    Oops, missed that. For some reason this didn't make the Daily Comrade. Bison Tactical (one of the folks that sued the city) sent out an email that he is selling ARs again.

    Since March, the City of Boulder has been looking for ways to reverse its defeat in the NRA-ILA supported case challenging Boulder?s unlawful bans against commonly owned ?assault weapons? and magazines capable of accepting more than ten rounds.?This week, the City of Boulder finally abandoned its appeal of the lower court?decision?striking Boulder?s unlawful hardware prohibitions. Because Boulder?s appeal was dismissed with prejudice, Boulder cannot attempt to relitigate this case in the future.

    Boulder?s retreat was anything but graceful: when Boulder first attempted to appeal the case directly to the Colorado Supreme Court, the Court denied Boulder?s request and transferred the case to the Colorado Court of Appeals. When Boulder squandered additional taxpayer resources asking the Court of Appeals to effectively start another round of litigation, Boulder?s request was denied as well. After all of these attempts failed, Boulder seems to have finally realized that it could not prevail.

    This is a significant victory for NRA-ILA and self-defense among Boulder?s law-abiding gun owners. If Boulder stubbornly attempts to resurrect its unlawful prohibitions under a?new state law, Boulder faces an uphill battle; again, its case was not simply abandoned, it was dismissed with prejudice. Needless to say, NRA-ILA stands ready to challenge Boulder in both the state house and the court house if Boulder attempts to infringe on the Second Amendment rights of its residents again. But for today, Boulder?s gun owners can breathe a sigh of relief.

    Um, OK...

    The new triple-D special passed this past spring specifically gives municipalities the right to restrict firearms and carry beyond state law.

    Why can't Boulder pass what it wants now?
    The vagrants of Boulder welcome you...

    That would probably be why they are no longer appealing...

    What it Boulder used the taxpayer's money responsibly, like shipping the homeless to Denver. I'm sure there is more of a problem with them than %99.99 of the gun owners in town.

    All true, but at some point in their blind assault against gun owners some thinking people will point out that although there was no concealed carrier present at the time to confront the terrorist at the Table Mesa King Soopers, any city or county actions to prohibit concealed carry will absolutely eliminate any possibility that a terrorist/active shooter can be stopped. If their goal is to make every Boulder citizen a willing victim, that's how they will do it.

    That’s what I was thinking too. That SCOTUS is going to rule on a lot of these issues, you might think that Boulder is holding off so as not to run into issues with new laws. If anything the lefties might try to get things in place now and make people sue to get rid of it.

    They made us targets and victims with the first law. Interesting that the shooter could have travelled anywhere in a 360 degree circle but chose to drive to Boulder where surprise surprise there was a ban on firearms.. yes, the ban had been overturned by the court the week before but that issue was not widely reported and the vast majority of people had no idea that it had happened. So once again Boulder will find a way to tell every nut job in the state that we are unarmed and afraid of guns and are easy unarmed targets.
