“I know it is a first-world issue, but it affects our air and health, both physical and mental.” — Joe Wolf, Denver
If CDOT and Denver could synchronize the traffic lights in and around Denver, we probably wouldn’t need emissions testing, and the air would be cleaner. It is very frustrating to drive down a major thoroughfare such as Quebec Street and have to stop at nearly every — if not every — light, including those at the intersections of lightly traveled cross streets.
Picture 20 or so vehicles stopping and restarting to allow one car to cross. When I call to complain, I eventually get an email telling me the issue has been looked into and the lights are working properly! How can that be, when the timing varies from one instance to the next, even at the same time of day?Remember the day you took the oath of office to stand up for the people? Your responsibility is to support the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees that everyone born on American soil is a U.S. citizen. In every American family, there was an immigrant who came to America to build a decent life for their family and to be proud of the contributions they made to society. You are part of that legacy. Don’t throw mud on the hard work they did to ensure you are an American. These immigrants were the foundation of this country; they poured their heart into the nation to do great things. The oath did not say loyalty to the president; you serve the people. Please examine your position and soul and stand up for every boy and girl born in America. You have to know in your heart that President Donald Trump’s executive order to strip away that birthright is wrong and inhumane. Please do the right thing and challenge this action.Can anyone think that President Donald Trump’s pardons for the Jan. 6 Capitol rioters are justified? If so, it’s a warped way of thinking. These formerly convicted criminals attacked and did physical harm to many of the Capitol police and did untold damage to the U.S. Capitol. They threatened to kill Rep. Nancy Pelosi and Vice President Mike Pence, who thankfully, were safely hidden away. For anyone who wants to equate these pardons with former President Joe Biden’s pardons, it is just plain ridiculous. Does Hunter Biden deserve to go to prison? Probably. But he didn’t assault anyone and only did harm to himself in reality. Contrast his actions with the Jan. 6 so-called “hostages” or “patriots,” and it’s not even close. These hoodlums threatened to overturn our system of government, and it was all because they falsely believed that the 2020 presidential election was stolen. So they were brainwashed into believing the Big Lie and then they went on a rampage. How can anyone excuse that idiocy? And now we have Trump, the convicted felon, pardoning all of these criminals. That’s rich.Re: “New community center wants neighbors to visit,” Jan. 22 news story Loretto Heights has always been a beautiful campus; the red brick buildings are reminiscent of the Ivy League campuses. The new community center proposal is in stark contrast to those buildings and doesn’t blend into the campus at all. I wish the developers would take a look at DU and other historic campuses and see how the buildings complement each other; they look like a community of buildings. Please rethink this building for the sake of community.41 arrested by immigration officials during raid of Tren de Aragua party in Adams County, officials saySpectator killed by hammer throw during prep track meet at UCCS fieldhouseKeeler: Avalanche trade of Mikko Rantanen to Carolina raises red flags.
