As the article points out, the Q Club shooter was 22 years old and so this law would have done nothing to prevent this shooting.it?s never about addressing the root causes, just an emotional reflex to play on the heart strings of a sheepish population who can seek solace in legislation that will do little in my humble opinion to curb gun violence. Same goes with the ?waiting period? law forthcoming. Same crap, just a different day.
?And let?s be real here, some 18-year-olds who want a gun will basically commit straw buys and it?ll be explained as a gift, thus bypassing the law here.
In other words, as per usual, nothing will be accomplished.
Yet the fact that those who are inclined to follow the law will be the only ones inhibited by this will perpetually be missed.
It?s been noted that the Club Q shooting provided at least some impetus for passing this law, which is interesting since that shooter was 22 at the time of the shooting, which means he wouldn?t have been tripped up by this law in the least.
So Colorado created a two-tier citizenship system all because of a shooting that such a system wouldn?t have prevented even if it had been the rule for decades. Absolutely nothing about that is shocking, though, because we know what happens after a mass shooting. Anti-gun lawmakers use it as a pretext to push for the laws they wanted all alone. They don?t care about addressing what happened, only about preventing people from having guns as much as possible.?
