It sucks, but we will never see the gun laws change in our favor here in CO now.
CO has become a blue state, and will stay that way, especially with the changes in the voting system and constitutional amendments this last election cycle.
Our best bet is to somehow separate the Denver area inside the beltway from the rest of the state. Do that and all problems are solved.
I guess California has been struggling with this for years though. Wasn't someone pushing this a few years back?
I see it as a challenge to overcome not a no win situation.
