Hunters say they're boycotting Colo. over gun laws

[Irving]

Hey guys, remember that time that policies put in place by Democrats directly caused the largest recession since the Great Depression, and both people and governments were effected for several years afterward? Then all the Dems were shown the ills of their ways and voted out of office? That will surely happen here with this tiny loss at the state level. Right?

I'm betting this is one of them there vegetarian plots to save Bambi.

[bowhunter]

You guys go ahead and support them, reaffirming their stance that "normal" gun owners are ok with all this.

[Bailey Guns]

Raise revenue to compensate for lost revenue? Wuh?

Tax is revenue. You know that right?

Yeah, I know that. You need me to draw a picture?

Translation: "I want my elk dammit, fewer rich greedy out-of-staters mean more for me so nevermind showing the Dems that we were right when they ignored predictions about how it will hurt the Colorado economy."

Yeah, I know that. You need me to draw a picture?

No, you just need to act like you understand simple concepts.

[sniper7]

I'm sure it is because you don't get that it hurts the state government through lost revenue. Being able to demonstrate the lost tax income and tourism dollars (for out of staters) that is a result of the Dems actions could be huge if presented right at election time.

So why did they not give a shit about magpul?

Bottom line is they want guns, hunting, and our type of people out of the state. Would you do something to get rid of all the liberal minded folks in our state. Damn right I would. This is what they are doing, you are complying. Best thing to do is flood the place with conservatives, carcasses dangling, guns showing with a big middle finger telling them we don't give a shit what they say or do. Go back to your shantys

Because they are too simpleminded to realize the economic avalanche this could create. Magpul leaves, big deal. A Magpul oursourcer leaves, big deal. Outdoor Channel pulls shows..hmm...big deal. Hunters won't travel here to hunt or come during ski season... shit this is getting real and tax dollars are suffering. That's a way bigger economic kick in the nuts than just Magpul leaving. And the point I was making before is guess who else gets pissed? Voters (from both parties) whose businesses are jobs are being affected. Boycotts are just one more way to attack.

Why aren't skiers coming here?

So you are telling me you really believe they will care if hunters Dont show up, less guns of mass destruction are within the state borders. They will raise tag prices, increase ohv and boat permit costs since Dow and parks combined. Increase entrance fees. Plus have pot tourism to make up the lost revenue and they got an end result of more liberal minded people in the state and less conservative hunters with the same revenue.

And how are skiers affected? Is there a limit on the length of skiis or snowboards?
