Recall Supporters Vow To "Pack The Courtroom" Tomorrow

  • 27 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols

An email blast moments ago from the El Paso Freedom Defense Committee:

Help ensure the voice of the people is heard! Senator John Morse is challenging the Recall efforts in Court, and THIS WEDNESDAY is our day to pack the Courtroom to send a message that We the People won't be silenced! This critical Court case will determine whether or not the Recall elections against Sens. John Morse and Angela Giron move forward. Morse constituents, Grassroots activists, Coalitions, Opinion leaders all welcome…

Meet us on the Court steps at 8:00a.m. 
Enter into the Courthouse and report to "Judge Hyatt's" Courtroom (look for signs).
Attire is business, business casual, or presentable casual

We hope these folks stay civil as they "pack the court," but that's not their reputation as you know. That said, District Court is not the same environment as a Colorado General Assembly committee hearing, where disruptive gun-lobby hooting and hollering was, inappropriately but you as may recall, tolerated.

Hopefully they keep in mind that Judge Robert Hyatt has armed bailiffs at his disposal.

  1. No no no.  Only citizens that support fracking bans are mobs, silly Guvs!  Citizens that pack courtrooms to 'not be silenced' are clearly not.  See, when local communities want to have a say in industrial actity in their midst, its an anarchist free for all.  

          1. Looks like you boys have taken your fair share a floggings lately.  Fortunately you probably have tough hides after running such a free for all for so many years.

            Thanks for having a great website that highlights Colorado politics.  I pimp it whenever I can when I'm posting at other sites.

      1. He also has authority to find attendees in contempt – and to sentence and detain.

         

        The attendees should show their 2nd Amendment support and carry 'em if they got 'em.

  2. I love staged showings of public support – as if "packing the courtroom" is some subliminal message to the judge that every single one – every last man, woman and child – of Morse's constituents want him removed from office. 

  3. Judges have been known to reach the opposite conclusion, OF. If a judge picks up so much as a whiff of attempted intimidation, the miscreants are toast.

    It's always best to be on one's best behavior in court.

     

    1. Twitter updates on recall hearing in District Court:

      #COleg (DP's Kurtis Lee) and #COpolitics (the Colorado Peak whackos) have updates on Twitter. Currently, Victor Head is testifying. 9news' Brandon Rittman (@Brandonrittman) is covering also.

      No decisions yet, lots of testimony and examining evidence.

    1. Gessler has no relevance since he does not understand Colorado Constitution. He also knows he's wrong, but doesn't give a damn in the name of party politics.

      Plus, he's still ethically challenged and needs to be thrown out on his own ass.

    1. Ok great. Thank you for this – been following this for a little while.

       

      I'm hell-raising over on a few news forum. oh well. I'm still trying to find the best possible source for someone to follow the proceedings, either by live blogging or the tweets. It seems the tweets is the best bet, huh? So who do I follow for the best tweets about Colorado politics? Specifically for the Democratic side.

      1. If you search for #COleg, you'll get an aggregate of people tweeting about legislative news in CO. Then as far as specific people to follow, I like Gilbert Ortiz, our Pueblo county clerk. The rest I follow on this topic are journalists:  Kurtis Lee from the Denver Post, Brandon Rittiman from Channel 9, Ivan Moreno, AP journalist, even Eli Stokols from Fox.
