Jon Caldera, President of the Independence Institute talks about how intolerant Boulder is. The conclusion to his Colorado Daily column titled “Intolerant Boulder” is:
In a city that prides itself on throwing around the words “tolerance” and “diversity” like they are rice at a wedding (or bird seed in Boulder), my 24 years here have taught me that Boulder is still a massively intolerant place. Oh, there is a lot of tolerance of different political points of view here, assuming that all those views lean to the collectivist.
I’m not holding my breath for the city to reverse the smoking ban, lower taxes or allow cars on the bike paths. But a little less hypersensitivity would be a fine start.
