The new gun laws sure seem to be working...

So glad I have to wait three days after buying a shotgun. It's amazing how much of a deterrent the new Visa Gun Registry, waiting list, and age restrictions are.

I really love jumping through hopes to exercise my rights. Hey, maybe next they will make me log into my citizens portal that monitors all of my online use just in case there is a chance to catch the next 1:99999999 terrorist that isn't a part of a three letter agencies.

Colorado is such a big freedom loving state.

/s if it wasn't obvious.

Colorado Secretary Of State ‘Extremely Concerned’ About Pro-Trump Violence

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/9839986

Jena Griswold received 64 death threats and more than 900 threats of abuse within three weeks of the case being filed to keep Trump off the state ballot.

Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold said Wednesday she is “extremely concerned” about fanatical supporters of Donald Trump becoming violent in response to the state Supreme Court ruling that Trump is ineligible to appear on Colorado’s 2024 presidential primary ballot.

“I’ve been concerned about violence and threats of violence since Donald Trump incited the insurrection,” Griswold, who has been Colorado’s Democratic secretary of state since 2019, said in an interview. “I’ve received hundreds if not thousands of threats at this point.”

She’s faced an astounding uptick in threats amid the lawsuit over Trump’s eligibility to appear on the state ballot, even though she has nothing to do with it. The case, which was brought in September by the group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, was filed by six unaffiliated and Republican voters in Colorado.
