Colorado: Governor Hickenlooper Signed Away Your Rights Today

Posted on March 20, 2013

Today, Governor John Hickenlooper (D) sent a message to the citizens of Colorado that he cares more about pleasing New York City’s mayor than he does about the constitutional rights of Coloradoans when he signed into law the most sweeping anti-gun legislation in the history of the Centennial State. Despite overwhelming opposition to this legislation, and despite the rich hunting heritage and deep respect for the right to self-defense by all Coloradoans, Governor Hickenlooper proved that he is only interested in pleasing Mayor Bloomberg and playing New York City politics.

House Bill 1224 – Bans magazines with a capacity greater than fifteen rounds and would make a magazine with a removable floor plate illegal.

House Bill 1228 – Imposes a “gun tax” for a background check when purchasing a firearm.

House Bill 1229 – Criminalizes the private transfer of a firearm.

Governor Hickenlooper has tried to brand himself as a moderate during his tenure in elected office. However, in a matter of months, he has pulled back the curtain of moderation, revealing himself as a fanatic with no respect for the Second Amendment.

This is crazy, I am so glad that I do not live in Colorado or New York right now. When will people come back to reality and realize Guns Don't Kill People, People Kill People.

When the government has criminalized the private transfer of everything, then everything will be perfect, we will all be safe and there will never be another problem, ever. Just wait, you'll see.
