    I wonder how much money was spent to do this "research". I'll bet I could've come to the same conclusion in record time with some research that goes like this, "here's Chicago crime rate and here's Chicago's' gun laws, need I say more?" This concludes my research paper.
    Laws aren't "preventable" measures. IOW, more gun laws won't stop mass shootings.

    That can happen when there's selective enforcement.

    What if they outlaw all the laws they made and made all future laws illegal?

    I think the laws are stupid and ineffective at reducing crime and are an inconvenience overall because it makes me dependent on business hours to transact a simple trade.

    I am thinking that the prog's knew this all along but it did not work, as all of us said.

    It's a flawed study. Their entire metric is based on how many people agree to buy overpriced shit at Tanner.

    The new laws obviously did nothing to reduce your chances of being shot at Tanner.

    I believe the politicians who voted for the laws didn't and still don't care if they were effective. When asked to listen they didn't. When recalled, they didn't care. If they could get more "do nothing but piss off people" laws passed, they would.

    It seems to me that at least half of every legislative session in Colorado is aimed at ways to circumvent TABOR. This is progressive government and more of the citizens of Colorado seem to want it this way.
