Taking CO303's lead I came into work early to draft an email.
At first I was thinking of hitting all 4 of the bills but now thinking I'll shoot one email per bill with why I oppose each one.
Here is my first one-thoughts before I push it?
As a USAF Academy Graduate, veteran of OIF, OEF, OEF-P, former El Paso County Sheriff’s deputy, responsible and contributing member of my city, state, and country I would like to voice my opposition to Colorado Bills: 1224, 1226, 1228 and 1229. None of the proposed laws would do anything to curb mass murder events or common street crime and are a burden to law abiding citizens such as myself.
My wife served in the Air National Guard and was a POST certified law enforcement officer for the State of Colorado at the UCCS campus. She has left the law enforcement profession to pursue her passion in the field of physical therapy. As a concealed weapons permit holder she has legally carried her weapon daily while attending to her studies in physical therapy at a State campus without notice or incident. Bill 1226 strips Colorado Citizens of the right to protect themselves while on State owned college. As a former peace officer for a State campus she is well aware of the limitations that armed security and law enforcement has in protecting every student on a large campus. Please do not strip my wife’s right to choose. Do not take away the liberty to choose the way she decides to best protect herself from assault, rape or murder.
How will you vote?

I don't think the Democ-rat bastards in Denver give one rat's arse about your service in the AF or in our wars but your second paragraph should hit them where it hurts -- they're disarming WOMEN. I like how you ended with what Holbert told us were the four most important words.
Tell a lie long enough...
An estimated 40% of all gun purchases occur without a background check, allowing hundreds of thousands of guns to get into the hands of criminals each year. Current law in Colorado only requires background checks on gun purchases that take place at gun stores and gun shows, but not for private sales or sales on the web. A recent undercover investigation showed that 62 percent of private sellers on the Internet were willing to sell to someone who said he couldn’t pass a background check.

I don't think most Democ-rat bastards in Denver will care on rat's arse about my argument either, or my service, to tell you the truth. I'm more concerned with the Dems that are sitting on the fence as they are worried about keeping their jobs. I would like to know who those are.
Morse is a lost cause and I vote for recall petition but hopefully this will change a few minds to cause this crap to stall out.

The bills are being discussed in the committees this week and we need people to show up at the Colorado statehouse this Tuesday and Wednesday to voice their opinion:
