excellent work, I also took the time to write my own letters to these cretins yesterday,

" We in Colorado will not stand for this infringement of our RIGHTS! these are not privileges you so graciously extend to us, they are in fact a RIGHT. I refuse to be oppressed by an overreaching state government. Please consider the following.

1. Magazine ban. Even most in your party realize that this does nothing at all to prevent crime or increase safety. Its only effect will be making criminals out of otherwise law abiding citizens and causing a loss of 100's of jobs and tax revenue you cherish so much due to the loss of Magpul, a Colorado company.

2. So called "universal" background checks. While I am not necessarily opposed to background checks for folks buying firearms, I am STRONGLY apposed to what amounts to registration of firearms. Again I will not tolerate statewide or other registration of firearms. Again we are not your subjects and this is not a privilege, its a right!

3. A Tax for gun owners to support a woefully inadequate and wholly unnecessary CBI bureaucracy. I am not sure what you people are trying to accomplish with this one, #1 it is unlawful, and unconstitutional to charge a tax for exercising ones rights. Secondly CBI is already unnecessary as there is already a national instacheck database utilized by the majority of states, CBI does nothing of value. To suggest we must be taxed to exercise a RIGHT to further support this useless drain on OUR tax dollars is adding insult to injury at best.

Please consider carefully your vote on these bills, the consequences for proud Coloradans will be great, and will no doubt make certain the Democratic party will never hold another majority in this state. Please stop trying to make this state into the mess of a place California is."
