"Enforcement light on Colo. gun restrictions."

Twenty months into implementation, Colorado's controversial gun-control laws are mostly unenforceable and have done little to nothing to attain bill sponsors' goals, according to gun rights advocates and statewide data.

I am pleased to report from behind the enemy lines that armed civil disobedience is alive and well. Unregistered gun transfers are occurring regularly between citizens. Compliance with existing laws prior to SB1160 of 2013 are now also being ignored. Evasion and smuggling continues unabated. At the moment, ammo sales only require you to DISPLAY a CT pistol permit or FID card to the cashier. Nothing is logged against you as to how much or what you are buying. Therefore, ammo sales are still brisk with plenty of inventory (except for the elusive .22LR), and even the on-line dealers will sell to you.

To my brothers and sisters in NY, NJ, MD, CO, and now WA......stay strong and vigilant. It's their move, and depending on what they do (if they do) there WILL BE thousands of armed III%'rs suddenly in that state to face the tyrants.; March 30, 2015 at 4:40 PM

my prayers are with all of you. Ohio to me is a bastion of freedom. Here we just had high capacity restrictions dropped. 40 and 100 rounders are now legal for the ranges.Here you can also hunt with suppressors. i might also ad that we have some genuinely good sherriffs departments too. Here people tend to know one another a bit better and and they seem to have a good grasp of the sworn duties. This being said many of us over here look with much anxiety and trepidation because there are those among us who will charge to the sound of the gunfire to help you. The powers that be had better fucking process that and do the math. Be of hard resolve and good cheer sir. We stand fast with you.

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
