So Beck rips into Colorado today.....

[BPTactical]

Listening to Beck and he goes off on Colorado essentially calling us a bunch of pansies, wondering where the real men are and how this happened here.
So I shot him an email:

Good afternoon Glenn and thanks for all you do.
I am a third generation Coloradoan and a professional in the firearms industry (Gunsmith)here. You asked today in your 1st hour where are the real people in Colorado and what the hell happened to us.

We are here and we are the majority aside from Denver and Boulder. We are speaking out but our voices are unheard. Our representatives and senators voice mails are full, e mails get bounced back and they have disabled comments on their Facebook pages.
They refuse to face their constituents.
I have sat through 24 hours of testimony only to hear the proponents tout outdated statistics, mis-truths and emotion based talking points. I have watched and listened as people with no standing in regards to our state legislative processes are coddled with kid gloves (Mark Kelly, Sandy Hook representatives etc) while citizens are scoffed at and disrespected. I have watched as the County Sheriffs Association which represents 62 of 64 counties stand united opposing these proposals with cold hard facts, only to have the vote follow party lines(D have the majority in the House and Senate).
The halls and chambers of our capitol have been standing room only with those that oppose these Draconian proposals, only for them to be uncounted and unheard.
We are witnessing Tyranny by purest of definition (oppressive power, a rigorous condition imposed by an outside agency(Washington and Bloomberg) an oppressive,harsh or unjust act)unfold before our eyes.
And yet despite overwhelming opposition (8-1) these arrogant and ignorant lawmakers willfully violate their oaths of office and continue the agenda to strip the rights of law abiding citizens of my native state.
We continue to fight for our rights but we face a very hard battle, these proposals are set to go to the Senate on Friday the 8th.
We are being rolled over by the Progressive machine known as Washington, Bloomberg and liberalism as a whole.
Regarding your comments as far as Amanda Collins testimony and comments by lawmakers to her, you are spot on as far as Evie Hudak goes. I cannot imagine how insulting to Amanda it was to have an arrogant elected official make a statement such as hers. Hudak is an ignorant and indignant excuse for an elected official. Miss Collins has my complete empathy.
However Ted Harvey was actually apologizing to her for lawmakers prioritizing student and educators feelings over her right to defend herself.
He is one of the good guys Glenn. We do have a few of them here and they are fighting very hard for us, they are just in the minority.
How did this happen to Colorado? Simple Glenn, we now have the 3rd largest Gay Pride week in the nation, we now have legalized pot. These people unfortunately have the same right to vote as you and I.
We have been overrun by the liberal creep that started in the 80's, falling squarely on the shoulders of former Denver Mayor, Federico Pena. He opened the door and we were too naive to see it or close it.

I am watching my home, what used to be a proud, conservative western state with traditional American values do a slow death roll.
It pains me to see this occur in my home state.

I am a native to this state.
It is no longer my home.

Thank you

We shall see if I get a reply
