You can put lipstick on a Democrat and it's still a Democrat.

Why don’t some Republican representatives introduce bills placing limits on freedom of the press, since our Constitutional rights aren’t “absolute”? Two can play this game. If only our side would learn that.
Here’s my feeling....If you are licensed in one state, there should be a reciprocity between ALL states. The idea that I can’t protect myself at all times is absurd.
“The private sale loophole is just a way for criminals to skirt around our current background check and it contributes to the murder of 34 Americans every single day,” Fields said. “Background checks are the only systematic way to stop felons, domestic abusers and the seriously mentally ill and other abusers from buying firearms.”
Ms. Fields are you that ignorant? Criminal by definition do not follow the law. So you write a new law and you think they will all of a sudden obey laws? Mam you live in a fantasy world.

R’s made the argument in the hearing yesterday—Bob Gardner argued the Background check was like a prior restraint on speech. D’s ignored it.
If R’s introduced a bill about background checks for the press, it would be hooted down by everyone and the R’s would vote against it. It would be a stupid bill. Worse, the D’s might decide it was a good idea to filter out bloggers and just leave the captive media to do their bidding.

Of course I don’t mean seriously introduce such a bill, I mean introduce it to make the point, and point out that it’s ludicrous, just as laws restricting our 2A rights are ludicrous. The ‘rats use such ploys.
Anyway, are the antis really so ignorant that they believe people who have criminal intent are going to go through all the hoops to legally acquire and keep a gun, just to proceed with their criminal intent? I don’t think they are. I think they know full well that these are just means at chipping away, bit by bit, the 2A rights of law-abiding citizens. That’s the only people who will pay heed to all these laws.

You’re proposing a lawless society...the Federal Constitution and State Constitutions say otherwise.
Funny. Denver is considering opting out of the marijuana laws because, get this, crime is up.
And now they want to take away the guns.
It just doesn’t get much better then that
I believe AR-15s should be banned and M-16s made legal.
The AR-15 is designed to kill as any people as possible in a short time, so the politicians say.
The M-16 requires 250,000 rounds to make one kill.
Ok, this is sarcasm.
Wow. And the law is not even in effect...
Don't suppose you have a link?
Hispanics make up 32% of the population. Maybe the cartels found a new base....and it’s all nice and legal.
Those bums in Denver are begging me to take my tax and investment dollars elsewhere.
Born and raised in Colorado. Spent the first 34 years of my life there. Haven’t lived there in a decade. Went home last Christmas and I don’t even recognize the place or the people anymore. Definitely not the libertarian/conservative bent I grew up with. The place has been thoroughly Californicated.
“no constitutional rights are absolute and all are subject to reasonable restraint”
The face of tyranny. If there is no absolute RIGHT, then there are NO rights. The fascists consider a right to be any thing that the deem we MUST do. If it is not forbidden, it is mandated.
This comment is precisely why we have an UNALIENABLE right to overthrow despotic governments.
