Colorado used to be a fairly pro-gun state, but all that changed shortly after a shooting in an Aurora, CO movie theater. While the killer was caught and isn\u2019t a risk to the public anymore, that didn\u2019t mean anti-gun forces didn\u2019t seize on the opportunity.<\/p>\n
Since then, the state has seen a progression of anti-gun incrementalism. Unfortunately, the stupid doesn\u2019t just stop with the state legislature. It seems the People\u2019s Republic of Boulder wants to get in on the action<\/a> and is now giving people who own so-called assault rifles just days to \u201ccertify\u201d their weapons or face repercussions.<\/p>\n
Residents of Boulder, Co., have until December 27 to \u201ccertify\u201d their \u201cassault weapons\u201d or remove the firearms from city limits. Those who fail to comply could face fines, jail time, and confiscation and destruction of their firearms, according to the\u00a0Denver Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Boulder police say they have certified 85 firearms since the city council passed an \u201cassault weapons\u201d ban in May. Residents who already owned prohibited rifles, pistols, and shotguns were given the chance to keep their firearms by certifying prior ownership with police. The council also voted unanimously to ban \u201chigh-capacity\u201d magazines and bump stocks.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy hope is that we will see more bans at the state level and one day at the federal level so these weapons will no longer be available,\u201d Councilman Aaron Brockett\u00a0said<\/a>\u00a0in May.<\/p>\n
It seems no official records are being kept and police only have a handwritten count of how many of these \u201ccertifications\u201d are being done.<\/p>\n
They also don\u2019t have a clue about compliance levels either.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s difficult to estimate compliance levels, and police and city officials have admitted that they can\u2019t do much about gun owners who refuse to certify their rifles.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a very divisive issue where people have very strong feelings,\u201d City Attorney Tom Carr told the\u00a0Daily Camera<\/a>. \u201cThe folks who oppose these kinds of bans \u2026 some of them suggest they\u2019re not going to cooperate. I can\u2019t predict what people are going to do, but I respect the feelings.\u201d<\/p>\n
That\u2019s putting it mildly.<\/p>\n
A lot of people aren\u2019t going to comply and are sitting there, counting the days and thinking, \u201cMolon Labe, jackwagons.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Just another political statement from the stank-ass hippies. Romaine lettuce killed more people last month than \u201cassault weapons\u201d.
