According to the Washington Times<\/a>, Colorado Republicans gave their majority party Democrat colleagues the opportunity to save their jobs in the next election by introducing a bill to walk back the bill that banned normal capacity magazines in the State. Democrats didn’t care that they had cost the State about 800 private sector jobs by forcing magazine manufacturer Magpul to leave the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cI understand the folks that voted for [the magazine limit] may not like Magpul or what it stands for or its products; however, I do ask that you consider the folks that are losing their jobs as a result of last year\u2019s bill,\u201d said Republican state Rep. Lori Saine.<\/p>\n

Republicans knew going into the hearing that they didn\u2019t have the votes, and ultimately they failed to persuade any of the panel\u2019s Democrats to break ranks.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know this is not going to end all the gun violence, but we have to start somewhere,\u201d said Democratic state Rep. Jeanne Labuda. \u201cIf we\u2019re the ninth state or the tenth state to do this, it might take a while, but maybe in another 10 years, all 50 states will have some kind of magazine limit, and that\u2019s when the true results will be seen.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“Maybe”. 800 people didn’t “maybe” lose their jobs, but Democrats, as usual, are banking on a “maybe” to save their own jobs. Just like their “maybe” excuse for allowing fuel prices to rise so “maybe” we’ll find an alternate energy source. Just like their Obamacare “maybes” and their global warming maybes and all of the other maybes that they use as their political platforms. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, with no maybes, thousands of Coloradans were made criminals overnight with the passage of new draconian gun laws. Maybe they shouldn’t have those jobs. Maybe voters should tell them so at the polls. Maybe the world would be a better place with no Democrats at all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
