There title, not mine.
This is a "light" explanation of how bad it is up here. Glad to see Fire Chief Dirr adding some perspective.

I just hope they suffer from hypothermia this winter..
It's Bush's fault.
I feel for people that are truly homeless and down on their luck, God help them. Life shits unfairly on a lot of people.
But the damned "travelers", the friggin' unwashed dreadlocked hippie druggie bums who believe society's rules don't apply to them, yet also believe they're entitled to all the free shit they want - THOSE assholes can get ass-raped and eaten by bears for all I care.
Nom nom nom, eat 'em up Yogi. I hear patchouli makes them spicier, and when they're stoned they're easier to catch!
Yeah, "light" is right.
Yea, the current migration of maryjane tourists into the mountains of Boulder County is a redo of what happened in the early '70s, with hippy encampments around Ned, Sunshine, Ward and Jimtown. In public and private land meadows, side canyons and old mine sites the new urban hillbillies pitched camps, trashed and crapped their places with no respect or regard for the land, plants or animals. Part of the result back then was the repopulation and resurgence of Nederland, Ward and Rollinsville as communities. I wonder what will result from this long term, probably more destructive urbanization, but the onset of winter will cull many of the unfit for now.
What cracks me up is the obvious hipocracy of the Earth loving, filthy hippies trashing the very Earth they reside on, illegaly by the way. Sometimes burning it to the ground. [facepalm]
I was in the Springs yesterday getting gas and some moron was giving them money. Falling for the whole empty gas can thing. "We're trying to get to California where our friend got arrested..."
