Anti-Fracking Rally Cancelled Following Low Turnout ( Colorado )
Energy in Depth ^ | February 3, 2015 | Aileen Yeung

A national activist group – which used Tom Steyer’s Colorado political firm to lobby the state’s oil and gas task force – cancelled an anti-fracking rally today after just one person RSVPed. The decision to abandon the rally followed very low turnout at a protest yesterday outside the Colorado Convention Center, where the task force has been meeting the past two days.

At yesterday’s demonstration, there were more protest signs than there were protestors to hold them. Clean Water Action Colorado’s Facebook page for the rally mentions how the group “has turned out impacted and frustrated Coloradans for rallies at every task force meeting” and tells folks to “Come and See the impact we’ve made.”

Clean Water Action Colorado cancelled the second rally it had planned for today’s task force meeting after only one person – the group’s State Director – RSVPed yes for the event.

This is why legalization of pot should be allowed. More stoned liberals = less voting liberals. :D

“Anti-Fracking Rally Cancelled Following Low Turnout”

One protester, as he left, was quoting as saying, “Well, frack it. I’m going home.”
