It’s been an awesome week. A week where Lakewood began requiring that all paid escorts be registered and injected with tracking micro-chips. Or maybe that was cats. It's easy to get confused with so many good ideas coming out of our local and state governments these days.

Trying to shut down a prison in Rifle.

Working to eliminate the death penalty.

Refusing to join the rest of the country in passing Jessica’s Law.

"I applaud the Colorado legislature for being one of only eight states to not pass tough legislation against child molesters," said one opponent of the law, singer Michael Jackson.
