    Stolen car, warrant, drugs, etc... POS doesn't need a reason. Some exist only to kill, steal, and destroy.

    As I've said, I'm damned grateful we don't have to deal with these people in the streets and it's the reason we should stay armed.

    Glad the criminal will be 6 foot under and not milking tax payers for the rest of his life.

    The media jumped all over the nutcase in Highlands Ranch and how he got his guns, but nothing with these other two so far.
    The Douglas County guy was a crazy person where law enforcement had little ability in previous cases to do something or charge the person with serious crimes. He wasn't trying to get away he was barricaded to ambush and knew he would probably die (or maybe he was so crazy he didn't).

    The last two were criminals doing criminal stuff. Weapons possession was probably already illegal in addition to the other crimes they were committing. The media can't do anything with that.

    Ohhh, so they were criminals already living a criminal type life... Man, I wonder how they passed those two background checks to get their guns? The dems made me pay for an extra background check last time I purchased a gun, wonder why these guys were exempt?

    I'm thinking we are talking about two different things. From what I understand the guy yesterday was a car thief (criminal behavior). The guy in Adams County has a lengthy criminal history as well. I don't remember the off the top of my head what they were attempting to contact him for immediately prior to the shooting other than a disturbance. It is my understanding that he is a felon and was illegally in possession of a weapon.

    Why do you keep mentioning two background checks?

    Because you have to pass two of them to buy a gun these days in Colorado. And you get to pay for the state one.

    Guys, my point is simply that the media will not do a story on how these killers got their guns unless it came from some gunshow type thing. Our background checks are not working, as criminals clearly obtain their weapons without getting a BGC done.

    I am waiting for some legislator in Denver to try and push some gun control thing in light of these 3 sad situations. Yet the media will not point out that these killers don't follow any law that would be created. I am sure I am preaching to the choir here...

    This is really upsetting. I have a lot of friends and family in law enforcement. All of you out there in law enforcement, please stay safe!
