There are realities here you don't want to face. This is mainly that the political demographics of your state are changing, not for the better, and this is affecting the political realities. Despite your pissyness about what I'm saying it sounds like that's exactly what your trying to do, but having only limited effect, because of the issue I stated above. | |||

And now that you have said what you have to say, get the fuck out of this thread. A negative Nancy is what you were, pages and pages ago, but now you are just being an asshole. I'm pretty sure none of us care what you have to say anymore. | |||

So, what, you're not going to tell us how you removed all those governors, railroaded the antis out of your state and changed the electorate to a Pro-2A position? You're going to withhold your magnificent political strategies from us? I'm ignoring political reality? My previous post just laid out the political reality here in Colorado. I'd say you're the one ignoring political reality... or at least conceding to it. In regards to my so-called "pissyness":
... and these are only from previous exchanges and don't include posts from the current one. BBMW, do you realize you've managed to make more posts in this one thread than every other active and closed thread combined in the Gun Control forum? So, since you wouldn't answer my previous questions, how 'bout you answer this one? What gives? How does this thread warrant all this special attention from you? What is it that compels you to make the time to frequent this thread over the last 2.5 years and say the same thing over and over again? Did you get a speeding ticket in Colorado? Did you get busted on a pot conviction before it was legalized? Did a valet refuse to validate your parking stub while you were here? Or maybe its me, did we bump heads in another thread because I don't remember it. In fact, I remember supporting an observation you made in the Japan immigration thread. Perhaps you are willing to lay down and concede your constitutional rights when infringed... we here, however, are not and we will use every legal tool at our disposal... whether it meets with your approval or not.This message has been edited.

Let make this clear. I would like to see you succeed. At one point I thought about CO as someplace I'd want to move to. The (previously) fairly loose gun laws were one of the reasons I was thinking about it. But obviously that changed. And I can see why. But, really, do whatever you can do. Best of luck. | |||

Thank you. It really is a nice place to live and if you ever decide to move here I hope you'll join us in this fight. The more Pro-2A gun owners we can get to join us the better. | |||

An update from the NRA: "As previously reported, House Bill 1024, a bill which would have repealed the unnecessary restriction on the amount of ammunition a firearm magazine can hold, was postponed indefinitely by the House Committee on State, Veterans and Military Affairs. However, the Senate has also introduced a bill to repeal this arbitrary limit on firearm magazine capacities, Senate Bill 113. SB 113 has been scheduled for a hearing in the Senate State, Veterans, and Military Affairs Committee on Wednesday, March 23 at 1:30pm in room 356 of the Colorado State Capitol Building.

I just ran across this. Apparently, Kopel and the sheriffs are getting another bite at the apple. 2013 Colorado Guns Laws Might Be Back In Court After Ruling By Ben Markus on 03/22/2016 - 10:02pm The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday threw out a 2014 federal court ruling that upheld new Colorado gun laws. Tuesday's ruling means sheriffs who oppose the ban on high-capacity magazines and private sale background checks expect to be back in court soon. And they plan to take advantage of that second chance, according to one of their attorneys -- David Kopel with the Independence Institute. "The constitution is the same today as the day we filed the case, and we intend to vindicate the constitution and remove these unconstitutional stains from on Colorado’s statute books," Kopel said. In an odd twist, the appeals court threw out the decision that upheld the gun laws because the sheriffs and others lacked standing to bring the case. "The score has been reset," Kopel said. "We look forward to bringing the new case following the 10th Circuit’s rules on standing that it announced today." The plaintiffs could not prove that the new restrictions harmed them.

Meant to post this yesterday, but got busy. Another NRA-ILA update: "House Bill 1024, a bill which would have repealed the unnecessary restriction on the amount of ammunition a firearm magazine can hold, was postponed indefinitely by the House Committee on State, Veterans and Military Affairs. However, the Senate has also introduced a bill to repeal this arbitrary limit on firearm magazine capacities, Senate Bill 113. SB 113 has been scheduled for a hearing in the Senate State, Veterans, and Military Affairs Committee on Wednesday, March 30 at 1:30 p.m., in room 356 of the Colorado State Capitol Building. Please contact members of the Senate State, Veterans, and Military Affairs Committee and politely urge them to support SB 113!" Mike You can run, but you cannot hide.

I have been looking for information about SB113, and no one seems to be saying anything, but, I did find this: http://www.leg.state.co.us/CLI...sSenate?openFrameset Looks like it passed yesterday 3-2, now it is off to the Committee as a Whole. A step in the right direction . Mike You can run, but you cannot hide. If you won't stand behind our troops, feel free to stand in front of them. | |||

Per the NRA-ILA today: "Tomorrow, the Colorado Senate is scheduled to consider Senate Bill 113, a piece of legislation that would repeal the arbitrary and misguided ban on firearm magazines capable of holding more than 15 rounds of ammunition. It is important that you contact your state Senator and politely urge them to support Senate Bill 113 when it comes up for a vote." Mike You can run, but you cannot hide.

And this from the NRA-ILA just now: "Today, the Colorado Senate passed Senate Bill 113 by a 20-13 vote. SB 113 would repeal the arbitrary and misguided ban on firearm magazines capable of holding more than 15 rounds of ammunition. Now, SB 113 will be sent to the House where it will await a committee referral. Please contact your state Representative and politely urge them to support House Bill 113."

BP, thanks for keeping on top of this. Here's the ILA article on this. There's links to the NRA's compose email tool and a link to the Colorado .gov web tool to find your representative in the page.
