Colorado governor signs restrictive gun bill into law

You don't remember the police officer teaching a class on gun safety, that shot his foot in front of the whole class?

Maybe he should have taken one of those ineffective 15 minute online courses?


I'm sure he had much more training than that, duck. It only goes to prove that, as you clearly demonstrate, you can't fix stupid. Do you think a 15-minute online course with a certificate would have helped him?

A 15 minute course on gun safety would have reminded him that he should always wear steel-toed boots, my friend.

He became known as Barney but he wasted his onlly bullet and he never did get another one.

The new law makes it illegal to buy, sell and manufacture certain types of semi-automatic firearms without passing two background checks, obtaining a permit from a local sheriff's department and completing a firearms training course certified by Colorado Parks and Wildlife.
The new law also requires CPW to maintain a database of everyone who passes the training course, which opponents say is a defacto government registry of gun owners.


This unnecessary, ineffective, and unconstitutional law will do nothing to reduce gun-related violence in Colorado.
Every state with an 'assault weapon' ban will enact a law like this, once the SC overturns said bans.
The goal of the anti-gun left is to make it as hard as possible for the law abiding to exercise the right to keep and bear arms - no one wonders why.

My response is simple: the law should be written to give the state one year to prove that this law has significantly lowered gun crime, otherwise it is void and denounced as just an effort to take guns from the hands of lawful citizens.

If 14Shooter believes that nobody is safe in America without a gun, this law sure the fk isn't going make anybody safer!
 
Well, I agree that anyone who owns a firearm needs to know firearm safety.

Firearm safety: That can be covered for the most part in two minute---
  1. Never point a gun at anything/anyone unless you intend to shoot it/them.
  2. Never put your finger on the trigger until you are ready to fire.
Advanced Course for extra credit:
  1. Never clean nor load a gun unless it is empty of ammunition.
There! Now you are qualified to be an instructor!
 
I head Idaho is nice.

Too late for me to do that now, I need to finish out my working career here, and then I'm definitely out of here!

When my folks moved here in the 70's, Oregon was a really simple place to live in. Virtually no gun restrictions of any kind, it was inexpensive to live here, there were thousands of homes under $20K, wages weren't great but super-easy for one working person in the household to buy a home and raise a family. Now it's becoming over-regulated like California, VERY expensive to live in, and no chance now of Republicans and or conservatives to run any segment of the state's lawmaking and enforcing.
It's a lost cause, and not a good place to move to.
 
I have a number of cops who have been friends for years. Their advice, never register your guns. Should you ever sell your gun, or it is stolen and then used in the commission of a felony, you're fucked. My city passed a Law requiring gun registration. I proudly ignored it. The city can pound sand.
Amen.

They're seen passing a gun back and forth without checking each time to ensure it wasn't loaded. And then it was loaded!

He was either not trained or had forgot the basics my friend!

How does this work? Your car is broken into and your gun is stolen. You report it but a guy 3 hours from you kills someone with it while you were at work.

How do you get in any mess over this?

(I ask this despite being against registration)

In the hypothetical you give the gun owner of record is under suspicion because the gun can only be traced back to him. The burden of proof is on the gun owner to prove his innocence. Better tell a good story that can be proven or hire a really good and expense lawyer, because the cops are going to come looking for you first.
 
The bad guys with guns had to be good guys with guns at some time in their lives.

Then you should be able to make a nice long list of instances where the gun used in a mass shooting was legally obtained and owned by the shooter before the shooting.

Go.

I was shot 6 times while at work while at a company that banned firearms in our trucks. Had I been allowed to carry mine, things might have turned out much different. The guy that shot me didn't take a firearms course. The guy that shot me was a convicted felon already, not allowed to carry a gun, high on drugs and robbing me for money using a stolen gun to pay his drug dealer.

No he isn't. He might get asked about it but that's it.

If he was responsible and reported the theft, he likely wouldn't even get questioned.

To Conservatives maybe. Not big fans of innocent until proven guilty and due process.

No they aren't. They would have no reason to suspect you.

It could have turned out even worse if you had a gun, assuming you're not making up a story to grt attention?

What have you done to make America safe without a gun since then?

You don't even give 14Shooter credit for identifying the reason why you 'might' have got shot!
