Colorado’s gun grabbers are back at it, with Senate Bill 26-004 slated for its second reading on the Senate floor this Friday, January 30th. This isn’t some minor tweak—it’s a brazen expansion of the state’s already draconian red flag law, aiming to supercharge the process for stripping law-abiding citizens of their Second Amendment rights without due process. Under the current regime, a single ex parte hearing can lead to firearms confiscation based on mere allegations of danger, often from biased parties like jilted lovers or activist neighbors. SB 26-004 ramps this up by broadening who can petition (think more busybodies with grudges), extending seizure durations, and embedding it deeper into the welfare-check apparatus, all while Colorado’s Dem supermajority salivates over public safety theater.

Let’s cut through the fog: this bill is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, disguised as mental health reform but really about preemptively disarming dissenters in a state that’s become a petri dish for anti-2A experiments. Remember Parkland? Colorado’s original red flag law was rushed through post-Parkland hysteria, and now they’re iterating on it like it’s a buggy app—except the bug is your constitutional protections. Data from states like California and New York shows these laws rarely stop violence (perpetrators aren’t suicidal; they’re murderous), but they excel at ruining lives: false positives lead to job loss, stigma, and years-long legal battles to reclaim your property. With the NRA and local 2A warriors like the RMGO sounding alarms, this could be a flashpoint—expect packed galleries and viral pushback if it advances.

For the 2A community, the implications are crystal clear: this is domino number one in a cascade toward universal background checks 2.0 or outright registries. Colorado’s already hemorrhaging residents to freer states like Texas and Idaho—pass this, and watch the exodus accelerate, guns in tow. Patriots, mark your calendars for Friday; flood your state senators with calls (find them at leg.colorado.gov), rally up, and turn this reading into a reckoning. If we let Polis’s playground erode the right to self-defense one emergency at a time, what’s next—your AR for a bad tweet? Stand firm; the Second Amendment isn’t negotiable.
