The low penalty of $300 and 30 days in jail was the only way to get this passed. Now other legislators can use this cap for their feathers and increase the penalties. Not that it will matter much, if prosecutors don't bother.

I carry a million dollar umbrella policy, and occasionally I carry a Colt 1911. The policy was intended to extra coverage on cargo in leased trucks. The Colt is generally intended to protect the cargo from being declared in a claim.
To further insure that those with criminal intent might consider the truck, its cargo, and the driver protected, it is important to wear the Colt exposed. No CCW is necessary. The $1M policy wasn't intended to cover the injuries of an attacker, but in Gun-Shy Shopper's world (and probably a bunch of lawyer) it might.

What is a black police officer seeking? Retribution in class warfare? Why be a cop to make a better world?
Mama's don't let their babies grow up to be cops. Let them be doctors and lawyers.
But of course if they're not smart enough, encourage them be cops or go to war.

an awful lot of whining to lead up to say:
"The city plans to build a new tennis complex northeast of the pond near the rec center and it will come with between 50 and 60 nearby parking spaces."

There was a hoar frost and rime ice accumulation during a rather freakish storm in the FL panhandle in the late 90s. Thousand of trees were seriously damaged, mostly fruit trees. But it did look beautiful for a few hours.

Seriously (2 decades)?
I own a tent and at least two high quality sleeping bags bought there. A fine assortment of fanny packs, and a couple of 'old timer' folding knives.
The Long's understood to support the fire fighting community by way of a discount, if you knew to show your state issued wildland red card (nothing to do with MJ).
Note that the Long's are not closing their Glenwood store, in the heart of the state and climbing country.

If you're not an outdoorsy person (SBGM?) then losing the Army Store won't be something you'll miss. For the rest of us ... we will

Oddly enough there was someone on our roof (a business) on Friday night while there were two people inside the building. We believe that person was trying to gain entry through a swamp cooler. One of the neighboring buildings has a staircase leading to its roof, and easy access to ours and another business.
This case can't be closed, because no report was taken.
A few weeks ago a guy tried to enter a business through the roof and ended up stuck in a wall for three days. Not a lot of investigating done there either. If the culprit hadn't been trapped on the premises, then that case would also have been closed.

The cell phone argument is a failure. CU PD lives in reality, not TV (NCIS, CSI, Agents of Shield)
Triangulating the location of a cell phone takes time and a warrant. A blue light phone's location is known.
