As I read it there is no exception carved out for service members who are forced to PCS to Colorado and have magazines purchased elsewhere after the ban. I guess I would have to leave them outside the state. Freaking ijits.

An iron curtain should decend around California and not allow the granola eaters out. They came out here to get their Rocky Mountain high and never left.

My phone calls:

Hello. I'm calling to voice my opposition to House Bills 1224, 1226, 1228 and 1229. These laws will do nothing to reduce violence. Rather, they will infringe upon an important American tradition enshrined in the same Bill of Rights as free speech and due process. Please do not succumb to emotional overreaction, however righteous that emotion might be.

[when appropriate] I am moving to your area in a few months. Vote against these and similar bills, and you'll have my vote and my full-throated support.

mariodsantana,

Man, thank you. We need as much of this as we can get.

Responses to my 'Vote NO' email so far:

thank you for your email. I completely agree with you. As
a strong supporter of the Second Amendment, I will continue to oppose all
gun control bills. Indeed, I already plan to oppose all three of these
Democrat gun control bills. You can count on me to reject any
restrictions on your Second Amendment rights.

Please forgive the brevity of this reply. As a State Legislator, I do not
have any staff. I receive about 300 emails a day, and I try to reply to
all of them in my district. I spend about 3 hours a day replying to emails.
I’m honored to represent you at the State Capitol.

Respectfully, David

I like the last line!

And yet, look at the crap that has shown up in Olympia, WA, this season.

ETA: I was trying to illustrate why this is a general rule of thumb, not an iron-clad rule.

Got this email tonight:

Dave, thank you for your email. 90% of my emails are AGAINST the Democrat gun control emails. As

a strong supporter of the Second Amendment, I will continue to oppose all
gun control bills. Indeed, I already plan to oppose all four of these

Democrat gun control bills. You can count on me to reject any
restrictions on your Second Amendment rights.

Thank you again, David

If anything, I have been getting mostly positive responses back, and the ones that are probably for the passing of these laws aren't saying much. I was curious about the percentages. His email was revealing.

PLEASE keep sending those emails with the information posted above!!! Thank you!

Dave, do you mind if I repost that letter to some friends on fb that are following this situation?

I am truly sorry for all the residents of Colorado. I really wanted to move/retire there someday as it is an awesome state. Unless this is changed that won't happen.

So CO residents buying new Glock 17's will be saddled with 10 rd mags?
