STATE SENATE PRESIDENT MORSE TO BE RECALLED; HERE’S HOW TO HELP!

For the first time in state history, a Colorado legislator will face recall from the voters who elected him. The effort to recall Colorado Senate President John Morse (D-Fountain) has successfully gathered over 16,000 signatures, much more than twice the amount necessary to put a recall on the ballot.

Rather than acknowledge the writing on the wall (more signatures were obtained than votes cast for Morse in his last election in 2010) and resign, Morse has summoned all the forces of Leftist Gun-Grabbers from NYC, Chicago and Washington to help him cling to office.

Before an election date has even been set, Morse has raised over $120,000, mostly from wealthy donors and anti-gun PACs from out of state. This is nearly twice what has been raised by recall group El Paso Freedom Defense Committee (www.gotremorse.com).

This recall effort has gathered national attention and will be watched closely by all legislators considering supporting more gun-control laws. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT COLORADO SHOOTERS/HUNTERS/GUN OWNERS SUPPORT THE EFFORT TO RECALL SEN. MORSE so we can send a clear message to those who would ignore the will of the People to advance a radical gun-control agenda, which is exactly what Sen. Morse did this last legislative session.

It is expected that the recall election will occur sometime in September, so there is not much time to muster a campaign to educate all the voters of State Senate District 11 on the radical agenda of Sen. Morse and his arrogant abuses of the legislative process in ramming through legislation opposed by the majority of his constituents.

Please offer your assistance in any way you can. Volunteer information may be found at www.gotremorse.com.

CSSA AMONG NAMED PLAINTIFFS IN FEDERAL COURT CHALLENGE TO STATE GUN CONTROL LAWS

CSSA is among several plaintiffs in a lawsuit filed Friday in United States District Court for the District of Colorado requesting injunctive and declaratory relief from two of the gun-control laws passed by the General Assembly during the 2013 session.

The lawsuit requests that the federal court grant an injunction preventing HB13-1224 (ban on all magazines of more than 15-round capacity) and 1229 (requiring background checks for all firearms transfers) from taking effect on July 1 as prescribed, as well as asking the court to issue a declaratory judgment that these laws are null and void in that they are in violation of the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution as applied to the State of Colorado via the Fourteenth Amendment.

In 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in District of Columbia v. Heller that the Second Amendment guaranteed an individual right to keep and bear arms; in 2010, the Supreme Court held in City of Chicago v. McDonald that the individual right to keep and bear arms upheld in Heller applied to the individual states as well as the federal government. Both HB-1224 and 1229 severely restrict the individual right to acquire, possess and use standard personal firearms as designed and marketed.

In addition to CSSA, other major plaintiffs in this lawsuit are 55 of the 62 county sheriffs in Colorado, Magpul Industries (who was forced to relocate out of Colorado as the result of HB-1224), the Colorado Outfitters Association, Outdoor Buddies (which assists disabled hunters), Women for Concealed Carry and CSSA Club/Range member Family Shooting Center at Cherry Creek State Park.

“This case could not be more simple and straightforward. HB-1224 and 1229 are clearly overbroad and excessive in their restriction on the Constitutional right of law-abiding Colorado citizens to acquire, possess and use firearms for legitimate purposes, including to defend themselves and their loved-ones,” said CSSA President and attorney Tony Fabian, who is representing CSSA and Family Shooting Center in the suit. For those following the case, the case number assigned is 13CV1300 and the assigned judge is the Hon. Marcia Krieger.

John B. Cooke, Sheriff of Weld County, Colorado;

URGENT! JEFFCO PLANS TO SNEAK ANTI-OPEN CARRY ORDINANCE PAST PUBLIC OPPOSITION

CSSA has just learned today that the Jefferson County Board of Commissioners is planning on enacting a county ordinance tomorrow that would ban the open carry of firearms anywhere in the county the sheriff sees fit to designate on little or no notice.

This blanket open carry ban is illegal under Colorado law, which permits local governments to restrict open carry in specific, designated locations that are prominently posted against open carry of firearms. Specific language of the ordinance and any details regarding this measure are being withheld from the public in an attempt to prevent public protest/outcry at tomorrow’s commissioners meeting.

CSSA urges all JeffCo residents who are able attend this meeting and respectfully object to any ordinance that is not in strict compliance with Colorado’s law pre-empting local restrictions on firearms contrary to state law!

Meetings are normally held at 8 AM in Hearing Room 1 in the Jefferson County Admin and Courts Building at 100 Jefferson County Parkway in Golden.

LOCAL MEDIA VIOLATE MUTLIPLE LAWS IN ATTEMPT TO ENTRAP INNOCENT CITIZENS

Denver’s own KDVR Fox31 recently dispatched a team of local TV reporters on a mission to smear innocent Colorado gun owners. Endeavoring to “set-up” Metro Area gun owners, Fox31 reporters who are Denver residents, using a hidden camera and fake names/IDs, systematically lied and misrepresented themselves in order to try to get innocent Colorado gun owners to sell them magazines with capacities of greater than 20 rounds, which are illegal in the City and County of Denver and have been for twenty years.

The illegal conduct and actions of these reporters has been reported to law enforcement for investigation. The entire exposure of this blatant and biased attempt to smear innocent Colorado gun owners may be found at http://www.thebrennerbrief.com/2013/04/18/fox31-hidden-camera-crew-on-armslist/

These shameless, “gotcha!” media projects (it cannot fairly be referred to as journalism or reporting) illustrate just how low anti-gunners in the media will stoop to skew and warp public opinion.

Please join CSSA in contacting Fox31 to protest this unfair attack on innocent Colorado gun owners and their right to bear arms.

GRASSROOTS EFFORT OF SHOOTERS AND GUN OWNERS BLOCKS SENATE GUN CONTROL BILL

Make no mistake…your efforts in contacting members of the U.S. Senate in opposition to the latest attempt to cripple the Second Amendment carried the day in the defeat of this destructive legislation. At the eleventh hour, key votes abandoned their support of a bill that would have imposed unprecedented restrictions on the rights of law-abiding Americans to possess and acquire firearms. Here is the statement from NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris Cox:

Today, the misguided Manchin-Toomey-Schumer proposal failed in the U.S. Senate. This amendment would have criminalized certain private transfers of firearms between honest citizens, requiring lifelong friends, neighbors and some family members to get federal government permission to exercise a fundamental right or face prosecution. As we have noted previously, expanding background checks, at gun shows or elsewhere, will not reduce violent crime or keep our kids safe in their schools.

The NRA will continue to work with Republicans and Democrats who are committed to protecting our children in schools, prosecuting violent criminals to the fullest extent of the law, and fixing our broken mental health system. We are grateful for the hard work and leadership of those Senators who chose to pursue meaningful solutions to our nation’s most pressing problems.

Senate Gun Control Debate to Begin Tomorrow- Multiply Your Force by Five!

Tomorrow, April 16, the U.S. Senate will begin consideration of a number of anti-gun proposals. The underlying bill is S. 649, the so-called “Safe Communities, Safe Schools Act of 2013”, which would significantly restrict our Right to Keep and Bear Arms.

S. 649 seeks to criminalize the private transfer of firearms by law-abiding citizens, requiring friends, neighbors and many family members to get government permission to exercise a fundamental right or face prosecution. Among the amendments that will likely be offered to S. 649 are a ban on commonly and lawfully-owned firearms and magazines and language to criminalize the private transfer of firearms through an expansion of background checks. This includes the misguided background check “compromise” proposal drafted by Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV), Pat Toomey (R-PA) and Chuck Schumer (D-NY)—a proposal NRA strongly opposes!

NRA unequivocally opposes S. 649 and all anti-gun amendments to this bill!

For weeks, you have diligently contacted your U.S. Senators and asked them to oppose S. 649 and all anti-gun amendments, while urging support for reforms that respect gun owners’ rights, and enhance the safety of all Americans. Now, in these crucial next days, in addition to continuing to contact your U.S. Senators with these important messages, our challenge to you is to spread the word! Please contact a minimum of five of your family, friends, or fellow firearm owners and ensure they contact their U.S. Senators immediately with this same message!

If you can add five additional voices in this debate, we will be heard loud and clear over the constant drumbeat of the gun control crowd. This is the battle of our lifetimes, so we have to do everything we can to defend freedom!

Please continue contacting your Senators and find five others to do the same. You can use the "Write Your Reps" feature at www.NRAILA.org, or you can reach your U.S. Senators by phone at 202-224-3121.

The time to act is NOW! Ask your Senators to oppose S. 649 and all anti-gun amendments – including the anti-gun Schumer-Manchin-Toomey proposal! And please find five more to do the same!
