The spokesman for the Gun Owners of America believes that Colorado legislators are taking things too far with a new Senate Bill.
Colorado has always been known as a state to push for questionable boundaries against private gun owners. But its latest Senate Bill is going way too far.
Anti-gun legislators have put together Senate Bill 25-003, which bans the manufacturing, distributing, transferring, selling or purchasing of semi-automatic rifles and shotguns that use detachable magazines. For that matter, gas-operated handguns are also included.
These are amongst the most commonly owned and sold firearms within the United States, so needless to say, this would be a pretty big deal if passed.
“This atrocious bill spits directly in the face of the Second Amendment, the Heller, McDonald, and Bruen decisions from the Supreme Court, and makes law-abiding citizens criminals for wanting to purchase commonly owned firearms,” the Gun Owners of America noted in a recent statement.
Joining us now to discuss this further is Stephen Willeford, who currently serves as spokesman for the Gun Owners of America. Stephen is the “hero with a gun” from the Sutherland Springs incident in 2017, which he has since co-written a book about. We welcome him to the show!
Q&A:
- Why does Colorado continue to push for gun ban legislation after all this time?
- How much of a burden would this new Senate Bill be to private gun owners or potential gun owners?
- Could someone battle against this ban using legal means, especially with the rights that the Second Amendment of the Constitution provides?
- If the ban doesn’t pass, is there a possibility that Colorado will try to put together something else to keep these weapons out of the hands of potential owners?
- You’ll be signing copies of your book, A Town Called Sutherland Springs: Faith and Heroism Through Tragedy. Tell us more about it and how it came together with your co-author, Rachel Howe.
- Where can people find your book?
- Where can we learn more about you, as well as Gun Owners of America?
