I don't like this website and have mostly stopped using it, but I do want to say: Whether or not camping bans are legal under the eyes of the Supreme Court does not mean it is right or just or humane. dailycamera.com/2024/12/15/edi…

@iBringBalance @mitchellbyars @DorfmanNicole The answer here simply has to do with how many submissions I get. Iris Ave opinions are in the pipeline, but I can't simply bump them to the top of the queue, as that likely wouldn't sit well with everybody else who is passionate about their issue.

@mitchellbyars @DorfmanNicole That's @GJVGarrison I take it? It is a bit worrying that he's written a piece that shows a clear bias 😬 Don't get me wrong, I'm a cyclist, and so any pro-cyclist thing is good for me But this kind of bias will leave a sour taste in residents' mouths dailycamera.com/2023/12/30/opi…

I have to say I'm a bit dissappointed with the @dailycamera guest opinion column The pieces published for the last couple of weeks are all ideological Meanwhile, none about local #Boulder issues, including none about the Iris Ave project storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/e2e83f…

#Boulder! I am INCREDIBLY excited and proud to say our newsroom (@dailycamera/@TimesCall) won 12 awards at the Society for Professional Journalists' Top of the Rockies awards on Sat!!! Fantastic work to @GJVGarrison, @BrentWNew, @photojmatthew, @CliffordGrassm1 and @jvahlenkamp.

@odarren1 @RepEpps so that in the future we can approach the topic with more knowledge and a broader understanding of the perspectives of the stakeholders. Would you be interested in writing a guest opinion so that our readers can get a second perspective?

I often like @GJVGarrison's editorials, but not always-such as when he endorsed Bob F'ing Yates for Mayor. Here, I think he completely ignores, as majority whites so often do, that calls for civility against BIPOC folks like @RepEpps ignore that it is used to silence voices 1/

@odarren1 @RepEpps Hi Darren, thank you for weighing in here. It is very true that we don't always capture the full picture. But I am always interested learning more about these issues 1/2

To keep pace with a changing world, we must invest in our future. Two taxes on this year’s ballot — BVSD’s proposed bond measure and a reconfigured climate tax — are two ways Boulder can continue investing in and planning for our shared future. dailycamera.com/2022/10/09/edi…
