For every action there is a reaction, and one need not be a devotee of
physicist Sir Isaac Newtons Laws of Motion to understand its meaning. The
country has learned that for every act of mass gun violence, the National
Rifle Association reacts violently and assails gun safety measures as
intrusive assaults on law abiding citizens dog-given 2nd amendment rights
regardless they are hardly proposed much less enacted. However, in a state
that has been ravaged by mass-shootings and passes weak gun safety
measures, the NRA reacts with fear-mongering and outrage. Lacking
dictatorial power to abolish the new laws and punish legislators who
supported them, they have shown they will spearhead an effort to remove
legislators for protecting their constituents. In fact, in Colorado, the
NRA launched recall campaigns against four state senators and successfully
put two on a special recall ballot to send a message succinctly
articulated by Republicans who said, Legislators should be scared for
opposing the NRA and voting for universal background checks on gun
purchases and limiting most ammunition magazines to 15 rounds.

.

Colorado has hosted two of the nations most horrific mass shootings, and
despite not acting after Columbine and Aurora, the Newtown gun massacre
prompted Colorado Democrats to react and pass what most Americans believe
are sensible gun safety measures. Last week it was reported that a
convicted felon in Ohio who was banned from ever owning a firearm for
killing one man and injuring two others was caught with 18 guns and 45,000
bullets that revealed why Colorado Democrats passed simple universal
background checks for gun purchases. The Ohio U.S. Attorney, Steven
Dettelbach, who prosecuted the case said, I cant tell you how he got all
those guns and ammunition, its not that I wont tell you; its that I cant.
This is somebody who should never have had one gun, one bullet. But he had
an entire arsenal.

.

It is interesting the Dettelbach cannot figure out how the felon stocked
his arsenal, when any American with a pea-brain knows that he accumulated
his cache because America lacks universal background checks for all gun
purchases. The felon was able to amass a stockpile of guns and ammunition
due to diligence of the National Rifle Association that has been on a
crusade to shut down discussion and calls for background checks on private
gun sales they claim creates a national registry of gun owners the
government will amass to confiscate weapons and enact tyranny. The NRAs
war on sanity prevents law enforcement agencies from keeping records of
gun purchases that allowed the felon in Ohio to avoid background checks if
he purchased his 18 guns from an unregistered dealer, or if he bought them
from a legal buyer because federal law demands law enforcement destroy a
legal purchasers record of gun acquisitions.

.

Colorados new gun safety measures went into effect on July 1st, but the
Republican (NRA) political opposition and legal challenges against the
regulations began before the ink on the gun safety measures was dry. The
NRAs battle against background checks was joined by 55 of 62 Colorado
elected Sheriffs who oppose the new gun control laws that gubernatorial
candidate Tom Tancredo boasts brings a lot of momentum to the efforts to
overturn these laws and to recall state Senators Morse and Giron.
