CO has to chance to close a firearm high capacity magazine loophole that the gun manufacturers & dealers have exploited for 10+ yrs. The Boulder King Soopers and Colo Spgs Club Q shootings are blood on their hands. I’ll be at the state Capitol wearing red on 1/28 to support SB25-003, will you?

Just started a 2025 Democracy Diet 1. Decommissioning my personal FB, IG & Threads accts (ditched X long ago) 2. Using Amazon solely for searches & then, whenever possible, purchasing from another vendor. 3. Giving up Whole Foods (I will miss those green chili empanadas!). Any other suggestions?
