Rivemor Posted January 16, 2019 at 10:30 PM Share Posted January 16, 2019 at 10:30 PM Very Cool video and Story worth taking 4 minutes to watch. A little background.... In Boulder, Colorado, a new law took effect which bans not only the sale but possession of certain types of “assault rifles” and accessories. Falling under the shadow of that law was Denver Post columnist Jon Caldara, who owns an AR-15 style rifle. Rather than going and meekly turning in his firearm to the police, Caldara took to the pages of his newspaper and to YouTube as well to inform the government that he could not in good conscience comply with the order and would not be surrendering his rifle. It wasn’t quite a “Come and get ’em” message, but the impact is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangerdeepv Posted January 16, 2019 at 11:42 PM Share Posted January 16, 2019 at 11:42 PM This guy is to be commended for his 'civil disobedience'. Let's hope it is not for naught! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
357 Posted January 16, 2019 at 11:55 PM Share Posted January 16, 2019 at 11:55 PM Jon is a hero and we need people like him in Illinois too. Bloomberg is infringing people's rights all over the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spec5 Posted January 17, 2019 at 03:26 AM Share Posted January 17, 2019 at 03:26 AM Maybe the SAF and NRA will help. Maybe Colorado has state organization like the ISRA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

springfield shooter Posted January 17, 2019 at 03:00 PM Share Posted January 17, 2019 at 03:00 PM I believe the city is registering, not confiscating. Actually, trying to register...with little apparent success. Either way, this man is pretty gutsy. And he's standing up for himself, fellow gun owners, AND the Constitution. Watch the video. Follow the link below. And notice how "tolerant" the so-called Progressive Left is. https://pagetwo.completecolorado.com/2019/01/02/caldara-on-january-1-i-became-a-gun-criminal-in-my-hometown-of-boulder/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flynn Posted January 17, 2019 at 10:42 PM Share Posted January 17, 2019 at 10:42 PM arresting this man would cause tons of headaches for police and politicians. Let's us not forget that his also a party to a lawsuit over this, if they muscled him at this point and try to silence him it very well could open up an even bigger can of worms and legal issues.

Hopefully I will be out of Illinois by then or he has a heart attack. A man of the people, just what people is he referring to?

Down state is a far better place than Crook County. One big city dictates how everyone else is going to behave. It is Chicago and for that matter Illinois.
