Democratic Gov. Jared Polis called the Gadsden flag ‘a proud symbol of the American revolution’ after a a Colorado student was told to remove a patch of the “Don’t Tread on Me” flag from his backpack.
This is solid blue Colorado, where California Progressives have settled. They are used to getting their way, but Colorado is all about individual rights. So the Progressives out here get mad quite often when the government doesn’t back their extreme views and mission to ban right-wing imagery. Keep in mind those in question are not a large group of people and do not reflect Progressives elsewhere in the nation.
I’m from Colorado, we have never been solid blue. Until quite recently we were reliably purple. Outside of our major metro areas we are still pretty red.
You’re talking out your ass.
I’ve lived in Colorado for 34 years, it’s solid fucking blue.
There are only 500,000 that live outside the metro areas, so yes about 500K Republicans and 5 million Democrats.
A solid blue state wouldn’t elect someone like Boebert MULTIPLE FUCKING TIMES you dumb fuck
Colorado springs is the second largest metro area and even that city is pretty red. You don’t know what you are talking about
… in Colorado Springs private schools? I’m guessing you haven’t spent a second in Colorado Springs.
Colorado Springs isn’t the ultra right-wing haven it used to be. It’s purple and will turn blue in the near future.
Uh excuse me, you were just crying in another thread about how the state is totally solid blue but now it’s purple eh?
The decision of a SINGLE PERSON doesn’t mean SHIT. Fuck off weak ass troll
