Homeless Flock To Denver DNC Convention

Elective Decisions ^ | 07/20/08 | Chris Davis

Denver—With the Democratic National Convention approaching, it appears that Denver will stop at nothing to get the homeless off the streets during the convention. The actions have created a swarm of homeless to descend upon the city.

Some of the ideas being floated by Denver city officials include sending the homeless to the movies, to the zoo, and even sequestering them in local homeless shelters.

SATIRE

Satire ping!

[ncfool]

I would be happy to buy them a bus ticket on the GRAYDOG from Kansas City...

This is the time and Barack is the Messiah for all ages.

Linda Stiles, a drifter for many years, has heard the rumors. “Did Mayor Hickenlooper say that there were NO homeless people in Denver? Well, me and plenty of my friends are about to change that! He needs to see real homeless people up close. Warm up the veggies (I think she meant popcorn) and TV - we’re comin’ in! Denver in August? Who needs a shelter?”

Satire, but wouldn’t it be great. Maybe BHO could fill the stadium with all the drifters. I think they have the wrong idea. Fill the Mile High Stadium, not the movie theatres, and then they won’t have to use trick photography.

[writer33]

I say they ship them to Pac Bell Park and let them find their way back. :-)

[writer33]

No. No popcorn. It has transfats. Definitely veggies.

:-)

If you send the homeless to the zoo, will they throw feces at the monkeys?

[Zman516]

I’m hoping the Looper can organize a “running of the bums”.

[ConservativeMan55]

LOL

[writer33]

If you send the homeless to the zoo, will they throw feces at the monkeys?

Maybe, but it would be a show.

[writer33]

Good idea.

When the libs had their convention in SF, DiFi who was then the Mayor gave the homeless food vouchers, bus vouchers and other goodies to disappear for a few days. Vagrants came from all over the west coast to cash in on the goodie bags.

[Libloather]

Will the homeless have to register - even if they do own a hand gun?

Got any pics?

[weegee]

Whatever the Left wants to call it, they are establishing gulags for undesirables. Temporary ghettos to keep them out of the public eye.

[writer33]

Excellent question, L. But how would they determine residence?

[writer33]

These wouldn’t be Soviet-Era Gulags, would it?

:-)

[SierraWasp]

This has to be one of your most truncated essays, right?

[Libloather]

But how would they determine residence?

In my own case, if I consume, I basically reside.

From the web about Colorado -

Carrying:
It is unlawful to carry a firearm concealed on or about one's person without a permit, except for a person in their dwelling, place of business, or on property owned or controlled by him or her.

A permit is not required to carry a handgun where carrying firearms is legal, if the handgun is not concealed.

A handgun is not considered concealed if it is in the possession of a person who is in a private automobile or other private means of conveyance who is carrying it for a legal use, or the handgun is in the possession of a person who is legally engaged in hunting activities within the state.

Exempt from the requirement of a permit to carry a concealed handgun are peace officers (active and retired) of Colorado, probation officers, law enforcement officers employed by jurisdiction outside the state, so long as the employing jurisdiction exempts peace officers employed by jurisdictions within Colorado from any concealed weapons laws in effect in those jurisdictions.

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

...your most truncated essays...

You crackin' on Republicans? (Maybe the worst place to do it - eh?)

[writer33]

You have to click the link. You even get a couple of pictures to look at while reading for no charge. It’s a bonus.

:-)

[GoShow]

OMG send the lousy vagrants to Boulder -

[Baynative]

It was 20+ years ago. Besides, the last thing I’d have wasted film on back then was grubby street vermin.

[writer33]

Nope. Sierra Wasp was being facetious.

[writer33]

Boulder sounds good to me.

[writer33]

I guess the law covers it. Thanks for posting, L. All questions are now answered.

[AZLiberty]

Might be a good time to vacation in Denver. Free accommodations, free food, free entertainment. Maybe a few thousand Freepers should head up there.

Lacking a home (in Denver at least), we would be homeless, thus entitled to the largesse of the Democrat Party. Then we could head over to the stadium and heckle whoever wins.

[E.G.C.]

BTTT

[PGalt]

LOL! Outstanding, Chris! Thankfully the ‘rats and their lawyers aren’t prosecuting the people that stole their homes from them. /sarcasm

[writer33]

Thanks for reading, AZ Liberty. I do appreciate it.

[writer33]

Thanks for the bump, E.G.C.

[writer33]

Thanks for reading, P.Galt. I do appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed it.

[SouthTexas]

I’m hoping the Looper can organize a “running of the bums”.

How about sending them to ANWR, since we don't do anything else with it?

Could be a grand presentation of "Hobos on Ice".

[SierraWasp]

What’d yew say about my face? (grin)

Negative. The Caribou are pristine creatures that cannot be disturbed by big oil or homeless people. :-)

[SouthTexas]

They wouldn’t be disturbed, they would be entertained!

[writer33]

Likely so. Good point, ST.

[SouthTexas]

Moreso if the moonbats showed up. ;)

[writer33]

Very true.
