    When I heard the City's Attorney ask not to be laughed at, I knew it was going downhill.

    Some background on newbie Councilwoman Grano (per her campaign website):

    I am the mother of two young boys, Ryder and Treker, both of whom help inform my vision for the future of our community. I moved to Boulder 11 years ago after completing my degree in Political Science at The College of William & Mary. I quickly fell in love with Boulder's natural beauty, creative spirit and commitment to the environment. My first year here I taught civics at The Watershed School where I engaged with my students in community issues and volunteered with Meals on Wheels. Later, I joined the Board of New Era Colorado where I served for five years registering voters, fighting for marriage equality and campaigning for Local Power. Through New Era I helped launch a campaign to reduce disposable bags. That campaign resulted in our bag fee ordinance, which has prevented thousands of bags from entering our landfill.

    My family has been in Boulder and/or Boulder County since 1954. I really don't appreciate some progressive do-gooder who just moved here and knows how to work the social circles targeting my family's lifestyle.

    Back in 2012 when the elected officials were openly ignoring everyone speaking their opinions (what's her face was just browsing her tablet the whole time from what I remember). It'd be interesting to occasionally ask board members to recap some points made by citizens to put them on the spot if they are paying attention or not.

    Of course they are! The ruling class doesn't give a shit what the peasants think unless it's an election year AND they are in a close race. Otherwise your opinion, facts and logic don't matter.

    A buddy is there and texted me that he feels there is some very good representation there on our side.
    Hope it makes a difference this go around.
    After going through the magazine goat fuck in 2012 I had no desire to sit through another one.

    A lot of self proclaimed liberals, liberal gun club members and even a LGBQ gun club member standing up for their rights. So far the antis are just reading letters sent in by victims of shootings, no actual statements of their own.

    Default Boulder residents.. Boulder gun ban council meeting next Thursday..

    Saw this on another forum. He makes very good points and nails it as to how I feel every time there is a shooting. Too bad he could not be a speaker in Boulder next week.
