    Colorado Assault Weapons Ban Submitted

    Umm no. A knife is a weapon, but I have never heard of it being construed as an 'arm.' You seem to be really grasping for an argument here. The Bill of Rights does not provide reasoning for each enumerated right. A very minimal amount of research will make it clear to anyone that the intent...

    Colorado corner crossing legislation proposal

    I guess my initial reaction to this draft bill is why not wait for the civil case in WY to run its course? We've waited a couple hundred years, why scramble with new legislation now when the court is hopefully going to settle the question (or at least make a fairly large step).

    Maximum hearing protection and tinninitis

    Many guns produce 150+ db and your muffs and plugs combined probably reduce the noise to 110-120 db. 120 db is instant, permanent hearing damage and I suspect that if you already have some damage, then it takes much less than 120 db to cause instant, permanent damage. 110 is still really loud...

    Colorado corner crossing legislation proposal

    As far as I can tell, this bill has not been submitted. I cannot find it here: https://leg.colorado.gov/bills Where did you get this draft? How is BHA going to have an opinion if it's not even submitted yet??

    Colorado Assault Weapons Ban Submitted

    No, it's not a right to insurrection. No government can stand that makes it legal to get rid of said government. The point of the 2nd Amend is that when necessary, the people can *illegally* get rid of the tyrants. If the government can take away guns, then the people will be forced to use...

    Are you just trolling? You don't think that the 2nd Amend was written so that citizens could put a flintlock in a glass case and hang it on the wall as a show piece...right? Right?!?!?!

    You keep saying defend the state (I keep writing it with a capital 'S' to avoid any confusion between a hypothetical entity and one of the 50 US States). And I keep saying it is an individual right.

    I believe you are still fundamentally wrong. The framers and SCOTUS believe(d) that the individual right is there for you and me to protect our family and home and, when needed, to fight tyranny. It doesn't mean that every time we lose a vote on an issue, we can 'legally' start shooting. It...

    That's because it's such a ridiculous argument. It is exactly like blaming people who drive cars for drunks that kill people while driving. It's not the car's fault or the designer or the manufacturer. It's not the other people who drive cars' fault. No one even has that thought. But when...

    This is absolutely not true. SCOTUS has ruled very clearly that 2A protects an individual right and it has nothing to do with States.

    That's fair. But what I implied from your statement is that anyone who supports the 2nd Amend as is (protection against tyranny) is responsible for children being murdered. Is that not what you were saying?

    Did USSR (Eastern Bloc) Produce Solid Steel Bullet Ammo?

    I saw a video of someone shooting an AK (not sure which variant) at night and there was a lot of sparks coming out of the end of the barrel. Someone said they must have been using old Soviet steel ammo. I know some 'cheap' ammo uses steel casings, but do any of them have solid steel bullets...

    Banning a specific tool (for law-abiding citizens) that is used very rarely (by criminals, who are not going to follow any laws) to murder people is going to make our kids safer? I don't think so. Those that trade freedom for security end up with neither.

    Corner crossing solution outta WY?

    It may be par for the course, but why introduce legislation before the ongoing civil trial has run its course?

    Bow Kill On Video

    Very cool video. I don't think you can legally mount a camera on a bow in CO...otherwise I would be tempted.

    My son's first elk made it to the Phoenix news

    I'm actually a little surprised they said, "shot and killed." Usually they pick something more PC like 'harvested.' Very cool to see it covered like it's a normal everyday thing.

    Southern Wyoming Land Swap and Dam Proposal

    Maybe in some areas. In a lot of areas the answer is to stop watering lawns and golf courses. In this case, stop watering cattle and hay fields in the high desert.
