Colorado Democrats have assembled and published their platform for the 2008 Campaign. If you love freedom and value your First and Second Amendment rights, you need to be worried.
Democrats “support reinstating equal time requirements (the fairness doctrine)…” to the “airwaves.” This means that if a TV or radio station expresses an opinion, [...]

Using the “metaphor” that we are engaged in a “war” with the hard left over our natural right to self-defense against crime and tyranny, I am going to profile from time to time the organizations involved in this fight. This almost certainly has been done better elsewhere, but I am going to take literary [...]

Bob Barr has announced for President. Ron Paul continues to run. We can afford to support neither in the general election.
John McCain is far from my favorite politician. I like Bob Barr and Ron Paul much better on Second Amendment issues, even though I disagree with them regarding the War on Terror. [...]

I recently spoke to a bright young man at a gun show who wanted to “punish” a candidate running for office for some of his previous anti-gun rights stands and activities. Unfortunately, the candidate in question is the best available alternative.
My position on politics is that you have to support the most
electable, most pro-gun rights [...]

Concealed carry permit applications are up somewhat in Colorado. The Denver Post ran its second article last Sunday on this (extremely newsworthy?) phenomenon. This morning, talk show host Peter Boyles picked up the topic.
Am I paranoid? Is there a new conspiracy against CCW, or is this just another chapter in the never [...]

Everyone’s life, liberty, and property are a little safer today. The Legislature adjourned last night. Unless the Governor calls a special session, both houses won’t be back until next year. Senator Gordon, Senator Wendels, and Senator Tupa are leaving. They will not be missed by this writer, since they all sponsored [...]

The State Senate adjourned at about 9:40 PM last night without taking up a bill to restrict concealed carry in Colorado.  The House quit about two hours earlier.  It looks like the session will end without additional state restrictions on our individual right to defense against crime and tyranny. Stay alert. It ain’t [...]

The story under the Sunday May 4th Headline “Concealed Carry” on the front page of the Denver Post actually made some factual observations about the gun control debate. Among the facts reported:CCW permit holders are “an exceptionally law-abiding group,” gun accidents involving children up to age 14 “…have fallen 90% since the 1930’s…,” and [...]

We have three more days to go before the Colorado Legislature adjourns sine die (that means they aren’t coming back this year). Stay alert! The daily sessions could run until midnight and things can turn on a dime. On Friday, Democrat Senator Ken Gordon managed to revive in five minutes a non-gun [...]

According to newspaper accounts (Search on Colorado Wildlife Commission, prairie dogs) the Wildlife Commission voted unanimously last Thursday in a Grand Junction meeting to reject the WildEarth Guardians’ petition to ban prairie dog shooting in the state. The Guardians have also filed suit to stop the employment of Colorado Hunters to thin the overpopulated [...]
