Shotguns Targeted in Colorado Bill

A bill in Colorado that has already been approved by the House confirms gun control fanatics won't stop until they disarm America. It's a harbinger of a possible future if gun control resistance isn't ramped up a notch.

The shotguns that would be banned per bill 1224 would be those that fall under an arbitrary definition of a high-capacity magazine, which the bill defines as one that is "capable of accepting or — that can be readily converted — to accept more than 15 rounds or eight shotgun shells."

Colorado bird hunters especially us a shotgun for this purpose, and would be banned if the law is passed, or an amendment dealing specifically with the issue isn't added. The governor of Colorado has already said he'll sign the bill into law if it comes to his desk.

Sen. Greg Brophy, R-Wray said, “I don’t know if anybody is going to make guns specifically for the five million people living in Colorado. We just might not be able to legally purchase a pump shotgun or a semi-automatic shotgun.”

While this must be fought by the people and lawmakers of Colorado, it confirms and reveals that liberals and Democrats will not stop until they get almost all guns banned. This bill proves it, and we'll see them continue to chip away at the Second Amendment, one gun at a time, unless we totally understand that his is their radical agenda.

Rifles Among Least Used Guns in Murders

Of the 9,146 firearm deaths:

 •6,452 were from handguns
 •348 from rifles
 •418 from shotguns
 •94 from other guns
 •1,834 from unknown guns
 
It's incredible that rifles are the targeted gun of choice for those who hate personal protection and security for the people of America based upon the facts. Did gun opponents think America and the world wouldn't find out?

Free Shotguns Given Away in Houston

A University of Houston graduate student says he’s conducting a study to hopefully answer the question being asked across the country, “Do more guns reduce crime or not?”

Kyle Coplen, who founded the Armed Citizens Project, is giving away 20-gauge single-shot shotguns to residents in mid- and high-crime neighborhoods to test whether or not the weapon will help reduce crime in the area, according to the group’s website. Coplen says the weapons are not of much value to criminals, but are especially useful for citizens looking to protect themselves from criminals.
