We're hardly done fighting this, but we'll do it without hurting the good people.

I'm not sure why you think you have to solve our problems?

There is not a soul on this earth that thinks California can be turned around. I think Colorado is probably lost too. We called, emailed and wrote letters until we were blue in the face. The LIBS in control don't give a rats behind what the people want.

I don't think what you are doing will work either. I think there will be plenty of hunters from out of state. I hope it works but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Thanks for trying something.

The difference between CA and CO is the CA economy is not as dependent on hunting, camping, fishing, etc?

Don't give up

Are you stating a fact or asking a question?

A11en I see how youre taking a wider view of my statement, but, if you owned business in Colorado which were heavily dependent upon hunting, would you be right here telling us to go through with this boycott?

I think not. Its not so easy when it hurts our own pockets.

You people in Colorado need to get a handle on your liberals and ship them back to California where they belong. They definately don't belong in an elected office. I love Colorado but it's so hard to find a place to hunt thats not overhunted and not we have to try to find someplace thats hippie free
This statement is short sighted and purely based on a generalization. It added very little to this discussion. I could very well have said that I don't want to hunt where Indians are on peyote with guns, or rednecks drunk with guns. Im sure there will always be a few out there, but his statement isn't very well thought out.

I mean I don't know how he expects us to "get a handle on your liberals and ship them back to California where they belong". Yea lets throw them on a train = \

Chopayne, That is exactly my point. We are thinking alike, I'm just suggesting we apply the same logic to the liberals... a political jiu-jitsu if you will...


If the liberals realize these new laws actually "hurt their own pockets", they will reverse them. Again, I realize the short term results of a boycott impact good people, but if these laws continue to pass incrementally, the way of life you are protecting won't exist at all in the future. The only way to change the minds of the liberals is to create a direct connection between the laws they pass and a negative experience that impacts them.

Magpul understands this. They recognize the short term pain of up rooting their business and moving to a new state will have short term "pain", but its the right thing to do to protect their long term business.

I personally think we've just about beat this horse to death.
Some people think one way some people think another and
we all care about our freedom. I won't be boycotting Colorado.
