What I remember most about these floods, is the incredible stupidity on the part of sightseers.

I saw people duck under the "Police Line - Do Not Cross" tape we had strung along Bear Creek in Jeffco, to go down and get a better look at the water.  I even caught one idiot with his two-year old child toddling around the bank next to the rushing water.

I asked several people that I caught on the wrong side of the tape, "You just ducked under tape that says "Police Line - Do Not Cross.  What do you expect me to do with this?  You DO realize that I could arrest you?".

Dumb, sullen looks in response.  Apparently I was the bad guy.
