Colorado Springs is a dumping ground for the state (Denver) of meth heads, pedophiles, etc. because of all the charity here presumably - large population center, government resources and its not Denver, Boulder, Aspen, or other places the limo libs live.
Very strong conservative town. The looting was some various and assorted low-lifes.
The fact that there were over 32,000 people evacuated and the local cops can keep a running count of how many houses were looted is an indicator. Imagine if this had been a major city with thousands of unattended houses for the picking....two dozen houses? That’s pretty good. I acknowledge there will be more.
I’m not trying to minimize the impact on those affected, but that’s a pretty small number given the monstrosity of the disaster.
Also, the Sheriff is highly respected here and his deputies seem to be a pretty good bunch with a couple notable exceptions. The emergency responders from the city, county, state and out-of-state folks (including DOD) have been amazing throughout all of this and deserve our respect and admiration.
As a sidenote, both the DA (Dan May) and the El Paso County Sheriff (Terry Maketa) had to evacuate so they have a vested interest in protecting the empty neighborhoods. Both are staunch RKBA advocates and defenders.
Your in Georgia and you know more about this than others do who seem to have all of the answers . Appreciate it . You have more patience with them than I do .
