Jann Scott’s Journal is the story and life of Boulder Icon and talk host Jann Scott. He has been in print, on radio and on TV in Boulder since 1989. Some consider him the voice of Boulder’s soul.
He is Pope Francis the first formerly Argentine Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio was elected by his
Jann Scott in Boulder.
peers Wednesday evening as the new pope, becoming the first pontiff from the Americas. He is named after St Francis of Assisi who is my favorite saint known for talking with animals and helping the poor. I try to model my deep spiritual life after him which is to say I personally try to help the poor every day by feeding them, giving them jobs. With animals I have many bird feeders and talk to the cats and have them leave the birds alone which seems to work. I have a statue of st. Francis in my back yard and some religious metals of him which Fr. Breslin has blessed. I often give those to people who need a lift up. So I have much hope for our new Pope and look for a resurgence of the Catholic faith. And yes by the way I am Catholic, a christian, a believer and I follow Jesus who I determined that he is the biggest baddest Guru in Boulder….. even though he’s dead…. well not dead … he lives with the father in heaven which I also believe in. As well as the holy trinity… you know father son holy spirit. I also believe in angels and that I have a guardian angel. I have seen angels over Boulder. Yep I talk to Jesus and he answers. I talk to God the Father and he answers me in prayer. God also intervenes into my life when I need help, I ask and he answers. So it is all good. That is to say God is all good. Jesus is all good and the holy spirit is all good. Me? I am just a human with big failings and need all the help I can get. Thankfully I have been saved by the holy see and I know what’s up so to speak.
The DOPE scene in Boulder is another matter. It is straight out of the pit of hell and abounds with no controls. I see it first hand since I volunteer with drug addicts every day also. Drug addiction in Boulder is getting worse not better. There is very little drug treatment and while the city of Boulder ponders unleashing another barrage of addicting drugs on our youth I wonder ” are they fricking serious?”

I can’t believe the city of Boulder “could possibly be so obtuse ” to try to get an Order of Protection (restraining order) on Seth Brigham. Their last go around with him cost us the tax payer $10,000. This one will cost me and you more. The Boulder Police department wants not part of this or they would have charged him with misdemeanor harassment. Even so the city has ordered a<a href=”http://c1n.tv/capt-underpants-restrained-boulder-cop-stalks-cu-kid-goes-to-st-penn/attachment/1437/” rel=”attachment wp-att-1437″><img title=”08″ src=”http://c1n.tv/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/08-300×225.jpg” width=”300″ height=”225″ /></a> police officer to be at every council meeting to keep Brigham at bay. The cops interfered with Seths’ free speech just once and it cost the city ten grand. They are not likely to do it again. So now the city is trying to get a permanent restraining order in civil county court. But the rules of first amendment free speech still apply. They apply to the city and to city staff and council members more than they apply to a private citizen.
In fact the city council chambers are the most protected space fro free speech in the land except for the court house lawn which is even more protected free speech. Legally, Brigham cannot be banned from speaking at city council meetings. He cannot be banned from emailing council members and he cannot be banned from writing about them, calling them or trying to talk to them.
This situation will bring out every constitutional attorney in Colorado to defend Seth. In the past The city of Boulders own attorney Ariel Calonne spelled this out in detail to both me and my civil rights attorney David Lane. Lane happens to be Seths attorney as well. This all started with Seth when the fascist dictates of the council barred Seth from speaking on public access TV. Seth has not forgotten and they are all paying for their sins now. Every issue surrounding this case is purely first amendment. It is all constitutional. It is all about the public’s right to know.
In this case the council really deserves Seth and they really deserved to be slapped with a heavy law suit and a reprimand by me. “What the fuck are idiots trying now??”
<strong>Meanwhile, back at the Boulder Police department</strong> , they are having their own troubles. Seems a head injured officer went nuts and tried to kill his ex-girlfriend and her knew boyfriend. The officer was injured several years ago trying to arrest a drunk in the Sink who was refusing to pay a bar tab. The officer had been on leave with pay when his stalking and attempted murder charges were filed just 3 days before Seths.
<strong>To make all of this more interesting</strong>, in the very same week a Judge sentenced the college kid who injured the officer to two years in the State penitentiary. won’t that be fun for him.
