There is no winners in this situation, Its hard enough to know some young person was killed! Why would this Woman Involve Two Innocent young people to do something that was so horrible, There is no Name for Karin Atkinson she is a waste of life!! I dont Feel sorry for her she is a mistake. that was made here on Earth!! Then look at this situation where were the parents of this young person Nathaniel Hughes? This young Man had no business taking money from anyone thinking he was going to swindle $1,500 out of a person and Thinking he could get away with it,and second of all nathaniel Hughes should have been looking for a Job or getting ready to go to the Military or College and preparing his life for the future, Why did the parents not encourge that for there kid, since now they want to wear Buttons and wanting to Blame and call names and hate and feel sorry for themselves, that just is not right, Now they have only Memories.

Nathan - see my response to Randy. I don't feel as though I need to pay for someone to leave. I didn't pay for them to come here. So, put up or shut up isn't really a very good defense. I also am entitled to my opinion. If you don't like where you are, go somewhere else... please.

Randy... I am guessing you are not from here, are you? People moved here for the great community and brought their problems. Am I willing to pay for people like you to move - no. I just want you to pack up and go. You got a lot of money for the house you sold in the area you left and got a great price on a bigger house here. Take some of that profit and go back.

Sounds like Julie can't accept that this place was (past tense) once a great city. Seems we had another stabbing Saturday night and a drive by shooting on Friday. Are you willing pay the moving expenses for those who speak truthfully about the problems in this city? Most here seem to use the "well the crime is worth in other cities" alibi. That may be true, but do we live there? Do we have any control over the actions in those cities? NO!

For those of you who do not like our "so called" great city I say go ahead and move back to where you came from. Our city was great until all of the people moved in and brought their problems with them.

there is nothing wrong with colorado. colorado is a beautiful state. people are bad not the state. same concept as guns don't kill, people do. all of you who are complaining about colorado, are you moving out or are you getting involved to do something about it. do you have neighborhood watch programs? do you know your neighbors? do you reach out to your community with care or do you sit in your home with blinders on and live in your own little world doing nothing except for yourself? if you're moving away, good luck finding a place to live where there's no crime. God's plan is unfolding. Find the truth. Jesus died for our sins, seek redemption and forgivness.
