   Local gun shops and shooting ranges are worried that people will be unable to defend themselves

A Colorado gun reform law that will prohibit people under 21 years old from purchasing a gun will go into effect on Monday.

SB23-169, one of several sweeping gun reform measures approved by the state legislature and signed by the governor in the spring, will prohibit people under the age of 21 from purchasing a gun, with exceptions for active members of the U.S. armed forces, peace officers and people certified by the Peace Officer Standards and Training board.

Local gun shops and shooting ranges say the new law might lower profit, but they are more worried about the people who will be unable to protect themselves.

"People under the age of 21 are no longer going to have the right to defend themselves with firearms," DCF Guns store manager Kevin Day told Fox 21. "The best thing we can do is continue to educate the public."

Colorado is not a subsidiary  of California. This was already  begining  to happen when I lived there in the 70's. Rich Ca lefties were fleeing the crime problems they caused in Ca,and moving  to places like Vail and Golden so they would be safe. Once they got there,they immediately started demanding laws identical to  the ones  they just fled from be enacted in Colorado.

And they pretty much got away with it because the PoPo in those places are pretty dedicated to "keeping the white trash Republicans out of town".

And since there is no  way in hell the typical left-wing radical can afford to live in places like Vail or Aspen,they get away with it and do their little "superiority dances" to celebrate being "more equal than the working classes".
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!
