Semiautomatic firearm ban passes Colorado's House, heads to Senate
Colorado’s Democratic-controlled House on Sunday passed a bill that would ban the sale and transfer of semiautomatic firearms, a major step for the legislation after roughly the same bill was swiftly killed by Democrats last year.
The bill, which passed on a 35-27 vote, is now on its way to the Democratic-led state Senate. If it passes there, it could bring Colorado in line with 10 other states — including California, New York and Illinois — that have prohibitions on semiautomatic guns.
But even in a state plagued by some of the nation’s worst mass shootings, such legislation faces headwinds.
Colorado’s political history is purple, shifting blue only recently. The bill’s chances of success in the state Senate are lower than they were in the House, where Democrats have a 46-19 majority and a bigger far-left flank. Gov. Jared Polis, also a Democrat, has indicated his wariness over such a ban.
By identifying the participating combatants, likely before they ever manage to engage in that guerilla warfare to begin with. US intel has thwarted a lot of terrorist attacks before they could happen.
I dont think you understand what youre up against. You dont even have to have a physical meeting space at all, someones gonna be communicating online, or via cellphone. And then the government commandeers those records and finds out everything. You dont get to be covert against US intel.
The holocaust was only stopped by similarly advanced military resources
Those sufficiently advanced resources were applied by people actually willing to fight. The mentality is scalable.
You can continue to think I don't know what i'm up against and that any group (like the government) can hold the kind of near-omniscience that you think it does. I'm fine with that. I understand your point, and I don't think you understand mine. ..and honestly, I don't really care to relate it. You'll do as you wish, and I'll do likewise.
Good luck, soul.
