Finally getting some comments about putting it to a vote in public. Would it make any difference in terms of state preemption if it was passed by the council vs. passed by a vote?
Boulder being a home rule city I don’t believe it would make a difference. Also there’s supposed to be an event called “Rally For Our Rights” in Boulder on Saturday from 1p-3p in the park at Broadway and Canyon. I think it’s the same folks that organized the one in Longmont a week or so ago? Can’t link from fb on cell.
Daily camera has it.

The gene pool needs chlorine.
Open carry is legally problematic in most city and county park/open space areas along the Front Range.
Go concealed.
Some additional info gleaned from a little birdie...
As expected, the ordnance does not apply to non-city residents in vehicles passing through Boulder with legally owned firearms or magazines of any type, no matter what they do in Boulder- just keep your stuff in your car.
As expected, the ordinance does not apply to persons carrying any legal handgun on a concealed carry permit. So your G17 with pre-6/13 17 rd mags are fine. Your AR pistol in a backpack with lawfully owned 30 rd mags would be fine.
Here is the kicker- They are looking at adding an exemption for anyone with a Colorado honored concealed carry permit from the entire ordnance. This would be a way for current gun owning Boulder city residents (many of whom probably already have their permit) to continue business as usual. The Sheriff's permit office would get real busy, but that's another discussion.
Your thoughts?

Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...
Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
So CCW holders are exempt from everything, including registration? Interesting.
I am still against any regulation that infringes, but this certainly makes living in Boulder more palatable. You shouldn't have to pay $152 to exercise a right. I did, but that was because I wanted to carry a concealed handgun if I choose to.
