County steps up meeting security

Comissioners cite "mob" during fracking hearing.

The Boulder County Comissioners were so taken aback by the conduct of anti-fracking protesters during a hearing Tuesday that that have announced a new security plan.

The plan [...] calls for [...] the prosecution of people who threaten the safety of others at meetings.

KEYWORDS: fracking; meetings; threats
In point of fact the protesters directly and personally threatened the Commissioners during the meeting.

All of the Commissioners are very progressive Democrats who support "renewable" engergy programs and "municipalization" of the Boulder city electrical system. They are proposing a scheme of impact fees and other regulations that will make it economically unfeasible to develop oil fields in Boulder County.

There simply would not be any fracking operations in Boulder County if the Commissioners followed their natural inclinations.

So why do the Leftists escalate to personal threats of violence against their supposed allies? The Democrats won all of the elections. Appearently, winning is not enough.

Two of the three Commissioners are rumored to carry concealed weapons, as well as a number of City Council members of Boulder and adjacent cities.

It seems like a reasonable plan.

Sort of like San Fransicko saying arrests aren’t the answer to crime? Arrests down as crime skyrockets.

Taken aback?

This is what you people DO.

ANY deviation from your progressive, anti-America, anti-human dogma is met with intolerance and violence.
