Maybe Neville is talking about people that actually believe the paranoid crap he's selling and tend to vote for the fearmongers?
Where are they moving to, Idaho?
I'd say that's a win-win for Colorado
You mean a Right Flight? I would agree. Colorado would be a better place without those types of people here.
Let's hope the door doesn't hit them on the ass on their way out.
Let em all move up to Wyoming. They're still ~130,000 people short of what each of our congresspeople represents.
Okay. We get Yellowstone and Grand Tetons, they get everything else, and can have western Nebraska too.
"Right flight"! Brilliant. C'mon "illegal" aliens, drive the snakes out of CO!
Jeee eee eee sus. . .
. . , and here I thought Neville was an ignoramus about guns . . .
. . . What a maroon!!
No, he's multi-talented. Besides, he did have that meeting a couple of weeks ago with Cheetolini. Maybe they discussed immigrants in addition to guns.
Maybe his whole family can get out of Colorado, and take their RMGO friends with them.
I’m guessing . . .
. . . Nevillooney probably hasn’t ever made that connection, or counted those costs and bodies???
Actually Pols, people are moving out of Colorado in record numbers. Do a search and you'll find a number of articles about it in the past few months. However there are still people moving in, so the effect is its slowed positive net migration.
Although sanctuary city policies and illegal immigration may be a factor for some, the predominant factors of out migration are high housing prices, lack of affordable rentals, traffic and congestion, and increase in crime (felonious crime has increased in the past two years). And although the front range has a very low unemployment rate, many jobs simply do not pay enough to afford the high cost of living.
One woman said she moved here from NJ three years ago and despite having a paralegal degree she couldn't find a job that paid more than $15 an hour and she's moving back to Jersey.
A man said his rent went from $500 month to $1200 in the past 3 years plus they started charging him $25 month for a parking space.
And the powers that be are soliciting Amazon ?

I'm not complaining. And I'm guessing nor are many of the folks who sit in traffic with me on C-470 or I-25.
Before retiring, I was fortunate to be able to telecommute for the last 9 years. The (large multinational) company loaded up my laptop with all the tools needed to communicate with anyone around the world.
The office building where my old desk was located was always a ghost town on the rare occasion that I stopped by. Given the potential cost savings, I'm surprised it's not more popular, at least for a day or two a week. Taking 40% of the cars off the road would make a significant dent in the congestion.
People are always moving in and out, and with a larger population it will always be "in record numbers." This is a false argument, and the fact that Colorado is growing at one of the fastest clips in America is all that matters.
Neville can't justify either his statement or the reason he speculates.
AllynCooper appears to be quoting from a December 2017 Denver Post article.
I can cherry pick a story that supports my original contention:
They moved to Oklahoma, which makes perfect sense
It was that or Idaho.
The GOP has apparently made the political calculation that more than 50% of voters are racists. I couldn't bet against that these days.
These are real, knowable facts that the government spends considerable effort in the Census to collect. Colorado's population is increasing at a rate greater than the rest of the US. American population has increased 5.9% since 2010; Colorado's is up 10.2%.
Percentage change from 2010 – 2016: 10.2%
Percentage change from 2010- 2017 11.5%
Approx. number increased from 2010-2016 ~ 600,000
Mostly young kids, 21% Latino, 10% foreign born. For the Nevilles, then, Colorado's population is 79% non – Latino, and 90% native.
Hardly an invasion from the south.
12% are in poverty, but are "working poor".
It’s why Colorado will likely get an 8th US Congressional seat in 2022, and that it is likely to be where the population growth is concentrated – around Boulder and the tech corridor.
Sorry/Not sorry, Nevilles.
The census is a liberal plot.
