Boulder AR-15 Ban

[FromMyColdDeadHand]

If you believe or think the jackal is content to walk away from the carcass with it only 1/2 eaten, you're fooling yourself. This isn't about "concessions" from the anti-gun side.
This is part of what i call the Anti-gun 5 yr plan. Or as others call it Death by 1000 cuts.
Sure we'll agree to these modest proposals, now. You get this Kennedy or Polis as .gov. What Boulder will sign off (wink, wink) on is merely the beginning

YAA!!!!!! Rah-rah. I just waved an American flag and light of a party popper.

Now back to reality playing out in real time.

You want to lose it all or only some. This is democracy (ETA: at the local level). You get what you can get with 50%+1 vote. What you say is exactly true, but this isn't like the national game where you have two sides to play against each other- and we hold the majority. This is 100% against us and they could vote in CA/NJ/NY level of stupidity if they wanted to.

That would show them!!!! ???? You willing to live under the same restrictions as Boulder if the 'deal' doesn't pass? I'd love to have this deal in Denver, better than what we have.

Elections have consequences. The reps we have will vote the way they want. We could all wish it wasn't this way, but this is reality. Until you get a SCOTUS decision that lays down sharp lines, keep as much as you can as long as you can. Someone else can be the test case. Northbridgelakepark or whatever in Chicago is a great one.

I really think there isn't a deal. I don't know why they would make one. When Bloomberg's people hear about it, they will come down HARD on anyone not toeing the line. Happened in Denver when there was a consensus on council for the smallest of a moderation on the 15 round confiscation.

You realize that Bloomberg's people would see this as a huge victory for the gun rights side?

Fondled or raped?

I'm all about the foreplay.

This deal is anything but certain at this point.

Are those people brokering the "deal" from the 2A side also agreeing not to sue based on pre-emption?

I'm not sure.

Yea, yea. So original. You have a bad deal and a worse deal.



Your plan is for someone else to take the worse deal. Great plan. You're screaming 'or death' for the guy in line in front of you. How brave and noble. I forgot, what's the song and poem they wrote about that...

There is no compromise. There are no two sides on that council. That the law could go from what it was to what was mentioned with out any real power is kind of amazing. In Boulder of all places.

The RMGO mental-midget, all-or-nothing attitude is really self defeating.

I know this is the interwebs and people spout off absolutist positions and posture to make themselves feel big and good, but sweet Jesus- when will our community understand the nature of local politics. Don't want this position, elect different people. Crap and one hand and wishes in the other...

But sure, let's martyr someone else..

ETA: The title of this thread is 'AR15 Ban' and it could be "Get a CCW". Death or Cake.

Should we have said no to CCW until we got constitutional carry?

CCW law was a gain, not a loss.
