(If he loses he might find a position in Maes’ cabinet. – promoted by ClubTwitty)
Before Don Beezley was the Republican nominee in House District 33, he told the unvarnished truth about his vision for Colorado, and his vision is, in a word, bizarre.
The Broomfield County Democrats launched a website today (www.BizarreBeezley.com), dedicated to educating voters about the real Don Beezley. We could say more, but we’ll let Mr. Beezley speak for himself. Each of the following are direct quotes, fully sourced at www.BizarreBeezley.com:
I don’t believe in municipal or county government. It strikes me as 100% superfluos [sic] in all its functions. Police and courts can be handled at the state level, supplemeted [sic] with private solutions. Nothing else the cities or counties do is valid except for recording property titles. If someone (non-libertarian) wants to argue about streets, the state level could handle that too.
That’s right friends, Mr. Beezley does not believe the government should provide roads. Mr. Beezley also has thoughts on Coloradans with disabilities:
I used to own small restauarants [sic] shortly after ADA was passed. When building out a new one, the existing bathrooms were off in dimensions by a few inches. Rather than risking a lawsuit under the newly energized ADA, I spent $5,000 to redo the bathrooms (on a small budget with no money). Prior to that, it had been a pleasure to help a disabled person out with a tray, a door or whatever. After that, I could only think, “you better use my d*** bathroom!” when someone rolled in. ADA took other human beings from being someone with a challenge whom it might be a joy to help, and turned them into a burden. An enemy. [our emphasis]
And this is just the beginning.
Mr. Beezley’s musings on crime include the belief that all drugs should be legalized…as well as prostitution.
Stop manufacturing violent criminals with unjust laws against actions that may be morally questionable but are no one’s business (drugs, prostitution, etc.).
How should governments respond when their citizens’ are killed and injured by natural disasters? Mr. Beezley says by doing nothing at all. But you ask, what should the survivors of Hurricane Katrina, huddled in the Superdome, have done for food? Mr. Beezley has an answer for that too:
I suspect if Dominos had gotten a call, they might have found a way to get it there!
There is much more where that came from at www.BizarreBeezley.com. Now there’s nothing that says Mr. Beezley cannot be an extreme libertarian. He’s an American, and he’s free to believe that all cities and counties should be abolished, that Coloradans with disabilities should be stripped of their rights, and that when tornadoes rip through Colorado, the government should turn a deaf ear.
What would be wrong, would be running for election and misleading voters about his views on how our society should be in Colorado. Mr. Beezley has no right to conceal the type of legislator he will be simply because he knows it will be wildly unpopular. We sincerely hope that he does not.
