--a dark day for Colorado--

[albie]

Most days are “dark” days for Colorado

[No name given]

Ever since the state was infested by refugees from Commiefornia.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I remember when Colorado was a free state. then the liberals from California ruined it.

The Second Amendment does not require permission from the government.

[kawhill]

to allow purchases if an individual secures a “firearms safety course eligibility card” from their local sheriff department and then completes a qualifying firearm education course. I did that when I was ten years old.

[FlingWingFlyer]

If I lived there, they could look at my DD214 and shove all that other stuff where the sun doesn’t shine. God Blessed Texas.

[bantam]

Why are my 2nd Amendment rights dependent on taking some class, where if you want an abortion, just just get one?

[Luke21]

No judge will stop it.

[llevrok]

This is the direction Washington state has been going

The curious thing is, gun violence has increased dramatically.

That’s illegally obtained gun violence. Laws preventing that have been greatly loosened

[Ronald77]

Is this in the Constitution? Oh, wait, only what the democrats say is in the Constitution is allowed.

[LouAvul]

Correct me if I'm mistaken. Initially the bill was to outlaw the sale and/or purchase of semiauto rifles and/or shotguns that used a detachable magazine.

But the bill was amended to where the sale and/or purchase of the above is still legal, but the purchaser has to receive a "permit to buy" from the sheriff and the purchaser has to take a firearms class?

[rktman]

Roger that!

I too took a Hunter Safety class as a young teen. I don’t think it was related to my purchase of a gun.

Here in Washington state they will no doubt pass this permit and training to purchase a firearm. All told they estimate the cost will be about $250. And that permit and training is only good for 5 years. And no exemptions for current or former military.

Gang bangers, if caught with a stolen firearm, will probably still get the overnight stay in jail and released for a trial at some unspecified later date.

There was some guy that carjacked and killed a woman that was caught a few months ago. He had 8 prior felony arrests!

“The curious thing is, gun violence has increased dramatically.”

Crime in Colorado is through the roof. There are so many foreigners here you wonder if it’s the U. S. Bums on every corner too.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

I guess all the cowboys in Colorado have moseyed on over to Wyoming, the Cowboy State.
Colorado's new motto is "The Brokeback State".

It will be struck down.

[Nifster]

It happened long before that
