The King Soopers shooting: A question and a factoid

[locks]

4. I've liked DU for

years since my dear daughter and son-in-law found it. But I have been disappointed that more Colorado people writing has been so limited especially on political subjects that I hope Coloradans are interested in.

Yesterday was one of the saddest and most frustrating days of my long life. I have lived in Colorado since 1975, 20 years in Denver and 21 years in Boulder. I have lived in Indiana, Oklahoma, D.C, northern Virginia, Florida, and Chicago and always been very interested in politics, education, and all the many subjects DU people write on. I have been very fortunate to travel to other nations also.

Boulder has always been a great place to live for liberal, outdoor, educated, caring persons and for those seeking a different life. I have lived through terrible tragedies in Colorado; the media has covered our recent tragedy well but I am wondering how many DU members have any idea what we (as well as many other Americans and citizens of other countries) are going through and how much we long for our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren to have a better., not wealthier, life.
