The morning news about sums it up.

"An Un-Natural sexual can get married and smoke weed in Colorado, but gun rights getting chopped."

If you guys are going to boycott anything, you need to make it the non hunting sports. Keep in mind there are some good country folks out their and they are being driven by the major city.

The same is going to happen right here in Texas starting next governor elections. I don't think many Texans realize, all the mayors of our major cities, are pro gun control.

You guys will obey or you will go to prison. Most of you don't have the balls to fight it. You'll just become sheeple.

How does punishing a company in Colorado help anything? If you really want to protest then send some money up to those who are in office and were against this.


Yes! A Weatherby does kill them deader.

Just stating a fact.

Most folks put their well being even above God according to Revelation, accept the mark of the beast, and turn in their brothers. Why would I expect most people to stand fast on the Constitution?

because colorado is a tourist destination, no money means no taxes. I lived there right in the middle of breckenridge/steamboat for 20 yrs. when the companies start seeing less income due to the bad decisions made by those in office then something will maybe get changed.

spending money on anything in the state is an endorsement for how the state is run.

Yeah it kinda sucks but I've already told my Colorado Buddies I won't be seeing them for the elk hunt this year like I'd planned. Colorado is not the only state on my list. Unfortunately we are in a time in which the Large Cities make policy for others, and since I'm not interested in moving to the Large City to help vote in people who want to make a policy change that I agree with.
So the only thing that I can do is spend my money in places and with companies that are more aligned with my beliefs and try to make them stronger.

You are speaking for yourself, not me. Don't call me sheepel and as far as balls are concerned, from my experience I've found the guys that talk the most sh#t are the first ones to submit, run, or hide under the table. If I want a sermon, I'll go to church, not a hunting forum.

I canceled a vacation to Colorado this summer. I will not spend a dime in that state if I can help it. I won't even buy Magpul again till they leave. Yes it may hurt some people, but maybe it will give those people some balls to stand up and take their state back.

I agree with you except punishing the outfitters. Obviously, they are against this legislation. Now , we need all the other businesses in Colorado that think this doesn't affect them to be against this legislation as well.

I hunt Colorado & will continue to do so. Not all of CO is like I-25 and the hippy ski resort towns.

Pitchfork,

I'm happy to see your enthusiastic energy. I'll take a sermon anytime in addition to Sundays. We'll see where you stand when it comes time brother.

I'm worried about your Soul Pitchfork. flame

I quit hunting in Colorado thirty years ago, but for different reasons. The folks in Wyoming are great and the hunting is good. So is the fishing.

Just remember your $ end up going to the State of Colorado one way or another via sales tax, fuel tax, license costs etc... That state is all about money and they don't care how they get it or who gets trampled on in the process. And believe me they don't appreciate you for spending your dollars there. All they care about is how much your going to spend and how soon are you going to leave and be on your way. If something hits them in the pocketbook for a year or two they will take notice! This is coming from a Colorado Native. My family lived it for well over 50 yrs. We all left around 2001 and never looked back.

I hunt for animals and adventure-not to make a political statement. If there is an animal I want to chase or a some country want to explore in Colorado I will go there if I please.

Thanks for your concern Johnny.

You might want to pay attention to your tag line. Until you walk in my shoes, I'd appreciate you not telling me how I feel, what I believe in or how I'm gonna react to someone or something.

I like the idea of a boycott. It will make it easier to draw the good tags!

If you do decide to cancel a previously planned trip, please take the time to let the folks in Colorado know what prompted your decision. Otherwise they may blame any decrease on the economy or just a change in people's plans.
