Highlights-
Democrats have retained their statehouse majority and are emboldened to press forward with more new gun regulations.
...planning to introduce at least three pieces of gun-control legislation this year, including a measure that would require a waiting period, potentially of five days, between when someone purchases a firearm and when they can access that weapon.
The other two bills would require gun owners to safely store their weapons and to report to authorities if one of their firearms is lost or stolen.
"...if we can keep (guns) out of their hands for just a couple of days, there's a good chance we can save some lives," he said.
The legislation would impose fines and potentially even jail time on gun owners who don't use a safe, trigger lock or cable lock when their weapons are being stored. It also would also require gun shops to distribute trigger or cable locks with every sale or transfer of a firearm.

Who wouldn't call the cops if a gun was stolen. As for lost, it usually takes the spouse about 10 min to find where i left it.
Gun locks? they are included with every new gun purchase and the p.d. offers then for free.
Double down CO legislature, double down

Well I?m sure they need to know how many are the bottom of the lakes here with all the boating accidents that occur.

Storage/liability was IIRC the one bill they did not push hard to get through last time.

If I already own a gun, of what use is a waiting period?

Stop using logic....
That waiting period does apply to STOLEN guns too, right?
seems to me, as of late, we've already got a "waiting" period, since our 15 minute wait has turned into 1, 2, 3+ days.
No new laws needed.
Can they make it illegal to steal guns? That might solve the problem?

Wait until “they” mandate your CCW must have a trigger lock when carried. You know, to save a life and all ...
I will not comply with any mandated locking requirements. I lock my front door, that is enough.

Already proposed on the Federal level.
From Biden's website- https://joebiden.com/gunsafety/
Make sure firearm owners take on the responsibility of ensuring their weapons are used safely.
Put America on the path to ensuring that 100% of firearms sold in America are smart guns. Today, we have the technology to allow only authorized users to fire a gun. For example, existing smart gun technology requires a fingerprint match before use. Biden believes we should work to eventually require that 100% of firearms sold in the U.S. are smart guns. But, right now the NRA and gun manufacturers are bullying firearms dealers who try to sell these guns. Biden will stand up against these bullying tactics and issue a call to action for gun manufacturers, dealers, and other public and private entities to take steps to accelerate our transition to smart guns.
My old Iphone was a touch ID. It didn't work at least twice a day. But I'm sure fingerprint ID will work when you need it on a firearm.

They want the ability to charge you if your firearms are stolen from your residence. Its your fault that the bad man broke into your house to steal your stuff.
My guns are already smart guns.
Smart is kind of a relative term. If I compare them to politicians they already seem pretty damn smart.

That?s funny. Anyone who works with their hands a lot is screwed with any technology that relies on fingerprints. There would be stretches of time where I would have to enter my password because apparently my fingerprint was illegible.

Now you're just talking crazy! Next thing you'll be wanting convicted felons to serve longer sentences if they're found with a gun.

Let's just make theft illegal! No one would break a law. Problem solved

Pass all the laws they want. I ain’t gonna follow them.
Just a bit of wisdom: Avoid mentioning online, one's desire not to follow any given law.
"the internet" remembers what you say far longer than anyone else. Treat the internet like it's your vindictive ex-wife with the memory of an elephant, and you'll do well in life.
