Media blows it all out of proportion and the ACLU steps into it without really knowing what happened.
Just WAIT 35 days:
They will be blaring these stories 24/7.
They will be constant.
“The video clip that you just ran was actually three individuals who were protesting and setting up camp in front of city hall. And after the police asked them to move, they did not, they were cited and their equipment was taken as evidence.”
Seems reasonable to me. Poor timing on part of the protesters.
Take away a dog’s doghouse in that weather and you’d get charged with animal cruelty.
Media created outrage “news”
Fake news from see-BS, Denver
Were they using SF rules where the homeless are required to have ID and proof of residence to be considered homeless. Maybe the reporter just rushed to judgment.
I live in Denver and my travels take me past those blanket tent people near the Salvation Army District just about every day. They were chased away from one set of sidewalks and their blankets were taken away. They just moved across the street and had more blankets and tents on another sidewalk. Then their tents were taken away again. There is a place called step 13 right around the corner: sobriety and work, work and sobriety. They will not go to Step 13. And the Denver Government will not invite the Step 13 leaders to any of the homelessness meetings. By taking away the blankets, the Police are forcing the bums to leave town or go inside to a shelter. Denver has the best free stuff for bums in the entire country. Bums from all over the USA are flocking to Denver for the goods and services. It is an absolutely huge governmental quagmire with massive sums of money for the governmental supervisors who run the programs. And the governmental programs are not concerned with sobriety or work. Just with lots of money for the administrators.
I lived in Denver, there are many shelters for the Homeless, so for anyone to be out in that weather is hard to imagine...
People that work for these shelters go out and pick up people and take them back for hot food, blankets and a cot to sleep on...
I bet this was ‘staged’ for that to happened...Denver is one of the biggest ‘homeless shelter’ cities around...
During the Utah Olympics, Mitt Romney had the homeless taken to Denver to get them off the streets here in Utah...
lemme guess- they only took blankets away from black homeless folks and not the white ones?
