^^^this.
If you're unarmed, you are a victim.
9news just said it is going to last until 11:00.
They also said Elisabeth Epps said she is going to gut the bill and turn it into a bump stock ban.
It is odd she wants to curtail people's rights, having been the executive director of the Colorado Freedom Fund.
Hope this disaster of a bill fails completely . . . guess we'll find out.

The Denver lawmaker sponsoring a proposed ban on the sale or purchase of assault weapons in Colorado floated a significant scaleback of the bill Wednesday morning — a move that acknowledged the uncertainty of an impending committee vote.
But Rep. Elisabeth Epps said a failure to enact a ban would show that the state’s historic Democratic majorities aren’t serious about the policy.
In a lengthy opening statement to the House Judiciary Committee, the Democratic lawmaker told her colleagues that she was contemplating an amendment that would limit the bill — HB23-1230 — to a ban on bump stocks. Those devices, which allow semi-automatic firearms to be fired continuously, were banned during the Trump administration, but a federal appellate court struck down the prohibition in January.
While the U.S. Justice Department appeals that ruling and the ban remains in effect, Epps told the committee that a bump stock ban in Colorado would provide more assurance in the state.
. . .
As the committee settled in Wednesday for 12 hours of testimony before an expected vote on whether to advance the bill to the full House, Epps said she didn’t believe there was a path to get the bill out of committee “intact.” She plans to decide whether to bring her bump-stock amendment while public testimony unfolds.
Any amendments to the bill — from her or other committee members — would come at the end of that testimony, which is set to last into the evening.
Though Democrats have a 9-4 majority on the committee, House members, including Democrats, have said for weeks that they doubt the measure, as written, would pass to the full chamber.
Drip, Drip, Drip they compromise on Bump stocks this year Then next year it will be mag-bans, then whatever else they come up with. Epps said in her opening statement they will get it done. It might take 10 years but they will get it done. It was good to hear such a strong response today and to hear that commie Epps cry about her fellow commies/Dems not rubber stamping her and Felony-Fields bill. We need to break this super majority in the House and Senate or it will get done. Epps said she is an abolitionist when it comes to gun rights. And I learned that the muzzle velocity of an assault rifle is 4 times faster than a bolt action rifle.
Brendan Bialy (was one of the kids who stopped the STEM school shooting) just roasted the bill.
Well done!
That?s why nobody has ever been killed with a bolt action. The bullets are traveling so slow that everyone can easily dodge them.Quote:
