You , sir, were the only one who continued to speak or more accurately shout after being so advised. Shame on you!

D. give it's officers with respect to the ethical and lawful behavior expected of them including behavior that although lawful might give the appearance of impropriety? Could you tell us about that Chief Beckner instead of simply "reacting" to each unfortunate episode after it unfolds.

Of all the comments on this topic you completely get it and articulate it perfectly. While the police chief isn't responsible for any one improper/criminal act of his subordinates he is responsible for the climate/culture that has permitted them to flourish. Simply being reactive as each new event unfolds isn't what leadership is about.

Fri, 11 Jan 2013 04:42:01 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/news/boulder/ci_22348725/boulder-da-no-decision-this-week-charges-against#IDComment541102473 http://www.dailycamera.com/news/boulder/ci_22348725/boulder-da-no-decision-this-week-charges-against#IDComment541099693 There have been several acts of misconduct/crimes by Boulder police officers reported in the Camera within the past year. It seems that the police Chief is always "reactive" to these incidents. What has he done via training, etc. to be "proactive" in curtailing this behavior. Is it not fair to expect him to be accountable for his department? Fri, 11 Jan 2013 04:36:31 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/news/boulder/ci_22348725/boulder-da-no-decision-this-week-charges-against#IDComment541099693 http://www.dailycamera.com/ci_22340098#IDComment541089956 I am concerned that the proper tone of what is not acceptable behavior for Boulder police officers is not being set at the Chief's level. Hence, the slew of bad/criminal behavior that we have seen in the past year. At what point is it appropriate to hold him accountable? Fri, 11 Jan 2013 04:17:33 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/ci_22340098#IDComment541089956 http://www.dailycamera.com/news/boulder/ci_22317240/boulder-police-deal-wave-misconduct#IDComment536801639 You are absolutely right Imaginary friend. Too many outrageous acts over too shortf a period of time in what is a relatively small police force. The tone for ethical , professional and above reproach behavior should be set at the top. Just being reactive is not good enough. It's time for the City Council to search for a replacement at the top.

I wonder if there will be as many comments when the news article is about someone who is killed on the road by a driver high on LAWFUL pot. Move over alcohol!

You're more concerned with the drunk. I'm more concerned with the rest of us who just want to go on with our and our loved ones' lives.

While the center has not been closed that entire time, the lack of locker/shower facilities has rendered it useless to most people who come to exercise. For those of us who live near the EBRC it has been inconvenient to access the other Rec. Centers in town. Parks and Rec. should step up and figure out some way to fairly compensate annual members and others for this lengthy inconvenience!

But not in the public square, where there is police security at council meetings and a basic right to be heard by elected representatives exists.
