Even though the paper supports the UBC they at least understand some of what happened during the gun debate hearings

Whether you champion their cause or not, the way in which they were treated during this legislative season was shabby at best. Colorado lawmakers had the perfect opportunity to invite these front-line experts to the table to help draft the legislation.And yet they were reduced to bystanders with no recourse other than to stage protests. They had no voice in crafting the bills.

The sheriffs are right when they say that someone temporarily storing a gun at a friend's house if they're evacuated from their home would violate the law. The legislation was not drafted with day-to-day realities in mind.
