Colorado's House Judiciary Committee is gearing up for a barrage of firearm-related hearings next week, kicking off Tuesday, February 17th, with multiple bills teed up for scrutiny. This isn't just routine legislative housekeeping—it's a full-frontal assault on Second Amendment rights in a state that's already become a poster child for gun-grabber overreach. Think assault weapon bans, magazine capacity limits, red flag expansions, and who knows what other common-sense measures the anti-2A crowd is dreaming up. With Democrats holding the reins in the legislature and Governor Jared Polis's veto pen looking increasingly reluctant, these hearings could fast-track a slew of restrictions that echo California's playbook, turning the Centennial State into another no-go zone for law-abiding gun owners. Digging deeper, the timing screams strategy: post-New Year session ramp-up, right as national eyes might be elsewhere, allowing bill sponsors to build momentum before public pushback mobilizes. We've seen this movie before—remember 2013's post-Aurora magazine ban or 2021's laundry list of regs? Each time, the 2A community rallied with packed hearings, flooded phone lines, and grassroots firepower from groups like Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, forcing compromises or outright kills. But vigilance is key; these panels often serve as echo chambers where experts peddle junk science on gun violence, ignoring FBI data showing defensive gun uses dwarf criminal misuse. Implications? If these bills advance, expect skyrocketing compliance costs, black market booms for standard-capacity mags, and eroded self-defense rights for Coloradans facing urban crime waves that no law has curbed. 2A warriors, this is your wake-up call—mark your calendars, sharpen your testimonies, and flood the virtual mic. Contact your reps now via the CO House site, join RMGO alerts, and show up en masse. History proves organized patriots can stall the statist steamroller; let's make next week's hearings a rout for freedom, not a rubber stamp for tyranny. Stay armed, stay informed, and keep fighting.
