When is the Mayor going to resign? He's gotta take a pretty big share of the blame for this in more ways than one.

I couldn't get the link to come up. Why was he providing security for a baptism? Maybe just my church, but we never have any problems during them.

I'm not counting on it since he won't even toss the sanctuary policy.

John Hickenlooper's share of the Ownership was placed in a trust fund and he has nothing to do with the management of the restaurant the Denver Cherry Cricket

Am I safe in assuming that this was not carried on Mexican TV?

My wife and daughter went to a child's birthday party for a family that came from south of the border. The child was about 6.

There was a keg.

Resign? He is a Democrat. Such an action would go against his very core.

It was for the party afterwards. I work that kind of stuff frequently and it's usually something to do with insurance requirements for the banquet hall.

did they catch the killer yet? Last I heard his car was found in "an unincorporated part of Los Angeles south of the city". ...well that certainly narrows it down...

If he's in L.A. they'll never find him. L.A. is also a "sanctuary city" for Mexicans.

Was driving North out of town this morning and noticed a huge procession of cruisers heading into town. It was impressive.

Heard on the radio that they were from surrounding cities and counties and were headed to the funeral.

Are you sure? I don't know if it is true but here is what is being reported on Michelle Malkin's Blog (you need to scroll down quite a ways.

"For your information, it is being put out by Mayor Hickenlooper supporters that the Mayor turned over control of his restaurants to a "blind trust". This is untrue. The Mayor handpicked three people to act as "proxies" for him. They have his power of attorney and operate his restaurants on a day-to-day basis. The mayor attends quarterly company meetings and still signs company papers."

It sounds like he is not involved in daily management but is still involved as an executive. As such he still has legal responsibilities.

I'm sure he's in Mexico by now. He'll never be brought to justice.

I'm sure that's what he'll argue. Sometimes it's not that easy though.
