I don't know much about the house but I do follow the senate more closely. Some of these districts, like Boulder and Denver, are very liberal and they are always going to elect the furthest left candidate from any choice they have. There are 5 senators or so that are far to the left of their constituents in their respective districts. I believe retiring these senators are where real improvement could be made in 2014. John Morse - Colorado Springs Angela Giron - Pueblo Gail Schwartz - Snowmass Mary Hodge - Brighton Linda Newell - Littleton http://coloradosenate.org/home/directory/member-directory I believe that Angela Giron and John Morse in particular have seriously misrepresented their constituencies, and failed to listen to the people they represent. Time will tell, as in the next election cycle.
I'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave....

Sorry CO brothers. You need to get your house in order. It has only gotten worse with me spending my money there over the years. Don't tell me I'm making it worse by going elsewhere. My withdrawal from the economy is my only way to "vote" in that state. Accumulated CO points are safe for 10yrs. I'm not spending another dime there until it's "right".
I urge all to vote with their voices, ballots and dollars and to also support others that do likewise - like Magpul.

While I understand the need to make our voices heard as hunters, sportsmen and gun owners, I don't think that walking away from colorado hunting is the answer. Walking away from hunting might be the next step in helping the people that pushed the anti gun legislation through, push some sort of anti hunting legislation through. I don't claim to have the answer, but I don't think that boycotting hunting in Colorado is it.
Maybe everyone needs to ski elsewhere, host business meetings elsewhere, buy mexican weed and Anheuser Busch products.
long before Rodriguez stole that goat.

Willowcreek, we've got a AB brewery just North of Fort Collins, CO. Better boycott another beer.

The opposition will not respond to reason or touchy feely approaches. Win or lose? People need to act swiftly and decisively.

The gang of Democratic legislators, mostly far-left, female Obama worshippers from Denver metro area, would like nothing better than to see the firearms and hunting segments of the economy boycotted.
What they would really hate is if their favorite Starbucks closed or their Subaru dealership was shut down, or of their local organic food market were boycotted.

Wanted: Vintage Remington or Winchester hats, patches, shirts. PM me if you have something.

During the last Presidential election, the incumbent's signs littered many lawns in my neighborhood (which also had Subaru's in driveway....). I felt like I was on a daily E-n-E behind enemy lines (still do actually).

I hope I am not catching myself profiling but I have noticed that 4 times out of 5 when I get cut off by an SUV driven by a cell phone talking driver, when riding a bike, I see an Obama sticker on its bumper.
Seems to indicate the general lack of respect for others in those supporting removal of rights of others.
Sucks, folks. My job is here, and it is beautiful. I guess beautiful attracts them bleeding heart liberals.

Is it safe to drive a Subaru when I am elk hunting? Maybe I better put NRA stickers all over it?

Hunters boycoting Co. will only hurt the people that are the supporters of gun rights. I thought tag money went into the general fund for the [bleep] to spend? No, it goes into the game cash fund. Legislators can't touch it.

NRA stickers on a subaru might be a good idea but I don't think they will stick.

Legislators can't touch it. Exb That is true but they just cut from the general funding. That's what they did with the lotto money the DOW got money from lotto but less from the general fund. It was a typical political bait and switch that the lotto was going to be used for more wildlife programs.

As I understand it,which might be wrong,but the money goes into the general fund,but is ear marked.Then the DOW must submit a budgtet and request that money bac. They do not necessarily get it all back.
