    Default We need you at the Capitol on Monday the 4th for the Senate to hear the anti gun bills plus new!!!

    From Gun Rights Across American Colorado FB page:

    "THE WORD. Here it is folks. I just got word that the four bills will hit the senate Monday. Heres the catch, we dont know if they will start at 9:30 or 1:30 but it is coming. On top of these bills, they will be introducing one or two more, maybe an assault weapons ban. If this is from John Morse sure makes me question why hes doing this. We need everyone to show up on Monday, early, like 9 or so. Prepare to spend the day, bring snacks, and stand up or they will take everything we have. Now, to prove my point. California is trying to pass a law to, get this, confiscate ALL semi auto firearms. If you have more then 500 rds of ammo you are violating the law. If someone lives in your house and cannot legally own a gun and you have a gun you are both felons. This is serious, we have to win here or we are in serious trouble. Make no mistake, they want us disarmed. You absolutely have to show up monday and be counted. The governor and antigunners have to see how serious and committed we are. I will give you more after our meetings on Friday. Make plans now to attend. Tell everyone you can. We will have youtube posted tomorrow afternoon. Make plans to be there, call me if you need to. DD"

    From the website www.graac.webs.com

    "This is it!!! We need you at the Capitol for the Senate on Monday, March 4th.
    Take the day off and bring as many people as possible to the Senate. They will be reading the 4 anti-gun bills and might also introduce NEW anti-gun bills even worse than the first ones. You do not necessarily need to testify, but we need a massive number of people to show their presence to oppose these bills.
    The governor and Senators need to see that we will not tolerate this infringement of our rights and they will be voted out! We need to unite and show them that we are a strong force not to be ignored.
    If there was anytime to show our unity, it is on this day. We need to make more of an impact on this day than all the rallies and events put together.

    This is it. If they pass these bills, we will have lost.
    Come to the Capitol and don't use parking meters because you will most likely be guaranteed to get a huge ticket since the meter will expire. Carpool and pay to use a parking lot. Bring a water bottle and snacks and plan to spend as much time as possible. Plan for a long day. If you cannot come for the whole day, come for as much as you can, but at least show up. Try to arrive no later than 9:00am.

    It might cost you a vacation day or a sick day, but what is your freedom worth to you? What is the freedom of your children and grandchildren worth? Certainly at least one day off of work! We need you! Colorado needs you!"

    Hearings start at 1:30 (13:30). 2 seperate committees hearing different bills. Divide and conquer.

    The only reason to go down there is so that they can tell you to fuck off in person.

    That's exactly correct. Beating a dead horse.

    Our American freedom was not won having those kinds of attitudes. Yes, I agree that it feels hopeless, but we can at least fight until the end. What harm is there in trying? We need to encourage one another to keep fighting! If you have already given up, then please don't discourage others who might still have some fight left in their spirit. It's not over yet!

    Don't give up! Who knows if you might be the one or two people who showed up that would tip the scales? Don't underestimate the power of one single person. There is strength in numbers. We need you! : )

    Fmedges and milwaukeeshaker, if y'all truly feel this is a lost cause and a waste of time fine. Nobody twisting your arms to show up anywhere or do anything. But you don't do anyone any good crapping on people that are still trying to do something.

    Instead of throwing wet blankets on people why don't you just head over to realtor.com and monster.com and start planning your exodus from Colorado while you STFU.

    I will actually be in town for this. I will clear my schedule and head down.

    Anyone (or 10) want to put together a well organized and cohesive message. i.e. 10 of us saying the same things in slightly different ways. Let me know and I will coordinate.
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    This. Does anyone really think they give a flying Fuck. The Democrats will pass whatever they have the votes for. Dickenlooper will sign them

    Or if he is feeling the heat will just run the clock and let them become law.

    Co is just kali east or ny/nj west

    Pha America was won with guns blood and tears. Words on paper don't mean shit unless you are willing to kill and/or die for them.

    Scary thought I know. But just look at the deaths in gun free zones or rapes in safe areas if you think otherwise.

    Eta. I don't think less of people who do show up, quite the contrary. But one has to accept the fact that yea they don't give a Fuck what you say. They are willing to lose millions and approx 700 jobs from magpul. Given that how much stock will be given to a bunch of bitter clingers?

    +1. Do what you want to make yourselves feel like you have a voice, but your pleas to your masters are not heard. I did not shit on anybody, I'm just pointing out the facts. If you'd like to make me STFU, I'm going to be at the Marine memorial this Saturday. Hope to see you there.
