    I'm in Ft Morgan Saturday, but I have been emailing him. He has responded directly to me, not a canned message sent out. He has not given any indication on how he will vote...

    Same here. Manged to talk to him for a half hour on the phone last week, but he gave no real indication as to how he'd vote. I'm not terribly optimistic.

    I just got off the phone with John. He is headed home to read up on the bills and all kinds of feedback on them for tomorrow's session, so email your input.

    He's leaning on a yes vote for:

    SB 195--Online CCW training
    SB 197--No firearms for domestic violence offenders
    HB 1228 Background fees (Poll Tax)
    HB 1229 Universal Background Checks - he didn't understand the transfer portion of this bill, and was concerned that it discriminated against gay couples. I told him this amendment really needs to go. His answer to the sheriffs claiming it was unenforceable was that the police chiefs and CBI wanted it. Hell, I'd want it too if I ran CBI. In the business world, that's called empire building.

    I'd say based on our short conversation he's leaning for this one, too:

    HB 1224--Limiting the size of magazines - he keeps repeating the party line of how the Gifford shooter was tackled. I pointed out that six year olds can't tackle, and none of the grown men in VT tackled anyone.

    Didn't get a chance to discuss this one:

    SB 196--Assault Weapons Responsibility


    May be influenceable on this one, as he's award of the Denver Post poll.

    HB 1226 Prohibiting Concealed Carry on college campus.

    ORLY? I was born on a Tuesday, but I wasn't born last Tuesday. I recognize Politicospeak when I hear it.

    He dang sure didn't want to talk about Sen. Hudak when I mentioned CCW on campus. I wonder if they're going to throw her under the bus.

    They'll suck her dick while celebrating the first step of burning the Constitution. The only ones being "Thrown under the Bus" Are We the People". I dare one of these fuks to go to any gun owners home and enforce their 'sensible gun laws" They will hide behind "Their Oath" and send unwilling LE's to do their dirty work. I wager the next big movement will be to Recall the 46 sheriffs who do not support their agenda. Starting with Sheriff Smith, hell they have enough flag burning low life's in ft fun NOW.
