication of
Colorado with the suburban Liberals keeping their neighbors nice while pushing
problems into Aurora and surrounding locales.

Emperor Polis’ husband is a Boulder native and boulder to
his bones. He isn’t the most savvy p.r. person. Perhaps he doesn’t feel a need?
