Um, you just made my point - people need to read the legislation. They can make an arrest only if they witness it happening or about to happen, or if asked to do so by a Colorado law enforcement official. You would no doubt find similar laws granting similar permissions to FBI agents, BATF agents, and other federal law enforcement officials.

And why wouldn't the Colorado authorities be enforcing state laws?

Why must they enforce every law passed? You should read up on “checks and balances” and the history of the United states and the US Constitution. We are not a legislative dictatorship.

Um, because the CO state gun laws that were just passed are unlawful & unconstitutional! What part of the 2nd Amendment "shall not infringe" don't you understand?
