BREAKING: DOUBLE BREAKING: Both Anti-Gun Senators Angela Giron AND John Morse RECALLED in Colorado


The vote is over. Congratulations to the people of Colorado for standing up for their rights!

 

[Lammchop93]

How soon will these Senators be out of office? This is amazing news!!!

 

[Bigtanker]

By midnight would be great!

 

[csnoski]

Now they need to work to repeal those new laws!

 

[AngryRooster]

By midnight would be great!

Knock Knock. "I'm sorry but you must leave, you've been evicted"

Congratulations Colorado - you have the balls to stand up to Democrat party tyrants that trample your Second Amendment rights.

 

[Kedric]

Wow! Awesome news! Way to go, People of Colorado!
Now that's how you set a precedent!

 

[SaintsNSinners]

Can we recall our Pres?

Can we recall our Pres?

Too many dumb people would keep him.

 

[sb0]

Wow. I didn't think they'd pull it off. Good stuff.

 

[netsecurity]

I don't think it is too late to employ tar and feathers...

 

[rgrimm01]

That is only two of them. I am curious why there are not more going through the same process of recall?

 

[sadclownwp]

Prolly cause they are to busy smoking pot to be smart enough to recall the rest of there democrats and change there laws back.

 

[HeadlessRoland]

Excellent start.

Hope it sends a message to politicians in other states. Remember what your constituents want. Hope with the recall they also loss their "retirement" benefits. (If I was terminated I can lose mine.)

I think it's a message that many politicians will put in the memory banks and keep it handy. It's a wake up for those that try to impose restrictions and NOT take the interests of the voters into consideration.
All politicians better wake the F up and pay attention. I know the people are tired of it and it only takes one match to make a big fire.

Where is Mike Bloomberg, is he going to demand a refund of all the $$$ he sent to buy the vote?

 

[Birds Away]

Unfortunately, no lessons will be learned. The lefties will cry that "outside money", i.e. the evil NRA bought the vote. Of course, there will be no mention of Bloomberg pouring in the same or more money to sway it the other way.

The NRA ($360K) offset Bloomberg's ($350K) money, however the anti-recall group was allowed to accept unlimited donations and ended up spending much more money. I haven't read any concrete totals, but I've seen several estimates at being outspent 7-1. According to one: "The vote has involved more than $3.5 million in campaign contributions, nearly $3 million of it for the anti-recall effort."

This recall changes the Colorado legislature from 20D-15R to 18D-17R. It is unlikely to result in any laws being overturned, but it is much more about telling anti-gun legislatures that they ignore gun rights and the will of their constituents at their career's peril.
