[ARCHIVED THREAD] - FAILED: Colorado House committee hears HB14-1151, mag ban repeal. (Page 1 of 22)

I will be listening to the livestream and posting updates as it goes on.

Unfortunately this bill is in the House "kill committee". Our fellow ARFcommer, reptar_head, is in Denver at the House for the hearing.

ETA:
Wiped out the links to the listening to preserve the fidelity of the stream.

You never know what will happen. But I guess it will be killed in committee.

Best of luck to you folks in CO. Damned polichickens are worse than a pitbull when it comes to giving up something they already have on the books..Might help to remind them how recalls work.

It's time for them to recall what happened the last time they tried to screw over Coloradoans...Colora...Yhea I'm going with Coloradoans, anyway, IIRC last time they did it it didn't work out too well for the people who got totally recalled.

Here's to hoping your state reps listen to their constituents and get this straightened out.

The is also going to be a committee hearing on the Senate version of the bill (it's the same bill) on Wednesday at 1:30 PM. I plan on attending and saying a few words. There are enough sponsors in the Senate (1 D came over) for the bill to pass there IF the bill makes it out of committee.

No audio stream up yet. At least not that I can find. Whoever designed this website was...not skilled with user-friendly web design, to say the least.

Or, maybe they WANT to keep you in the dark so you don't know what kind of BS they're trying to ram through even though they know nobody in the state actually wants it?

No I'm sure that's not it...

First bill up in the committee is not the bill to repeal the mag ban.

Posted: 2/10/2014 12:08:51 PM EDT

Moving on to the mag ban repeal. HB1151. Starting now.

Why do this now, is there a chance Higgenlooper or what ever the governor's name will sign it?

I sure hope he uses arguments that explain just how poorly the bill is written (i.e. it bans ALL magazines with a floor plate) vs the 2A part that will go over the liberals' heads anyways.

"My friends and I, people who are avid shooters. We already have those. And I suppose we're thankful that government isn't seeking to take those away from us. But what public safety is there when there are tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, possibly millions, of those already in public hands?"
