54 Colorado Sheriffs- - - - - -

Fat Billy

Majority of Cololado Sheriffs file suit against new state gun laws. These laws broaden back ground checks and restrict magazine size. Their position is that the bills passed would be impossible to enforce. They don't have much money to fight the law. I'm hoping that they can collect contributions to help the cause. I guess the suit will stop the laws for a bit. LEOs stand up! Go Boys!:guns: Later,

The third web page lists the sheriffs who are part of the law suit. I am glad to see the sheriff of my home county, Jim Beicker of Fremont county, on the list.

I wish them the best of luck because they are going to need it.

Oh man I was getting real worried for a second reading that list!! Figured my country Sheriff was turning out to be another Lib crony bending to pressure from above. But then I saw his name last on the list! Unfortunately I don't see the Jefferson Co sheriff's name on there. Probably scared for his job, that county, which houses a LARGE amount of the metro voting public, is very liberal. Boulder Co is obvious, as well as Denver Co.

My sheriff, Terry Maketa of El Paso County, isn't just recently on the bandwagon. When he was first elected, (around 2004) after the election, he stated that his favorite part of his job was signing CHP's for law-abiding citizens.

I'll be voting for him for any office for which he chooses to run. Hopefully, someday he'll be governor of this steadily-screwing-up state.

Saw that on the new the other day.

Tell the legislature to go pound sand! They have joined together to file a federal lawsuit challenging Colorado's doofus gun bans. This sort of reminds me about Andrew Jackson's comment: "The Supreme Court has ruled- - - -now let them enforce their ruling!" He simply ignored a SCOTUS decision, and they could do nothing whatsoever about it!
