Colorado, a truly beautiful place, a place where Robert A. Heinlein decided to build a house (and since house numbers weren't a thing at the time numbered it 1776,) has become a bit of a mess.
I lived in the Springs for a short couple years. Many people from New Orleans were relocated there after Katrina. They were all placed in apartment complexes and things got so out of hand the police literally called them "no-go" zones. They called those places Somalia Springs or New Somalia.
Mind you, these were people from New Orleans, not migrants.
It does not surprise me in the least that "migrants" are pulling this. They got away with it in their home countries, so why wouldn't they get away with it here?
I find it funny how there are Dems in the past on record being very critical of mail in voting but in 2020 it was the most immaculate ever and the fact that you had massive mail in voting shouldn’t draw suspicion
Yeah there's tons of archived news stories you can find critical not only of mail in voting but also machine voting/tabulation, because of all the security risks involved.
Fortunately in 2020 State Election boards certified all US elections as safe and secure. The end.
Nothing new there. Look up most recent social issues and you will likely find 30odd years ago the same people who are now droning on about how it's a good thing now.
Colorado flipped blue way before the current governor was a thing. Like 30 years ago, at least, is when it flipped. My dad' friend had a "Don't Californicate Colorado" bumper sticker in the 1970s, ffs.
The Californication of Colorado also screwed up the housing market there. Houses used to cost sub $100k before all the Californians moved there. But, since the Californian housing market has been way over priced, the Californians would sell their houses for hundreds of thousands, move to Colorado, and could over bid the locals, which jacked up the house prices, which quickly made houses shoot to well over $100k, and then over $200k, in just 10-20 years. This happened in the 90s and 00s.
Now, with inflation and the housing bubble, it's even worse, and it's everywhere.
In the 1970s, “don’t Californicate Colorado” wouldn’t necessarily have meant “don’t go left,” would it? It used to go right more often before Reagan gave amnesty to all those illegals.
Its like any other state, deep red and the blue zones are the big cities.
In this case, its basically Denver providing the numerical blue advantage (and every city outside the mountains is just an offshoot of Denver) and Vail/Aspen providing the Elites a place to lay roots.
Gotcha. Here in TX I live in the only large county that is still somewhat red. Every big city in the state is blue but one thing with Texas being so large is that the large number of rural areas really help keep it red. Although when you look at the whole country it’s essentially blue islands in a red ocean

The libshits' rebuttal to that is "corn doesn't vote." The bugmen are chomping at the bit to turn Texas into another California or Illinois or New York or Oregon or Washington or etc.
Denver is a shithole. The amount of homeless there is insane and they're violent, aggressive homeless. Walking around Denver at night is one of the few places where I have legit felt uncomfortable and unsafe. And I live in a major city and have been to South America and eastern Europe.
People from New Orleans are basically less than human by birth, and that doesn't change no matter where they go.
Like, all areas of Louisiana have some amount of niggerdom and all the crime ridden retardation of the South. But Nola is a special breed and I am beginning to think Katrina was created in a government lab to have an excuse to spread those Mongrels to every corner of the country.
They destroyed my hometown within a few weeks of being there, and we were barely 45 minutes away from them (thereby used to a lot of that shit). I can only imagine how a bunch of less ready, white-bread towns dealt with them.
You are not wrong. I have family on the other side of the Causeway and the things they say about Nola is both hilarious and horrifying.
Also, I think the Katrina re-homing or what ever they called it was largely an exercise in moving shit people in to stable places. Shortly after it was mandated that everywhere had to offer multi-family housing. So you end up with places like the OP.

Colorado used to be a reliably red state right?
They implemented mail-in voting. The end.

Used to be, but the gay millionaire governor seems to be changing things up a bit

If we allowed natural selection to work its crazy magic, the homeless would be gone after winter.
Still is in the desert side I hear.
