With the quality of testimony it's apparent that nothing could have been said to change anything. They should be very ashamed that they would, or even could, put political favoritism ahead of what is best for the people of Colorado. That said, what we all watched today is a microcosm of the problem in D.C. I fear there is no fixing it anymore. It would be one thing if these Dems were acting on promises made from a guy who just took office. Then they would just be naive! However they, like us, have been able to see how well promises are kept over the last four years. Strange that itts women Senators voting against others (Specifically younger women) to be able to keep themselves safe. My wife is livid.

Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".
"Everything the State says is a lie, and everything it has it has stolen.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
"Every time something really bad happens, people cry out for safety, and the government answers by taking rights away from good people."

I am ashamed to be a Democrat (don't hate me I am on the side of the 2nd amendment). There is no reason that true Democratic ideals are incompatible with 2nd amendment rights. I will not be voting for any of these democrats that are responsible for this ever again. I am ashamed that the current liberal extreemests claim to be democrats. They are not, a true democrat believes in a level playing field, and what is more of an equalizer than an gun!
It just got real.

Credit TFOGGER : Liberals only want things to be "fair and just" if it benefits them.
Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
It should be clear by now that these people are not interested in finding a real solution because that would take away their ability feed off of tragic events in order to advance their political agenda. It should be obvious by now as this legislation cannot and will not stop bad people from doing bad things. Today's Democratic party is not the same Democratic party of 50 years ago.
I knew I would wake up to this today, I thought for a second that maybe I wouldn't, but I'm tired of my wishful thinking on this. When is the Senate vote on this now that it is out of committee?
...they'll ram all this shit through and probably not even get to education or any of the mental health legislature they were talking about
nevermind found it

You cannot possibly vote for democrats in today's society and be pro-gun:The above quote is taken directly from the Democrat Party Platform website. If you support a party or candidate that supports that, you ARE NOT pro-gun. Owning a gun does not make you pro-gun.Firearms. We recognize that the individual right to bear arms is an important part of the American tradition, and we will preserve Americans' Second Amendment right to own and use firearms. We believe that the right to own firearms is subject to reasonable regulation. We understand the terrible consequences of gun violence; it serves as a reminder that life is fragile, and our time here is limited and precious. We believe in an honest, open national conversation about firearms. We can focus on effective enforcement of existing laws, especially strengthening our background check system, and we can work together to enact commonsense improvements—like reinstating the assault weapons ban and closing the gun show loophole—so that guns do not fall into the hands of those irresponsible, law-breaking few.
I'd definitely call myself a classical liberal. But that's very far removed from the democrat party of the last thirty or forty years.
