Denver, Colorado, is 1,782 miles from where I sit, so why would I care what they do? That’s a fair question, so here’s my answer. It is the same explanation for most of the out-of-state content. What Democrats are doing there is what Democrats here will do or want. There’s no diversity of thought or deed.
California is an example of the fresh hell we’ll be frog-marched into if we let down our guard for even a moment. Vermont is the nearest fresh hell (to me), having let its guard down.
Unlike Libertarians and most Republicans (many of whom are more inclined to leave you alone), Democrats have a template. You fit in it, or you don’t, and there are consequences for the latter. If Colorado Democrats are onto something, it is here already or near to “here,” percolating in what passes for their narrow little minds of far-left zombies in elected office.
Massachusetts, for example, across my State’s southern border, has already sent a shot across its residents’ bow by asking citizens if they have room to take in some border-jumping illegal non-citizen entrants.
[Gov. Healey] says Massachusetts has been spending around $45 million a month to help assist these families. The situation is so bad, the Healey administration is now asking people to open their homes and businesses to help people in need.
“Most importantly, if you have an extra room or suite in your home, please consider hosting a family. Housing and shelter is our most pressing need and become a sponsor family,” said Lt. Governor Kim Driscoll.
The problem is a declared state of emergency, which hints at the likelihood of COVID-esque demands, and now Denver is asking its citizens to open their doors (the way Dems opened our borders).
We’re now at the stage where people with extra room are being asked to host illegal migrants in their homes.

A new push is encouraging people with “extra room” to host illegals in their homes. They even set up a helpful hotline to expedite the process.
‘Hope Has No Borders’ is working to pair illegals with host families across Colorado, and this can now be expedited via a new hotline.
I found a Facebook Page and Website for Hope Has No Borders, but there is no record of any 990s yet—they may be too new for that. In other words, I could not trace their funding. This group is allegedly providing money for food and basics to Denver families who dial 211 and adopt illegal aliens.
I doubt they’ve raised a sum from donors to address any increased need, so who is paying for it?
Denver recently cut 8 million from their police and fire department budgets to address ‘migrant’ issues. Someone should take a look at where that went.
And while we wait, here is some additional advice that makes too much sense to be taken seriously: Stop bringing them in and start flying them out. Problem solved.
Or we keep doing this until the “government” tries to force us to take them in. They are
t technically soldiers, so the Bill of Rights prohibition won’t apply.
Any such demand will be contentious and likely result in ‘mostly peaceful protests’ that, combined with the self-imposed attrition among the FD and PD (at least in Denver), could produce some exciting results.
I wonder if Antifa – none of whom will voluntarily take in illegals, they are mostly 20 and thirtysomething taking up the extra space in their parent’s basement – will engage in violence against people who don’t step up? They, along with BLM, are the Left’s modern red shirts—Maoist Red Guard in black. And that’s the point. They don’t care about you or the illegals. The goal is civil unrest, even if they have to start it (again and again) themselves.
So volunteer … to drive them to the airport.
