Acting like he's three and mom said "no cookies until after dinner".

(154 posts)Why should an insurrectionist be given preferential treatment? Let the courts (slowly) decide if she should be released early with "time served." You can bet that a newly discovered and completely innocent inmate would still be sitting in prison, waiting on justice to move at a snail's pace.
As for the Governor's stunt, he should own his actions. He has freedom of speech. He is also subject to the consequences of his words and deeds. If you give insurrectionists an inch, then they will be part of a successful coup next time.

(416 posts)Hes a 🤡 and been one for so long. Many Coloradans regret voting for him just like I do. We have to do a better job vetting candidates because he has and always been a rich libertarian that for the most part doesnt share our values. He used the party and platform to win but his actions during the pandemic told me all that I needed to know about him.

(30,262 posts)he's a Jewish gay man, married with children, in a state that's home to Focus on the Family among a slew of other conservative/religious groups. Who knows what kind of death threats or other harassment he and his family were getting. But this is doubled-down trolling. No more benefit of the doubt, Polis. I regret voting for you when I lived in Colorado.
