    John seems to be under the crazy idea that courts care about logic or impartiality.

    He is suffering from something called 'confirmation bias' (the tendency of people to favor information that confirms their beliefs or hypotheses). If you asked people supporting the other side they would say that they were definitely going to win -- for all the same reasons.
    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?

    Courts care about logic but they don't care if the reasons for passing the bill are fallacies. Time for that is when the bill is being debated before passage. Once it reaches the courts it comes down to does the law violate some other higher priority law (like the constitution) not why it was passed.

    Geez. Was this all supported by the North Colorado businesses only? Sure sounds like it from the letter.

    Thanks to Bill and his team!

    Let's hope fact wins out over emotion. I know, I'm asking a lot.


    Just an aside; The font that letter was written in is just plain annoying. Just sayin'.

    The last part of his letter concerns "legal ways to insure that customers have access to magazines of greater than 15 rounds" by purchasing them in Wyoming.
    Wouldn't this still be technically illegal?

    For the buyer yes, not for the seller. (assuming buyer is a CO resident)

    I'd say Liberty Arms is doing a better job of skirting the 15+ round magazine law than Jensen Arms seeing as how I can't legally go to Wyoming to buy 15+ round magazines and then transport them to Colorado. I surprised Jensen's even brought the topic up.
