I have a feeling that some overzealous liberal is going to be fired.

Interesting that the original article failed to mention that the complex was owned by the government, paid for with tax dollars.

At least they came up with the right answer in the end.

Fixed it for you.

• Private company in CO tries to infringe 2A rights.
• Government officials in two separate jurisdictions take immediate and decisive action to stop it.

You guys can read all the doom 'n gloom you want into this. What I read was: "Colorado politicians have learned to keep their freakin' hands off Coloradans' guns." The backlash over the Bloomberg gun laws is already having a very positive effect on local politics.

Hopefully the lesson learned by the liberal busybodies is, "those gov regulations you wanted, they always have unintended consequences."

And, that it is a Senior's housing complex too. That's adds a different slant to the situation as well, especially since defensive firearms have generally been recognized as a great force "equalizer" for women and the elderly & infirmed, which I'm sure that complex has plenty of all three housed there.

Typos brought to you by my DROID... and my apathy.

That changes everything, as a private land owner can do as they please; but a government entity is (supposed to be) bound by the constitution, and therefore can't (supposedly) engage in actions like this.

San Francisco Public Housing authority tried to pull this nonsense a few years ago as well:

And yet Magpul is still leaving the state.

And yet Magpul is still leaving the state.

I'm not sure I understand your point. Odds are Magpul's leaving is one of the reasons why local CO politicians have learned not to screw with the Second Amendment.
