An amendment to Senate Bill 3 would give sheriffs broad power to deny an application to buy certain semiautomatic guns that accept detachable magazines if they have a "reasonable belief that documented previous behavior by the applicant makes it likely the applicant will present a danger to themself or others"

I love how CO Democrats are just watching the rise of the Orange Reich, and their solution so far is to ban modern firearms and allow sheriffs to decide that black people can’t get an exception to the ban.

    I know it feels useless and tedious writing your representatives about why gun ownership rights are important to you but it is a necessary thing to do. Right now these officials are assuming the people who care about gun ownership rights are already not a reachable voting block. Being vocal about this to anyone you are eligible to vote for can help them remember there are votes to be won with that issue.
