Co Dem introduces a bill defending 2nd amendment rights.

[nynco]

I would not go so far to say that he was pro gun. I was more just happy that a Dem was doing something that I felt was pro 2nd Amendment. I agree that the other bill is crap.

Listen right now we have recreational use coming to the whole state. We NEED this bill. No matter whether you are for or against pot it does not matter, the more people that lose their 2nd Amendment rights the worse off we all are. We want more gun owners and shooters so that they become more concerned about this issue. I am sure many of you have changed peoples minds when you took them out shooting. After Jan 1st I am betting 50% of this state may no longer be eligible to own a firearm. Once that becomes accepted in the mind of that many people that they can't own guns... well kiss your rights good bye.

The legislation is good. It should have been started by a republican to draw pothead support to conservatives. Now a pos gets the credit. I do hope it passes and I hope polis is jobless in 2014.

[Kraven251]

the legislation is a prequel to address the issue of recreational use, that does not require a card, it also just means that people that start buying it recreationally after Jan 1, will just lie on the form like people have for years

The people that went through the steps to get the card, legit need or not, are the ones being punished. I don't honestly give a shit about the legalization or use of mj, but this keeps the mj crowd going to the polls. When they show up to the polls, our way of thinking is at a distinct disadvantage every time.

As for the politician, he is a snake. As for Nynco, his point is valid. The more we make it an us vs. them issue the more we lose. They have the education system; they are a Supreme Court Justice from fucking us; they have the ability to shroud idiocy as fact(even when the numbers do not support it); all the while painting our side of the fence as war mongering, secessionist minded, anti-government, whack jobs. Every shooting big or small they will attempt to hang it around our necks, even when largely the problem has come their side of the mindset.

Anytime these scumbags work to strip themselves and the institution of a bit of power, it is a small chip taken out of the nanny state. Would I vote for him, no way, but I do support the idea.

2A rights for potheads doesn't mean anything when even private sales require a 4473 now, since that is a federal form, and it's still illegal on a federal level.

Polis is in Congress. Federal. I support this legislation and the reclassifying of marijuana so that it can removed from the current prohibition. Once it is reclassified that question will no longer be on the 4473. I do not support Jared Polis and I clearly understand his politics and I hope that the republicans will run a qualified replacement for him at election time. I am squarely in support of the second amendment and that is the standard that I use to support any candidate in any election: Is this candidate a friend of the second amendment? No other consideration will I use to rate a candidate. Freedom first, last and always.

Flip flip and knee jerk reaction is what Democrats do. Their last term of any seat is when their real agenda comes out.


Sorry.
