The Boulder County Drug Task Force announced Thursday it had arrested 10 people in connection with selling drugs on or near the Pearl Street Mall, including Jeff Christen-Mitchell, a Libertarian candidate for Boulder County Commissioner in 2004.
Christen-Mitchell was charged with one count each of distribution of marijuana; conspiracy to distribute marijuana; possession of marijuana with intent to sell; possession of more than 8 ounces of marijuana and possession of a schedule II controlled substance.
Other defendants facing various charges include Donald McNeese, April Martinez-Laveta, Justin Boyer, Greta Duderstadt, Charles Weddle, Dallas Elviro Dilaura, Diana Stough, Kenneth Finney and Joseph Gulla.
Warrants for the arrest of Daniel Rogers and Jerimiah Jordan, who are at large, were also issued.
A press release from the BCDT said the warrants came as the result of a three-month investigation that “had identified several persons involved in the distribution, and conspiracy to distribute, marijuana and controlled substances.'”
The release said the investigation also netted three search warrants, about $7000 in drug proceeds, 50 ounces of marijuana, 1 ounce of psilocybin mushrooms, assorted prescription drugs and some stolen property.
Authorities said in the release that the Task Force targeted the Pearl Street Mall because of its status as “a shopping, social and work destination for people living in Boulder and the surrounding area” and because “this activity attracts an element of people that detracts from the positive atmosphere of the mall and negatively impacts most people's quality of lifeŠ”
My bad. Libertarians tend to make the same points that sane people intend as preposterous sarcasm. You understand my difficulty, right?
I guess it depends on how you define "success". If you define it as "failure", you'd be closer to the truth.

Democrats say the same about the WOT as they do the WOD. Lets just give up on both I guess, since they aren't instantly defeated forever.
No problem. Next time I'll include a ~sarcasm~ tag.
Sorry, I don't buy into your circle jerk rationale.
ah yes, that old bit..... Name one child that says.... my daddy is a better daddy when he is high on pot.
It just occured to me why the usual WOD suspects have not descended on this thread the way they normally do: They don't want to call attention to it.
2004, obviously that means he lost. What a shock. After he gets out maybe he can run for dog catcher.
Wouldn't a liberaltarian be morally opposed to dog catchers?
lol
My youngest is at UNT.....and he has been to Fry St.....gasp!
He SAYS to drink beer..he's 21..but, hmmmmmmm
ping
In reality they aren't that principled. It would give them another elected office to crow about.
To date, what is Liberaltarianism's greatest triumph? Is it a former pro wrestler being elected of the only state Walter Mondale took in the 1984 presidential election?
LOL...my niece is going to North Texas now...she parties pretty hard...
We didn't party much when my husband went there...it was after he got back from Vietnam...and I don't know that Fry Street was like it is now...
Of course....when I grew up...Boulder didn't have the Mall that his article is about either....just an old downtown area that was pretty deserted once the Crossroad Mall opened up...
And now the Crossroads Mall is old and abandoned.
He just turned 21 last August....so it's very cool to go to a bar. His 2 older brothers did the same thing....until they realized, "Wait..I have no food money, no gas money, no date money.." Amazing...thank goodness the novelty wore off!
Classes start..today! Only 3 more semesters and NO MORE COLLEGE! HOORAY!
Ventura wasn't a Libertarian.
If we're as successful at the WOT as the WOD, by 2030 they'll be setting off a car bomb a week in Manhattan, and they'll be assuring us that we're winning the war.
What are they major differences between Reform and Libertarian? One rolls their own and the other likes bongs?
