Recall Campaigns in Colorado Over Strict Gun Laws

Posted by khalling 12 years, 6 months ago to Legislation

we were just there last week. it seemed completely homegrown to me. There were protestors for Morse on every prominent street corner two Saturdays ago. These people looked very angry and determined to oust him.
and you should have heard the horns honking in support

As it should be. The Urban population concentrations should not be allowed to commit tyranny by majority voting block.

Wow, and Colorado used to be so cool. Too many transplants mucking it up for everyone else. Hope the recall goes well.

        No. Just stating the way I think things could develop, since the Sheriff is often an elected position where the Chief of Police is often appointed. County Sheriff says they will not enforce, because they know it could impact their re-election. Chief of Police might be forced to comply to the wishes of the Mayor.

        "Forced"? A chief of police forcing a sheriff.... that would be one interesting confrontation. We shall see. And aren't Mayors elected as well?

    the majority of the state is held captive by a few counties in Denver. Colorado Springs likely only has 10 californians and they are conservative. they do have a tiny liberal college but they keep it contained, and the students are from the east coast anyway

      This is a growing trend. NYC controls the state of NY. Seattle controls all of WA state.

        if you look at the way the districts are separated, you will see geographically, Colorado is conservative. However, the highest concentrations of population are Denver Central and sprawl and represent the most districts. they are democrat. One city sprawl holding the rest of the state hostage

        By county you would almost think California would be more conservative. But our voting population is not.

        that's my point! Like the federal govt-look at the red areas vs blue, and you will see the large urban centers hold us hostage
