It's time for my family to leave Colorado.... Moving to Idaho

[beast556]

At this point pretty much have to be out of CO by August next year, no need to become a felon

Were moving to spearfish SD in a year and a half when my youngest graduates. Really sucks what has happend to colorado.

Dave I have not kept up on the laws, what is gonna be a felony in August?

Who are you showing your displeasure to with this grand gesture?

You think any leftist is going to miss you or reconsider their position because you ran away?

Are you generating enough revenue in the state that anyone will miss it as you "vote with you wallet"?

The only sure way to lose a fight is to run away from it.

Not sure what you mean with all that bullshit. There is no more fight here in CO the liberal leftist have won. Colorado is a solid Democrat state by a huge margin and they will do as they please. You can tell your self otherwise, but you know your lieing to yourself.

Will you be back to run the Colorado State Match and resurrect the Mile High Showdown?

Hey, Kazoo... Did you get the PM I sent you? My internet was acting up when I first tried sending it and never was sure it went thru.

Why is it so impossible for you to just say, "Hey, man... Good for you. I wish you well in your new adventure in Idaho,"? Instead you have to be a total dick and just piss on the guy's parade.

I've said this before to those who accuse others of 'running away'... Those of us who chose to leave weren't running away. We were, and in this case are, running towards a better quality of life, better economic opprotunities, a better political environment and so much more. You make it sound like you're some sort of tireless warrior gallantly defending your way of life. You're not. If the Colorado of today is any indication of how you 'fight' you're doing a really lousy job of it.

I left 10 years ago and my life improved immensely both in quality and economically. I couldn't be happier to be out of the shithole you're 'fighting' for. Everyone I still maintain contact with in Colorado constantly bitches about how bad it is. Most have family ties that keep them from leaving otherwise they'd have been long gone. So you go ahead and stay to fight a war you lost a long time ago and keep pretending you're more noble than those who left. I'll gladly stay where I am as well and enjoy a life free from nanny-state leftists that want to control everything the residents of the state do.

Its time for my family to leave Colorado. I have lived in Colorado for the vast majority of my life. How this state has changed Politically, Legislatively, Socially and Population Density has gotten to what I consider as the point of no return. We are moving to Northern Idaho in the small town of Rathdrum. It sucks to leave Colorado as my wife and I have called it our home for half a century. But our only option at this point is to show our vote of displeasure by taking our $$$ to invest in the community and economy to Idaho. Sometimes voting with your Wallet is the only option left.

I hope that for my remaining Colorado friends that things will start to turn around for the better. Especially from a 2A Rights encroachment perspective. The current Colorado 2A Rights encroachment trajectory is looking endlessly grim

Keep up the good fight after others like me have had enough and Tapped Out.

It's a very beautiful area up there and congrats on the decision to move your lives forward. Lots of cool places to visit and the Canadian border is just a short drive away if you have a hankerin' for some Tim Horton's donuts! Get your carry permit then no more background check when you want to buy a gun...without any silly restrictions like magazine capacity and so forth. When I first moved up near Lewiston it was like moving back in time to the 60s in terms of how people acted. Free to pretty much do what you want without a lot of gov't interference. When I left some of the smaller communities still had gun shows in the school gym! Pretty awesome place. I wish you the best.

I love it here but agree the taxes and political climate have made it unbearable.

I just spent some time near Boise ID, its nice. Everything seems better there. I also was in Boseman MT, I like it there even more.

Hopefully I'll be leaving soon too, but likely not for at least 3 years.

best of luck to ya CHA-LEE. Hope the move brings ya much joy and happiness.
Like many I see the writing on the wall, this state is FUBAR and although my wife really is not interested in making a move out, that may all change if and when developers move in on the big ranch that our property backs up to out back. If a developer moves in and starts moving dirt, it won't take much to convince her that it is indeed time to move on. Hopefully I will be retired at that point, and we won't have anything holding us back.

Best of luck! If my older son and his kids weren?t here I?d be gone as well. I never knew either of my grandfathers and my sons only had my dad for a few short years. Being with them will keep me here and supporting any/all fights against our crappy legislation.
