Longmont Times-Call : Colorado Supreme Court affirms lower court rulings on medical pot - Longmont Times-Call

Unfair residuals ;) As one comedian said, I'm still waiting for my acid flashbacks from when I was a teenager that never materialized for him, or likely anyone else. You must have had a highly mechanical, tech, or such job, or maybe security, where a very clear mind had to be maintained. What about people with insomnia, that can be pretty dangerous as well.

This is bogus, make it legit by making it apply to alcohol & Big Pharma ingestion on personal time as well.

Five sex assaults in the city in a 2-week period? This seems a lot for Longmont, is this usual?

Karma's a b*tch. Now these kids (yeah okay, horrible rotten bad kids, but at 18, still kids) have gotten a taste of the tragedy they wrought, and a view into the rest of their lives, possibly. What a sad waste of possibility.

This is tragic. How is it that people can end up so stupid, without a thought about a consequence and the rest of their lives? Are there parents? Are they useless? I just don't get it.

A web subscription is needed to get the full story, why not just give it here? Why would we want a subscription to the Greeley Tribune? Aside from that, I hope these idiots choke on a hamburger. What will their punishment be?

NYT & WaPo hardly qualify as liberal, much as the right claims they are.

I do wonder where you get your information. " The Republican State Leadership Committee, a Washington-based political group dedicated to electing state officeholders, recently issued a progress report on Redmap, its multiyear plan to influence redistricting. The $30 million strategy consists of two steps for tilting the playing field: take over state legislatures before the decennial Census, then redraw state and Congressional districts to lock in partisan advantages. The plan was highly successful." "Both sides may do it, but one side does it more often." "Third, gerrymandering is a major form of disenfranchisement." And we know the party that's all for voter disenfranchisement. "Politicians, especially Republicans facing demographic and ideological changes in the electorate, use redistricting to cling to power. It’s up to us to take control of the process, slay the gerrymander, and put the people back in charge of what is, after all, our House." http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/03/opinion/sunday/... and http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/harold-mey...

Agree with both of you. It's not a slam dunk, ever, in politics. So we should work for Udall and against Gardner. Gerrymandering got most of the Tea Partiers into office. It is criminal the lengths that were gone to, to gerrymander districts throughout the US. Outright bs. It has been an issue with me to get Gardner out ever since I learned what he was about.

I agree, if he's a Tea Party candidate, that automatically makes him an extremist. They have caused Congress to become inert, ineffectual, impotent. And the worst do-nothing Congress of all time. Gardner is not fit to be Colorado's senator.

Did he really (got wifey a job as a lobbyist)? Not surprising at all, but I wasn't aware. I do know he has no compassion for animals as he voted to allow horse slaughter. Jerk.

Good, this is a great opportunity to clear the deck of do-nothing Gardner all together! He has done one positive thing in the last 6 months or so, but I can't remember what it was. Other than that, he's been pretty much useless.

Um, no, where did you get that from? Though I don't doubt that the Sierra Club and Food & Water Watch have experts--just because they don't agree with you doesn't make them amateurs. The current iteration of fracking is new in the past several years, not the same as its been done for 40 years--you know that. And this is what you, geoknowledge, said up top: " geoknowledge · 1 day ago Drilling rigs and completions crews work 24 hours/day, 7 days a week. Locations are lit up at night for safety purposes."

It's all in the perspective. And of course experts can be biased, that's not unusual at all. What sways me is the devastating possibilities when accidents occur, or the evidence over time that shows the sickening of humans, animals, water, the environment, and the air. Even the constant light and noise of an operation. It is very hard, if not impossible, to turn back the clock once those things happen. As the old campaign used to say, Love your Mother (Earth).

I did not say they were lies, only biased. Certainly envelopes must be pushed, but all too often the risks associated with taking resources from the earth are exacerbated by cut corners and carelessness, the former for the bottom line, the latter due to human nature.
