Colorado Sheriffs Band Together to Overturn New Gun Control Laws

Colorado Sheriffs Band Together to Overturn New Gun Control Laws

Aug 27, 2013 Infidel Alie

Excerpted from Big Government – Colorado GOP gubernatorial candidate Tom Tancredo says sheriffs throughout CO have added momentum to efforts to overturn gun control laws that are infringing on the Second Amendment rights of Coloradans.

When Breitbart News spoke with Tancredo on August 26, he said: "The laws that have been passed are being challenged by 55 Sheriffs, along with other Coloradans who anticipate the laws will be struck down because they are blatantly unconstitutional."

In the interim he said winning the upcoming September 10 recall elections "will be the most important and powerful signal we can send." These recalls focus on Democrat state senators John Morse and Angela Giron, both of whom supported the gun control measures that Democrat Governor John Hickenlooper signed into law on March 20.

These laws include a ban on magazines over 15 rounds (rifle or pistol), background check requirements for every sale in the state, and a new tax–described as a service fee–for those background checks. The background check requirement effectively ends private sales within the state.

Tancredo said the fact that "55 of 62 elected Sheriffs" oppose the new gun control laws brings a lot of momentum to the efforts to overturn these laws and to recall Morse and Giron.

He said sheriffs "are probably the most respected elected officials in the state," so it carries a lot of clout when this many of them "challenge the governor."

Tancredo said he has always been proud to represent Colorado, whether in the state legislature, the Reagan administration, or the U.S. Congress. But he has "never been as proud" as he is now, watching Coloradans rally to take back their state and their 2nd Amendment rights.

Superbowl anti-gun ad, hope it backfires on them

PAT DOLLARD YOUNG AMERICANS 11 Hours Ago Bloomberg to Air Gun Control Ad During Superbowl Feb 2, 2013Toro520 Via The Associated Press: NEW YORK (Associated Press) – A gun control group founded by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is airing a Super Bowl advertisement calling for background checks. The 30-second spot by Mayors Against Illegal Guns will air in the Washington area during the game between the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers. The ad calls on lawmakers to pass rules requiring background checks on guns. It is narrated by children, with “America the Beautiful” playing in the background. It includes decades-old footage of National Rifle Association Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre saying the gun lobby group approves of the checks. LaPierre recently testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee that the NRA no longer supports background checks for all gun sales. A Bloomsberg spokesman would say only that the ad cost in the six-figure range....
