Even if there was such a thing as a "good" democrat, they're not going to defy the party to vote against the party line, without party permission (ie: permissible sometimes if the party knows a bill will pass and they allow it to make the representative look good to constituents).

    The democrat party is evil, plain and simple. They're gonna get their gun ban in Colorado, one way or another. It may not be this one, but they're gonna get it.

    While I do agree, mostly, with your comments in that this thing called the Democratic party and their work on destroying out 2A rights, Gov Polis is a Democrat and the Governor.
    So he is "part of their system" not separate from it.

    Likewise, I agree, it isn't just one person behind these gun control laws. So it isnt really effective to focus distain or hatred solely towards one.
    There are several house/Senators who have made it their "bread and butter" to introduce and push one worthless law after another.
    But Gov Polis is the Gov and, in effect, the leader of the Dems in Colorado.
    So yes, he does deserve having some of the frustration directed towards him.

    I agree. The leftists groom their politicians from the time they begin their political careers to put the party before the constituents. With similarly crappy/onerous bills being pushed through the state assemblies in Washington, Oregon, New Mexico, and Illinois (those are off the top of my head) I wonder if this is a vetting process by "the bosses" to see who they will support/advance next year and in 2028.

    This passed the second reading late Friday night.


    It will pass the third...

    Then go back to Senate to revote with the amendments.

    It will pass.


    Then what will happen is Polis wont sign it. It will go into law by default since he wont veto it. He can have it both ways. He didnt sign it into law so there is no attack there. He got his gun control.


    It sounds like the amendments move implementation out for a year until sometime in summer of 2026.

    Gives them time to get all the computer stuff sorted out- which, they won't, and it will be a mess for another couple of years with so many agencies involved.

    Maybe saner heads will prevail in the courts.

    Although I doubt it.
