Data from Ammoland News indicates Colorado witnessed an exponential increase in firearm homicides after embracing a state-level gun control agenda in 2013.
On February 10, 2013, less than two months after the heinous attack on Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, Breitbart News noted that Colorado Democrats were declaring war on the Second Amendment. That war included bans on “high capacity” magazines, requirements for universal background checks, fees for existing background checks, and allowing victims of gun violence to sue firearm manufacturers for the misuse of weapons.
Since then, Colorado Democrats’ push for gun control has continued unabated. Most recently, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D) signed a semiautomatic ban that represents “one of the most restrictive regulations ever adopted in Colorado,” according to the Colorado Sun.

Ammoland News examined firearm homicides in the state and found there were “86 gun homicides” in 2014 and 237 in 2023. In other words, as restrictions barring law-abiding citizens from purchasing certain guns or magazines increased, so did firearm homicides.

Best thing Magpul did was getting out of CO.
They don’t care.
Meanwhile in India......
“India to Issue Gun Permits Amid Border Tensions”
“India’s Assam state will issue gun licences to “indigenous” residents near the Bangladesh border, its Hindu nationalist leader announced.
The move has raised concerns among Assam’s Muslim population, who make up roughly 35 percent of the state’s 31 million people.”
Something else increased...
Illegal immigration.
BTW, 600+ people died in car crashes in Colorado in 2023.
We gonna ban cars now...?
I suspect you’re being sarcastic, but they really don’t mean well

Sure.
Disarm the public and the shooter knows they have nothing to fear.
Well, who would have thunk it?
Except for everyone with two functioning brain cells.
Disarming people just makes them victims.
This has been the case since year dot and will be the case until the Kingdom of God returns to earth.
True. I don’t think that word means what most people think it means.
Driving too fast to get the heck out of Colorado?
CO ping
PBS panelist: This is a longshot but what if it means the criminals disregard the gun restrictions and only the law abiding citizens follow them?
Panelist: Are you out of your everlovin’ mind, you freak? With all due respect.

Umm.not quite exponential
Unless it’s
86 x square root of 7.6
