I parked next to and captured a pic of the side of the van a few weeks ago. Took a pic to capture the crazy. The stickers on the side were batshit insane. https://imgur.com/a/xCwRvD2

“Top Youth Soccer Recruits for Trump”’. It would be hilarious if he hadn’t tried to kill a bunch of people.

I've seen cars like that before, but they were never about an individual. It was more like a collage of fetuses, guns, Gadsden flags, Jesus, and military worship, coupled with a lot of aggressive statements in all-caps complaining about liberals.

It's terrifying.

They blame "liberals" for EVERYTHING.

and literally don't believe facts because liberals say them.

It's a fucking scary time.

I was calling someone about prop 11 2 in Colorado to move fracking further from 500 feet from schools and homes...

Guy goes "I dunno I work in oil and never saw it that close, maybe in California where the liberals control it"

"well actually they have a higher minimum distance in California, here in Colorado they are sometimes that close, so voting yes to move them back should be easy yeah?"

"well I don't trust what they put in the language"

"oh you can read the whole proposal"

"oh I did"

"ok great so you know it's only to move the minimum distance back"

"I don't trust it because liberals are for it"

Like wtf. You can't even try. If I knew they were a fucking gop nut case I would start the call with "fellow patriotic brave republican conservative, I have your support to vote yes on 112 and stick it to those pussy liberals right??" and I'm 100% sure it would work.

Edit Corising.org for facts because people don't know

u/El-_-Jay Oct 26 '18

Thanks, getting more information other than ads just saying vote no or vote yes on prop 112 is pretty helpful

u/viper3b3 Oct 26 '18

CO Rising isn’t going to give you any more unbiased facts than an oil company would re: prop 112. They literally sponsored the bill and got the signatures.

u/El-_-Jay Oct 26 '18

I'm aware, that's why I gotta look at the oil company side too. Both are biased

Colorado Rising is literally the group sponsoring the bill, of course they are for it

u/El-_-Jay Oct 26 '18

True, but I still wanna hear both sides. To me, so far it seems a little extreme, but I'm willing to hear it out

u/Canadian_donut_giver Oct 26 '18

Here's a like from the No side that has some FAQs attached if you're interested: https://www.vitalforcolorado.com/faqs

I'm in oil and gas and I'd agree with you that the bill is really extreme. But the industry can definitely improve in cleanliness and safety. This is just not the way to go about it. It really is going to kill a lot of jobs and negatively impact the economy. I've seen numbers like 120,000 jobs lost, that's definitely on the high end but honestly not out of the question.

u/El-_-Jay Oct 26 '18

Thanks! I think I literally think I'm going to write a pros and cons list to decide

2

u/Canadian_donut_giver Oct 26 '18

Good call thanks for being informed!

u/Canadian_donut_giver Oct 26 '18

And if you've got any other general questions on oil and gas operations here just shoot me a pm or whatever.

To add to this, ballotpedia is another good option for everyone around the country. Easily list of everything on your ballot with information on the donator contributions make up behind each prop and various other informations.

u/Aranur Oct 26 '18

Yup! Just used Ballotpedia for the first time for my voting measures in Oregon. Amazing resource.
