The Friday introduction of the bill came as Denver high school students marched on the Colorado Capitol building to protest gun violence after the death of a fellow student, The Colorado Sun reported.

The bill would prohibit the “manufacturing, importing, purchasing, selling, offering to sell, or transferring ownership of an assault weapon” and ban possession of “a rapid-fire trigger activator,” according to the summary text.

A top Democrat sponsor of the bill, state Rep. Andrew Boesenecker, took his name off the bill amid tensions in the state House over its provisions and frustration over its progress, The Denver Post reported.

And I’m sure this law would have stopped the Columbine High School and Littleton movie theatre shootings from happening (do I really need to indicate the sarc?).

No wonder High School Snowflakes are so stupid these days. They spend the time they should be learning in school being a pain in the ass for local traffic. Brainwashed retards.

Polis-Shults is the only one that called himself a libertarian. He is a product of WEF junior leader training with a large bank account to buy his elections.

Ask a liberal, “What is an assault weapon?”

Their answer, “It’s a big, black, scary-looking thingy!!!”

What is an assault weapon? Sounds vague. If someone gets clocked using an iron skillet, does that mean iron skillets are suddenly contraband?

More idiocy from the anti-freedom communists.

It has the shoulder thing that goes up, and weighs as much as ten boxes that you might be carrying.
