What do you folks think the chances of Metro Denver (+ others) experiencing the same sort of riot issues like Ferguson/Baltimore/Charlotte have undergone?
Why or why not could it happen here?
What areas would or would not be of concern?

It can and probably will...just a matter of time.
We have plenty of bleeding heart liberals running around here.
Downtown Denver. Pretty much anywhere in that area. Personally I think the mall and also maybe colfax areas.
Maybe in the city of Denver they could get away with it. This is just my opinion if they try to come to the suburbs or out of big citys and try there shit they will get taken out by people that wont let them burn down there nehibor hoods.
I'd guess it could happen on a much smaller scale. I don't think the population of black folks in Denver is nearly as high as in those other cities.
If this bifurcation and race divide is not stopped from within the black community, it will happen in Denver in a matter of time....
Chances are excellent! The same you-owe-me mentality, the same kind of race baiting liars and community organizers, the same gangster-fuckstain people live here or the organizers will import them to stir things up.
Caplis had a couple of racists on his show the other day, one of them is a well known liar and agitator, these racists don't think due process should apply to the police when one of theirs gets killed for assaulting a police office with a weapon. OTOH they think they should be able to walk into any store or home and take what they are "owed".
There is NOT a systemic racial bias within law enforcement, the idea that there is used as an excuse for criminal behavior. There is a movement to create a WIDE division between whites and blacks that did not exist before obama took office, klinton will exacerbate the situation.
Stay out of Denver when trouble starts, if you have kin in Denver DO NOT go get them, let them get themselves out. Actions have consequences and living in Denver carries the consequence of being a victim in a riot.
It could happen but I think the chances are very low compared to other areas of the nation.
Not gonna happen here. Pot is legal. The outrage needed to put down the Cheetos and get off the couch is not attainable.
I think it could definitely happen here, although I agree, not as large of a scale. If the circumstances are just right- basically any cop shoots any black suspect, regardless of circumstance, people will get very upset. Maybe not to the point of Charlotte or Baltimore or Ferguson... Looking back at the protests a few months back, where peaceful protestors blocked an onramp to I-25 and were across the street from the capital.
exactly, like the DNC protestors--they will be the ones to get the ball rolling. Soros will bring in all the hooligans needed.
the usually trigger happy denver cops will have to light the spark. killing a mexican gang member a month or two ago wasn't enough to fire it up.
You need to realize that the bulk of the rioters that Ferguson, Baltimore and now Charlotte are seeing are not locals. They are professional agitators, rootless anarchists, amateur agitators and other transient debris. They have funding from various Democrat associated dark money sources like Soros' foundations. They can coalesce in a city in hours given a sufficiently newsworthy incident.
Frankly, I expected some trouble in Denver downtown this summer and am surprised it hasn't happened yet.
Pipe-wielder gonna go down HARD in Ft. Collins. Jes sayin'
There won't be any riots until Obama cancels the election.

@ErinBurnett Charlotte police sergeant tells me 70% of ppl arrested last night had out of state ID: "these are not protestors, these are criminals"
No surprise there.
It WILL happen here because the race-baiters need some unrest to and more white guilt to push their takeover of the state.
If any ruckus busts out on Colfax near my house, and spills over to INCLUDE my house................a very bad day will be had by anyone who decides to RIOT IN THE NAME OF "JUSTICE".....on my property or against my person.
:)
Nah.....just Rioting for Justice pisses me off.
C'mon Pueblo, you can do it!
Zero in the next 3 years. Slim/none in the next 5. '5' is only because I can't see the future... and because I'm respectful of the fearful sort of human. The disrespectful portion of me would say you're good to go anywhere in Colorado for the next 10 years.
It can happen anywhere, but there has to be an existing level of unrest to spark a boiling point. We simply don't have that extreme level of discord here in Colorado and it doesn't exist in an overwhelming majority of the country. But if you want more information, go ask some people that you cross paths with during your day to day. 99.9% of them will have no idea what the heck you're talking about.
And I'm guessing that at least half will think you're weird for asking that sort of question outside of an anonymous internet forum.
Who knows? I could invent hypothetical geological locations in the Denver metro area that could turn into warzones based on hypothetical assumptions that the issues of the ass-backwards south will eventually show up here someday.
The world can change tomorrow. Our country can change tomorrow. I would recommend that you live where you want to live, do what you want to do and be prepared for when things go wrong.
So the Liberty Riots of 1768 or the Boston Tea Party weren't organized groups of armed men out to destroy property of their political enemies? Or the riots in Boston, New York or Philadelphia where the Sons of Liberty organized people to march against British troops because of heavy handed taxation and policing tactics? Not saying I agree with the motives or reasons of today's rioters, but don't think that rioting and destruction of property aren't effective in effecting political change. Usually because it precedes a revolution, which are usually not peaceful.
You people are so selfish. How else am I supposed to get a large screen TV ? [Sarcasm2]
Not a large enough concentrated population of the perpetrators here.. Won't happen. Look at Denver's crime rate as well as poverty rate compared to the cities where this is happening.. not even close.
The black vote is a non issue in Colorado. Now if they start encouraging this behavior among the Latino population things will get messy here. But I see that as somewhat unlikely (unless Trump wins and the LaRaza/Azatlan folk start their own version of #BLM)
Whether colorado has the racial demographics or not is irrelevant--the protesters will be imported, or come on their own
70% of charlotte arrests held out of state IDs

The counter to that is that there's too much space between Denver and the professional rioters. Takes just a couple hours to drive from city to city back East to loot, I mean protest.
In other words it just takes too much work to get to Denver.
Doesn't matter the color or creed, criminals are basically lazy.
O2
Has to do with 50+ years of Democrat control left unchecked... so it's in Colorado's future unless things can be turned around.
and THIS^^^^
all it takes is for those agitators to decide to show up in Colorado, and that gets the ball rolling- the other 30% are just local opportunists looking for free TVs or just purge time.
so IMHO, it could happen next week- just need a "trigger" and the agitators to decide to show up. And we've seen the "trigger" can actually be a justified shooting from history.
Colorado is too trendy to get this rowdy still. We're more about social media hashtags and craft beer. More than that, and most of Denver won't get involved.
In 10 years though? who knows.
Importing people to large cities in the South and out East is different than it is out here. Tulsa isn't even having issues.
