Actually, the lawmen don’t confine that sentiment to the good governor. It seems safe to say they feel an equal amount of love for the Centennial State’s rights abrogating legislature, too. And they’re expressing those sentiments in the only way left to them — by suing the bastards in federal court. “The sheriffs, in a complaint filed today in federal court in Denver, said the ammunition law bans most magazines of any size in an attempt to prohibit those that can be converted to hold more than 15 rounds. They also alleged that compliance with the background checks will be practically impossible.” Joining the 54 sheriffs challenging HB1224 (mag cap) and HB1229 (background checks) are individuals and orgs as diverse as the Colorado Farm Bureau, the NRA the NSSF and Magpul. And the plaintiffs appear to he in good hands with lead attorney Dave Kopel of the Independence Institute. The first battle with likely be a motion for a preliminary injunction against the laws. Watch this space.
Glad I bought my Saiga .308 years ago for $400. 2000+ rounds of all types not one failure. Gotta love it!
For the record, “fantods” was a term frequently used in Mark Twain’s work. It referred to what is technically called “delirium tremens,” acute alcohol withdrawal. We called it “seeing snakes” where I grew up.
There is also a disability argument in the complaint. Fighting fire with fire.

That’s also the reason so many people; even so called gun rights supporters; hyper ventilate with fear and adhominem attacks against people that Open Carry; generally one can OC without a permit and you are no longer one of the sheep; you are now openly showing yourself to be a sheep dog without a badge.
Two fears confronted, a practice of a right without a permit and facing the fear of not being one of the herd by no longer being a prey animal called an unarmed human being.

I carry both open and concealed. All depends on how I am feeling, what I am wearing, and where I am going. I get more crap from gun folks when I carry openly than non-gun people.
I also, don’t understand why anyone gets uppity about open carry.

Dan and Robert cross the finish line in the unlimited class bicycle race held this Friday a solid 1/2 mile ahead of the peloton . Other riders erred on the side of caution all mentioning something about “in the cross-hairs”.
Oh boy!! A gun that wouldn’t work when it’s cold. People put on gloves when it’s cold. How would the Hi-tech Wunderpistole read prints through gloves?
The same way “they” have made it a felony to kill a police dog, it will also be a felony to destroy a police robot.

Slave state has such negative connotations. Keep it!
Perhaps this is a dense question…but how does a civilian with a gun hold a criminal? If he’s running away, I don’t think I could shoot ’em. If it’s a case where I’m physically barring his escape, I suppose that’s different. Do you see what I mean? I’m by no means opposed to the practice, I’m just curious how it might go down.
When cops can roust you, cuff you and toss your car without any reasonable suspicion, much less probable cause, the use of the phrase “slave state” is probably an understatement.
