CO Gov. calls gang takeovers of buildings "imagination"

There is a frightening situation going on in Aurora, Colorado. Illegal aliens who belong to Venezuela's Tren de Aragua gang have gone into buildings armed and potentially violent, ready to take over apartment complexes, beat the crap out of renters, and operate a retail theft ring. 

Unlike Denver down the road a bit, Aurora is not a sanctuary city and haven't provided resources to illegal alien care. The residents of the town have tried working with state law enforcement agencies but the Governor, Jared Polis (D-of course) doesn't seem to care nor take the situation seriously.

Never mind that it's on video of these gang members armed to the teeth with handguns, rifles with bipods, and battering rams breaking into apartments and terrorizing residents. Video is not imagination nor are the police reports that have been generated from these atrocious acts.

If Polis was forced to live in one of these apartments, there's no doubt he would react differently. But politicians are not affected directly by violence for the most part, and they couldn't care less about residents as long as they keep getting voted in.

Polis’ press office offered the snarky statement Wednesday night in response to Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky — who told The Post the gang’s takeovers are tied to his policies.

“The Governor has already let the Mayor know that the State is ready to support the local police department with assistance from state troopers and the Colorado Bureau of Investigation if needed,” Shelby Wieman, a spokesperson for the Democratic governor, told The Post.

“But, according to police intelligence this purported invasion is largely a feature of Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.”

So Polis pees on our legs and tells us it's just raining.

We know that one person has already been shot and critically wounded by these illegal aliens. Others were beaten and required hospitalization. Many had to flee their own homes and theft for the local Walmart at the apartment complex in question has soared and goods are being sold off on the black market. It sounds a lot like what Hamas has been doing with the aid coming into Gaza by truck--they commandeer it and sell it off or use if for themselves.

The local news ran videos of groups of men speaking Spanish and armed with handguns and rifles breaking into one of the apartments. What does Polis have to see to convince him that this isn't one person's imagination.

But stupid people don't know that they're stupid.
