How do you figure you&#8217;re not electing a major dick when his name is Hickenlooper, anyway? You know he got the snot kicked out of him every day in grade school so he&#8217;s dead set on using his office to get back at the bullies;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper signed landmark new gun laws on Wednesday expanding background checks on gun purchases and limiting the size of ammunition magazines, placing the traditionally firearm-friendly state among the handful to pass new restrictions in the wake of the shooting in Newtown, Conn.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Anyway, Magpul Industries promised the other day on their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/magpul?ref=ts&#038;fref=ts\">Facebook page<\/a> that it would take them about 30 days to produce their first magazine after they pulled up stakes and left Colorado;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>We have said all along that based on the legal problems and uncertainties in the bill, as well as general principle, we will have no choice but to leave if the Governor signs this into law. We will start our transition out of the state almost immediately, and we will prioritize moving magazine manufacturing operations first. We expect the first PMAGs to be made outside CO within 30 days of the signing, with the rest to follow in phases. We will likely become a multi-state operation as a result of this move, and not all locations have been selected.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Colorado Republicans have promised to repeal the law once they kick out that guy with the funny name;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe\u2019re all in shock here,\u201d state Senator Greg Brophy, a Republican, said on Wednesday. \u201cIt turns out this guy who everybody thought was a moderate Democrat is actually a gun-control governor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the governor will be replaced by someone who has Colorado values instead of New York City values,\u201d Brophy said. \u201cIf Republicans are returned to control we will repeal these bills immediately.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There&#8217;s going to be a lot of that going around in the near future. That&#8217;s what happens when you pass laws without considering what the electorate has to say.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NBC reports that Governor Hickenlooper signed the Colorado scary gun bill today.
