How can a state such as Colorado control avalanches?

Law
1 answer:

Answer: They can use mortars, a weapon that shoots an explosive projectile into the snowpack, causing it to fall when there is no danger to property or people below

Explanation:

Colorado is known for its ski resorts which are some of the best in the country but this comes with some risk as Colorado has seen a lot of death from avalanches in the state.

To reduce these unfortunate incidents, the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) is very proactive when it comes to avalanche control.

One way they control avalanches is to use explosives. One sort of explosives they have is the mortar which they are able to direct into a snowpack such that it explodes and dislodges the pack, causing it to fall where there is little danger to people and property.

What is your opinion or belief as to the Electoral College vote process for the Presidential Elections?
stiks02 [169]
I personally disagree with the Electoral College. It was a system that worked 200 years ago. The system now just doesn’t work because we have all these things like mail in voting, claimed election fraud, etc. Not only that but the electoral college could have a bias against a candidate. If you look at Hilary Clinton for example. She ran for President in 2016 but ended up losing the Electoral College vote but won the popular vote. Now she is an electoral college member which obviously, she wouldn’t vote for trump. The only reason the Electoral College is because the original framers said that the president and Vice President should be decided by a set group of people. Which today, is the Electoral College. Hope this helps!
