I think that I'm gonna regret PCS'ing there after all. On the other hand, I'm hoping that the gov realizes that they have made a mistake and repeal the law.
Any other updates on this?
I found this one:

Apparently, this DMA is filing suit against the CO law in Federal court.
Thoughts?
Sounds pretty straight forward and logical to me....Quote:
The Direct Marketing Association (DMA) is hoping that 10-1193 will be short-lived. Yesterday, it filed suit in federal court. It believes that the Colorado law must be struck down because it:
Jerry Cerasale, the DMA's SVP of Government Affairs stated, "The new law and the regulations implementing it are an unconstitutional and blatant violation of Colorado consumers’ privacy."
- Discriminates against interstate commerce;
- Exceeds the permissible scope of state regulatory authority over out-of-state companies;
- Violates the right to privacy of Colorado consumers;
- Infringes upon the free speech and due process rights of both consumers and retailers; and
- Exposes confidential consumer information to the risk of unauthorized disclosure.
Oh, wait... were dealing with the gov....
My mistake.

I think that the buyer is responsible for paying the government for stuff you buy. I don't think the seller collects it so don't pay it either.
After a recent court case where the judge disregarded 200 years of contract law and screwed me over I don't have any faith in the Colorado Court System.
I'm getting to the point of getting a stick and chasing all the butt bashing Commieforyains hippys to the state line.
