Boulder AR-15 Ban

[spqrzilla]

boxy, there is no such "deal". Not least because Boulder can't enforce any of that nonsense outside of their jurisdiction. So for example, a ban on purchase under 21 is just utterly stupid since its not a far drive to the county line and last time I checked they let 18-20 year old drive cars.

Why are you here trying to pass off this load of horse manure?

It's relevant information to the topic at hand. It's completely ok to form your own opinion on it.

It's ok for everyone to form their own opinion. You have your's, others see it differently. I'm willing to see how it plays out, with bolder doing this as a symbolic political move. Rather than an actual stance that would have others, like their mindset, see one cannot stop evil.

I assure you, I have.

The meeting that was scheduled for today didn't happen. The Moms refused to meet with the council and the gentleman who was writing this alternate proposal on the grounds of "He's not qualified enough to meet with us". I wonder if the higher ups got wind of the progress we were making and stamped out any inclination of cooperation. Gotta have their gun owner scalps.

One council member is voting no on the ordinance. I guess we go on the offensive from here. I won't be able to make the meeting this week, but we need bodies there. Write the Council, etc.

I will unashamedly admit that I was wrong here. There is no reasoning with these people.

Well.. despite the council meeting docket saying there would be no public input at this meeting there was a half hour public session at the beginning of the meeting where you could have two minutes to speak about any city issue you would like. The moms were there and I don’t think there was a single pro gun speaker. I was under the belief there would be no speakers and had no idea there was a list to sign up anywhere.

Anyway.. the council is going deeper and has even decided to not give LEOs any kind of expemption on personal firearms.. We’ll see what kind of response that gets from the police dept behind the scenes. They pretty much got rid of all the exemptions. The compromise that was brought up recently in this thread was mentioned in very brief passing and not given any serious discussion in any way.

Nagel is strictly against any kind of registration, Young is also weary of registration, Carlisle and Grano want a complete ban on possession, all guns out of the city “just like Deerfield”, I believe Jones is also in this camp, the rest feel like they need to do something even though they know it will only be symbolic.

I had to leave at 10:00 so I didn’t make it to the end.

Hmm, so this is what the French Revolution looked like.


ETA: If they end up with the worst versions, I really wonder what Denver will do for the next hoplophobic, virtue signaling push.
