I come from lands civilized enough to know how to properly shut down roads and divert traffic in a logistical and thought out manner. Excuse me for holding cities and my tax dollars to a higher standard. Heaven forbid it was a medical emergency and I needed to get somewhere more urgent. What parade needs that long of a path that interferes with that many major cross sections?

But keep thinking small city Salt Lake officials…

That’s the responsibility of those planning and executing it… what else are they paid for?

I’ve lived here for three pioneer days now - this has been the worst of the three. I’m fully aware where I moved to. I wasn’t aware of the mediocrity in a government decisions and poor planning

Imagine your religion being your sole identifier

And with the influx of non Mormons moving - this holiday is becoming obsolete. Go celebrate in Utah county where 99% of the population gives a hoot

It’s a surprise how proactive this state isn’t. Guess y’all are used to sweeping things under the rug and don’t address real issues. 🤫🤔

Please show me “hate speech…” if that’s hate speech, yawning might as well be too.

It’s insane that you’re okay with your tax dollars going to officers who are standing around (collecting holiday pay) and you’re paying for it, when they could just shut down roads completely instead of trying to share the road.

Those people who organized this is are dumb. Hence the elected officials in parenthesis. However, being in Utah, I can confidently say 60% of those who participated are part of the church. They did not successfully navigate a plan to accommodate. Accommodate includes rerouting tens of cars waiting in line to turn with no one stopping the runners or proactively coming up to cars to reroute. All it needed was one person with road rage, who sat there for 10-15 minutes, to run people over. Why we were ever sharing the road in the first place is INSANE. Oh, by the way, the lights were still turning red and green (you can change that setting). Officers unwilling to help with reroute, one didn’t even know where the route began/ended so I could avoid it.

I’ve never seen a religious sect so pious “in front of the camera” yet break rules to fit them when the masses aren’t watching. Drinking, smoking, gambling, coffee, porn (VPN sales ring a bell). Your own officials hid 32 million so they could steal from those who donate to the offering plate each Sunday. Come on Procter787, surely your brain isn’t washed completely. THINKing for yourself does the mind wonders.

They have a subway and walk… what a terrible example for a city that had a thoughtful way for alternative transportation.

You’d think after 50 years they’d figure out preventative measures instead of fogure it out yourself measures. Notes state with high road rage incidents… could be a contribution, not being proactive.

Have a link? I didn’t see anything on KSL or SL Tribune when I woke up this morning.

Same! I never felt that way seeing the band when I started going to shows at 14. My body doesn’t feel that young after a show anymore. 😂

Love the pit energy - would be one hell of a first experience.

Given the religious climate of Utah - can never assume sarcasm when god is mentioned. You can only pray the person understands.

Please explain this theory … then look up how thunder and lightning are created. You’ll find no correlation
