Boulder AR-15 Ban

[def90]

The City Council will be going over their gun ban proposal on Thursday Apr 5th at 6:00. I plan on attending. I have already contacted all of the members and have had a discussion with one of them. I have added a list of members if you haven't voiced your opinion yet.

For those of you who think this is just a stupid Boulder issue, take note that if they get away with it by claiming "home rule" override to the states's gun law preemption statute, the following cities can do just the same by a simple progressive majority on the city council:

Alamosa
Arvada
Aspen
Aurora
Avon
Black Hawk
Breckenridge
Brighton
Burlington
Canon City
Carbondale
Castle Rock
Cedaredge
Centennial
Central City
Cherry Hills Village
Colorado Springs
Commerce City
Cortez
Craig

The list just keeps going...

Ban guns in the city of Boulder period?

Ban guns in the city of Boulder period?

No, some flavor of "assault weapons" ban, plus bump stocks, crank triggers, etc. The kicker could be an attempt to do a max 7 rd mag limit, like the original NY Safe Act.

I'll be at this meeting, and I plan on speaking. I'm going to draft an email this week, as well.

This violates at least 2 of the Colorado Revised Statutes (no firearms databases/registration, state preemption) and as mentioned above, if unsuccessfully challenged opens the door for municipal legislation statewide.

I really hope some organization has enough resources to sue.

Boulder needs a good kick in the pantsuit.

So many issues with this. The proposed law is not enforceable.

This wording basically says you compete, you're exempt. How da fuk are "they" going to verify that???

Carr has recommended exemptions for weapons owned by police, federal officers, military personnel; holders of federal firearms licenses, stamps or permits; and competitive shooters who are members of organized groups that gather for the purpose of competition.


Now this is the part that should concern everyone. How will a LE dept whose CLEO is against guns educate people??




Anyone found in violation of that would be first "educated and informed" by police,

They do not know what they are doing. This is not a well written law, this is not ok.
