Illegal immigration and a liberal mayor are like gasoline and matches.

Now that Sean Petyon has taken the head coaching job, I think the Broncos will be just fine.

Casa Bonita shut down, ending Denver’s restaurant advantage. I see rumors of it reopening this year, however.

Perhaps it was the “rocky Mountain high” that turned it into the “rocky Mountain hellhole”? While not true for everyone, most pot smokers STILL do not realize why it’s called “dope” and if “you are what you eat” then the same applies to what you smoke. Just sayin!.

This is perfectly correct. My daughter moved out there 6 years ago. every year i visit i notice the deterioratuion.

Living fairly close to the state of Colorado, I have always appreciated the wonderful scenery & certain tourist attractions they have had to offer. Now, with the group they have running the state, I am not wanting to even cross the border for many reasons,personal safety being one of them. I wouldn’t advise anyone to live there, even if their job would require it.

John Denver would still love it. He was a screaming lib. and his “rocky mountain high” - legalized marijuana - has accelerated the decline

I lived in Denver for nearly 50 years, from 1965 until 2012, attended four different parochial schools, graduated from MSCD; it truly was a great place to grow up. Started to turn sour, coincidentally, right about the time Clinton took office: `homeless` everywhere, drugs, illegals taking over, leftist politicians flourishing; the same sad story we see all over America. Someone truly should hang for what they’ve done to this nation. The left truly does destroy everything it touches!

In a democracy or republic, people get the government, policies, and outcomes they vote for, and deserve.

Ah, but we are no longer living in a democracy or a republic, as evidenced by the 2020 and 2022 elections. We don't vote for anything anymore. We cast real votes, and they pretend to count those votes.

The key to the demise of dirty Denver is demonicrats. Drugs, legalized distruction of Capitol Hill, and legalized theft have held Denver open to become a slum.

[Cowgirl of Justice]

This is the democrats plan: To destroy each city and make them drug havens and crime ridden hellholes to punish Americans for being American. To destroy children, make THEM hate America by indoctrinating them in school and to create a cesspool of children to rape and traffic.

Democrat run, Democrat ruined.
And since “they” keep proposing legal injection sites, they’re trying to duplicate Vancouver (which since I’ve been there, is proof that there are real and scary walking zombies.) Denver is close to Vancouver south.
Democrats, they could ruin a pot of gold, and in the case of Denver, they have.

One word explains Denver. And all of Colorado.

Two words actually.

Legal marijuana.

And the PSTUPID people elected an OPENLY GAY GOVERNOR !

Henry Deutschendorf... never really cared for the strumming minstrel.

Never really really cared for Lightfoot either, much after 1973 or so but Lightfoot had Red Shea, Paul Wideman and later John Stockfish backing him up and those three made that Lightfoot sound.

The destruction of Denver: 100% weed and witches.

Last time I was there I was afraid to walk the streets of downtown. Buncha lowlifes wearing black hassled me many times. It is Antifa land.

Too dangerous for me.

[Ignatz]

Get outta Denver, baby, go-go-go!

[dware]

What would John Denver think of his namesake now? Would he still, “See it rainin’ fire in the sky, the shadow from the starlight softer than a lullaby”?

Still the case on the Western Slope of Colorado.
