Gonna be a mess - got an excuse to agitate

I have to give them credit for at least doing that. The other cities have gone full support on the stupid.

Based on this part of the story. Giving them credit, for something, as mentioned, they'll slide in to some education, or homeless shelter bill. Yeah good luck



The biggest concern raised by fellow council members was the timing, and that they felt there needed to be more time to deliver a thoughtful proposal.

?I want to always ensure that my constituents have the time to throuroughly understand what this means,? Council President Stacie Gilmore said when explaining her ?no? vote.

In an interview ahead of the vote, CdeBaca said she would not be surprised if her colleagues voted against the idea, and that she believed it would be a decision left to the people.

?If this is doesn?t pass tonight it will be coming to the ballot sometime regardless because citizens can get things on the ballot,? she said.

There's no majority of citizens wanting to get rid of policing. There are some nuts, but they thankfully aren't in the majority.

Really nice of Aurora PD to advise businesses along Colfax of the impending “peaceful protests” coming this weekend. Things like installing grates over windows, boarding them up, having plans for their employees to evacuate safely, cloud storage for their video surveillance.

I’m sure the new chief has things well in hand......or not

Looks like protest cancelled by Elijah McClain's mother.

Injecting people with ketamine on the streets? Surely you can just restrain them with handcuffs, etc. Without a toxicology report, administration of ketamine is reckless. Aurora paramedics killed that guy. At the very least this is medical malpractice, at the worst this is simply murder.

CDPHE is worthless. With the COVID-19 pandemic, injecting ketamine into those that are infected could cause serious breathing problems. Not to mention the neurologic symptoms typical of COVID-19.

The kid's behavior got him killed as much as anything else.

Good on her for recognizing that her son's death was being used as an excuse to do things contrary to the memory of her son.

still will not stop them, from wreaking havoc


The mom is saying what a lot of othe POC's have been saying. Their message has been co opted by people more interested in causing damage and violence. Than actually seeking reform.

[Doc45]

Yes, the concern is the protests are still going forward even with his mother saying she has cancelled her event.

Appears that Aurora PD has issued an "Advisory" to businesses along Colfax for the weekend regarding potential looting as in board up your windows, remove valuables beforehand etc.
