If I lived in Colorado, I'd be asking my state legislators to support this bill. If I were a legislator, I would be voting for it. I'd like to hear more specifics, but this guy seems to have done the right thing. His specifics seem to be that he won't let demonstrably crazy people carry. Everyone else may exercise this important right.

Good luck to the Senator and the sensible people of Colorado. Statistics in Florida should move more states to reconsider the Bill of Rights. There are more issues that have been clouded over by bad politics than just the 2nd Amendment but that is probably the best foundation.

This was from an elected offical from CO? Wow! He'd better be careful when he goes back home, he's likely to be shot by an anti-gun type! Way too many Socialists have moved to CO, and it used to be a nice state too!

He should have submitted this bill a long time ago, when Colorado was more of a conservative state.

There are too many liberal democrats from California, the east, and Mexico now living there - it is now questionable whether or not this will pass with the current voters that now live there. In the Columbine shootings, not one single parent, uncle, or mother had the courage to go in there and get her kids out before they were shot - instead they all waited for hours listening to the kids get shot. A conservative would just not stand outside watching police hiding behind fire trucks and listen to his kids get murdered. I was in Boulder for a month and it was almost impossible to find any conservatives there. Same thing with the ski towns, they are now all liberal cities.

The Second Amendment is a personal right of the individual, a right to self-defense. To believe otherwise is to believe that while our nation's founders constructed all of the other nine amendments to the Bill of Rights to protect individuals, this one alone protects government.

Even though he's probably not the first person to say this, this is a great point IMHO.
