Boulder Climate Change is Real by Jann Scott
Jul 10th
Today I talk about the floods in Texas and how Climate change affects Boulder. https://www.youtube.com/live/TBu9QPEK0-4?si=dmRUGBPzEowW9Fla
NOAA Layoffs: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has been a focal point of these layoffs, with numerous employees, including those in probationary status, being terminated. Some reports indicate that these terminations were abrupt, with little to no warning or severance. Other Federal Agencies: Layoffs aren’t limited to NOAA. The U.S. Forest Service, the National Park Service, and other agencies with a presence in Boulder have also been impacted. Federally-Funded Labs: Boulder County has numerous federally funded research labs, and these institutions have also seen job losses. Impact on Boulder: The layoffs have had a significant impact on Boulder’s economy and the lives of those affected. Many workers have expressed concerns about job security and the future of their careers. Protests: The layoffs have sparked protests in Boulder, with hundreds of people demonstrating against the cuts to the federal workforce. https://youtu.be/TBu9QPEK0-4
Michael Dougherty answers my question about Alyssa Conviction
Sep 24th
Michael:
I do have a few questions that I don’t think were addressed… and people have been talking about on various forums.
Why was a criminal conviction important?
Isn’t it just the same as spending his life in a mental institution?
To me these kinds shootings pretty much have to be insane to do what Alissa did. For that matter all mass shooters of this type?
What will happen to Alissa now?
Will he be sent to a secret secure lo location same as James Holmes?
ANSWERS
FROM BOULDER DA
“With this guilty verdict and sentence, justice was done for the victims, their loved ones, and this community. The judge imposed a sentence of ten consecutive life terms, plus an additional 1,334 years. That sentence reflects the devastation that this defendant inflicted upon our community, after two months of planning and preparation.
A mass shooting is the ultimate act of cowardice and terror. This day was long in coming; I am very grateful that this defendant is being held fully accountable. It has been an honor to work on behalf of the victims and this community, alongside a truly outstanding team.
The defendant has been transferred to the Colorado Department of Corrections.
Boulder shut down Homeless overflow shelters. People dying!
Mar 31st
Council Dearest,
( I notice yawl respond to me when I write to you individually and not as a group so)
this addictions recovery center has 30 beds but it is empty! It could be used for overflow for addicts and alcoholics who sleep on street.
What happened to overflow shelter for the homeless. ? There is none. There used to be. I used to take people there.
Its gone! City of boulder closed overflow shelter
I was informed last night by the Boulder Homeless shelter that there is no overflow shelter anymore and I would have to take people to Denver rescue Mission. what ?
what? the hell is this. ?? No wonder you have people camping all over the city.
Whose brilliant idea was it to cancel overflow beds for the homeless. ?
you need to get it back!
I worked really hard to make it happen so people would have a place to go. The shelter won’t let you in if you come after 7:00pm even if they have room and they had room last night . that’s bullshit. So the person freezes to death on our streets. C’mon council!
You know, I started

Boulder Cares in 1997 with a Ford bronco and some homeless guys who I mentored. We would go out each night, give out hot soup and blankets, plus transport. Sheriff Epp saw me doing it one night and asked what we were up to. so he decided to make it official, donated a jeep and crew and the /shelter took it over. I suppose that is dead now too? c’mon!
I used to run the night shift at the ARC. I still volunteer there. The ARC has 30 beds but they are always empty now. A contractor runs ARC and they dont give a damn. But BUT, the ARC is a perfect wet shelter for people who are on drugs or alcohol. they could go there every night to get out of the cold…. If only You council would get together with the sheriff and the Commissioners and make t happen.
Let’s go!!
