GREELEY – Sex offenders against children could be allowed to move closer to schools and parks in Greeley. “We’re trying to strike a balance between the need for public safety. We want to protect our kids from sex offenders, versus being able to have these folks rehabilitate and not re-offend out here,” Greeley Police Chief Jerry Garner said.
Garner supports an ordinance that would reduce from 750 feet to 300 feet the mandatory distance a sex offender must live from parks, schools, playgrounds and pools. He said the city attorney suggested the ordinance change out of fear of a lawsuit that could cost the city hundreds of thousands of dollars. “If we don’t change our ordinance, we’re going to end up getting sued and spending a whole bunch of money,” Garner said.

If I lived in that area I would leave; The police chief sounds like he may have “skimmed” a few factual reports, but not very thoroughly. HOWEVER;he is still spewing misinformation and states two times that “sex offenders” go somewhere to re offend. Which tells the public an out and out lie. I feel like a Jew in Nazi Germany.When are these clowns going to get their information correct!?
Read the Nurnberg laws against the Jews and Romanis (Gypsy is derogatory). Replace race with past sexual offence, and the laws read frightfully like our own.
Hi Tim I just went over the laws and here is a list that I believe parallels the laws enacted against us. I have changed the word Jew with SO. 1933 Random attacks on So’s & So’s property Police & the courts no longer protect SO’s 1934 SO students excluded from exams in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy and law SO’s excluded from military service 1935 Nure4mberg laws deny SO’s many basic civil rights 1935-36 SO’s banned from parks, restaurants and swimming pools SO’s no longer allowed to electrical/optical equipment, bicycles, typewriters or records (NOTE) Many SO’s are denied the use of… Read more »
Also, Jews were classed in three tiers. Local ordinances were enacted that went beyond the Nurnberg laws. Many were not even practicing Hebrews, Catholic priests who had what can only vaguely defined as an ancestor of unpure blood were considered Jews. Their status as non citizens could not be changed, because they were considered unpure beings. How familiar that sounds.
HI Tim;
Sounds VERY familiar. It’s pretty much the same now.
Hi Tim;
I just watched a WW-2 doc about Hitler and I’ll be darned if he doesn’t look just like some lobbyist, a DA (OC comes to mind)or some politician spewing their hate/panic filled garbage today!
The goal of the Nazi’s was to make Germany Jew free, just like just about every community in the USA wants to do. I think the logic is about the same as the Nazi’s logic.
My God! The Nazi’s instituted forced sterilization! And if you didn’t hate those you were expected to hate you could have problems; sound familiar?
