Unless CNBC prints itself out and privately hand-delivers itself to each and every customer, they are beneficiaries of public airwaves.

That does seem messy. Much easier to curate an audience that can be relied upon to behave properly.

Networks use our public airwaves for free. Two or three times a decade they are supposed to give back and cover the presidential elections in a meaningful way. Excluding an actual audience (who would have actual, spontaneous reactions) from attending the debate is "changing the truth."

Fliers reacting to this in one way or another were everywhere, generally with Trump's face on them, some of these with horns drawn onto Trump's head. Then there was this--overheard as I simply walked through the Shakespeare Garden: one girl says to her friend, "Donald Trump will make a GREAT president!" Every student around them laughed out loud, and one of them called out, "Donald Trump doesn't have a chance in hell!" More laughter ensued. If anything, this decision has ensured that millennials now equate the GOP with Donald Trump, and for most of them, that's not a good thing. It's a joke.

Spectacular moment.

What a joke that list of "threats" is. It reads like an Onion article. I'm no fan of the Nazis, but enjoying movies, video games and history fails to mark someone as threat to school, and are obviously not arrestable offenses. What were these adults thinking?

I have a much different take on that Facebook post. I actually find it disturbing and chilling. He has entirely shifted the blame from himself to LSD. A big question I have is, is the guy who gave him the LSD still in jail? Who was on trial for murder here, Spencer Crawford or LSD? Possibly even more disturbing are some of Spencer's friends' reactions to his post on Facebook: "Super well written! I enjoyed reading!" "You are unbelievably profound," "you are amazing!" "Thank you for sharing" "eloquently written," and many others that seem to be compartmentalizing quite a bit of this violent event. Most people aren't able to use the "I mindlessly ingested mass amounts of drugs" excuse to lessen the charges when they stab someone, unprovoked, in the heart. Especially after disarming them first. I'm glad that Spencer feels some remorse, but I wish it were for murdering his friend, rather than for taking acid.

It is infuriating and heartbreaking to think this was intentional.

Absolutely amazing.

They make early morning and getting out to school and work so fun. Sometimes when the balloons fly close overhead I tease my littlest son that today, they sent a hot air balloon instead of the school bus! He laughs so hard. Being annoyed by hot air balloons is like being annoyed by sunshine, puffy clouds and rainbows. My dog is afraid of fireworks, but that doesn't mean we should cancel Fourth of July.

"They feel extremely paranoid, and they think everyone in the world is coming to get them and attacking them, and every moving shadow or object is basically looking at them or out to get them." ---------------- So, they already knew this going into the situation, yet they proceeded to act completely surprised when the victim acted erratically. There has to be a better tactic for confronting someone who we know is out of their mind, than simply advancing and then shooting when the subject gets spooked. I know the kid had already hurt people, but the protocol seemed to set the suspect up for fatal failure.

Shooting at people seems like a dramatic and inefficient way to subdue them, anyway. Not to mention cruel and unconstitutional. This isn't the dark ages.

But I really respected his commitment to his beliefs. He will be missed. Rest in peace.

They are no less motivated to pass my class than any other student. They generally come across as hard workers with ambition, and though I do fail students who fail to perform in class, I've never had to fail a member of the football team. Their coaches are in touch with the profs, and these kids are required to stay in good standing in the classroom.

Will reality ever set back in to Boulder? Wed, 15 Jul 2015 14:04:28 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/news/boulder/ci_28485481/boulder-voters-may-see-head-tax-offset-job#IDComment985013060
