Continued Disarming of Boulder County People
Longmont meets on Tuesday June 14th and is doing something different. They are having a PREmeeting at 5:30 where they will be talking about potential gun laws - and where you will NOT be allowed to speak. Their regular session starts at 7:00pm where they will have their standard public invited to be heard times.
They added this to that section of their agenda:
• Public participation at regular and special City Council meetings is regulated by Rule 5 of City Council Rules of Procedure. Each speaker is limited to three minutes and Council Rules dictate that one person may not give or assign their time to others. The Chair may regulate the time for public participation, may restrict cumulative or redundant presentations, and may require that each speaker’s comments pertain to the subject under discussion.
They do not mention specific laws they want to write, but the PREsession packet includes information from Everytown for Gun Safety and Giffords Law Center. Click here to read.
Republicans do have answers regarding school shootings and it does not include turning thousands of law abiding citizens into criminals. See below in the "Learn" section of this Call to Action.

Boulder County Republicans have been invited to participate in a monthly event at the Boulder Public Library, 3rd Wednesday of every month, 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm in the Boulder Creek Room, by an organization called Living Room Conversations.
They connect people across divides - politics, age, gender, race, nationality, and more - through guided conversations proven to build understanding and transform communities.
Topics on the website range from Mental Health, to Abortion, Cancel Culture: Free Speech and Accountability, to Guns and Responsibility. Perhaps we can bridge some divides and enlighten a few with calm conversation.
The Facilitator is Annie and can be reached at annie@livingroomconversations.org Candidates are welcome, from Boulder and Longmont and CD2, as is anyone interested in participating in a discussion in a relaxed setting.

Regarding School Shootings
Below is a series of articles regarding Our Killing Schools.
Before we can fix the problem, we must first identify and understand its deepest causes.
Part 1. Defining the Problem
Part 2: Progressive education and our killing schools
Part3: Nihilism and our Killing Schools
It's great to figure out the deepest causes but what can be done now?
Click here to read about FASTER, a program for teaching Faculty/Administrator Safety Training & Emergency Response (FASTER). This could be done now with cost to the schools.
Click here to read Jon Caldara's column regarding armed school staff. And see below Laura Carno on Fox News talking about FASTER.

- These Calls to Action are not sanctioned by anyone. Not the RNC and not the BOCOGOP either, though they give me this platform to use and will kick me off if I misuse it.
- I create this. If you send me items to post, I may edit it, or I may not. I appreciate it when things are sent because I cannot keep track of all that goes on in Boulder County!
- The amount and thoroughness of these has only to do with how much time I have to spend on it and has nothing to do with the importance of an event. Half the time I send this out and then notice 3 more items that you might have been interested in as well.
- I assume this is not your only place to retrieve this sort of information.
- And finally – I write conversationally – in other words, not well. ;-)
Thank you for your time – and thank you for your continued support for everything that goes on in Boulder County!
