Chickenlooper - Colorado will accept Syrian refugees

That's my assumption, but I don't know. My wife has her real birthday.

My wife does too. And she's a refugee. Must be weird to not know your own birthday.

Same here. That's petty much what my wife said.

Sounds like i need to invest in Birthday card stock by mid dec.

I'm inferring that for whatever reason, their date of birth has been changed to January 1st of whatever year for their documents when they came here. I don't know how, or why, but it seems pretty suspicious to me. If anyone has info on where I can report that kind of info, I will.

Any of them named John Smallberries?

FWIW, my grandfather and his brothers were born in the US (well, it was still the Hawaiian Kingdom back then) but they all chose days to celebrate their birthdays. To this day, none of us know their "real" birthdays and they're not around to ask anymore. I would guess some deep-rooted Chinese tradition based on some superstition I've never heard about.

Lickenpooper is damn sure a self-serving prick. He'd sell his own mother to toe The Party Line and further his career. The will of the people and the good of the state be damned.

I wish the left was this open-minded about gun owners. I had to chuckle when people post "ISIS wants you to fear refugees! It means they're winning!". Gee, do you think the .gov may use those same tactics with gunowners?

Things are so messed up I'm not even sure they can be self-serving anymore. This is a huge risk and requires Hick to bet his legacy/future. If something happens it would offset any positives he, or Liberals, think he has done.

And it gets to a point where the local media can't even cover for him anymore. I'm noticing that 9 news took down comments on the story. They're trying really hard, but if people end up dead, they won't be able to hide that.

So I am curious here... Are they using these same or even remotely similar background checks that they use on 99% of all the nutcases that do the mass shootings lately? These guys all passed a background check to get their guns and once they got their approved guns went and killed a bunch of people. Now they expect us to believe the gov can vet refugees coming from Syria that have no paperwork at all?

It is just a matter of time before we get a Paris style attack here in the stats... When it happens, I just hope it lands right in the lap of someone like Hickenlooper. At least I am pretty confident they won't be coming to my street as some liberal area will be their most likely target so they can get the largest body count.

Not to the same scale, but they have happened. But here they're are called "workplace violence" or "mental illness".

If/when something at this scale happens again, it will never land at the lap of our "leaders". It will be explained away as something completely unrelated.
