1638628331439665154 | @MikeJohnstonCO This is a terrible hot take. Staff members got shot because a teenager had access to a gun. Root causes do not include "no metal detectors" or no officers present to do daily pat down searches. | 7 |

1639073514316611584 | The only candidate for #DenverMayor to tell 9NEWS they support taxpayer dollars going to build a new stadium for the Denver Broncos is @MikeJohnstonCO. Johnston said voters would need to approve and he would not say if he'd campaign for the measure. #copolitics https://t.co/cNOywOF0LX | 5 |

1638636012552491008 | @MikeJohnstonCO Mike, this is a disappointing take. Metal detectors are not an answer and I don't want to see them in schools. We're not jails or prisons. Armed police officers are not the answer and I don't want them. Find ways to make sure kids like this don't get guns in the first place. | 28 |
