shut down and interior fire operations were put into place. Chief 1 arrived on scene

Are we over reacting to these measles outbreaks?
From the headlines and stories you'd think measles were as deadly as Anthrax.
Before the 1970's, getting the measles was just part of growing up, and for the most part was treated with the same urgency as a cold or skinned knee.
"if we can prevent a disease, why not take those preventative measures?" well said.
in this day and age, anyone who imagines that there is any non-partisan election anywhere in this nation - from president to dog catcher - is living in a fairyland. as noted herein, disputes between city & county are exhibit #1 to show the concept is a sham.
I agree with the first part of Mr. Mitchell's statement, there's no such thing as a totally non-partisan elected official.
But I don't agree that disagreements between city & county are proof of concept.
for perhaps a better perspective - let's zoom in a little closer....can you tell me that there is never discord between the majority republican alamogordo city officials and the democratic controlled state government. more specifically, can you say that and keep a straight face?
May officer Ontiveros rest in peace.
If there's a ****, I hope the devil is enjoying a slow roasted bbq of Dennis Armenta, the scum bag who shot officer Ontiveros multiple times.
From the Durango Herald;
My sincere condolences to the family, friends, and coworkers of Officer Ontiveros.
as i stated a couple days ago - government by people who couldn't find their fanny with a flashlight and a mirror.
Removing the list from the website doesn't mean the list has been deleted.
I would think that counties and sheriff's offices alike would want the list to remain public.
a vital step in preserving our constitution from those who would ignore all forms of checks & balances, and grant de facto authority to persons and groups whose intentions are dismantling our constitutional form of government for their own personal wealth and power.
So you recognize and agree with the reasons that president Trump had for transforming USDS in DOGE as a vital step in preserving our country.
i recognize that trump's bromance and monetary dependence on musk resulted in an entirely unconstitutional transfer of power to an unelected foreign-born billionaire - who personally profited huge sums of money by removing potential legal liabilities facing him.
is that what you're referencing?
