Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser reminded local law enforcement that they swore an “oath to uphold the rule of law” in a statement Thursday. The reminder comes after numerous counties have passed resolutions denouncing “red flag” gun control legislation that’s expected to pass.
House Bill 1177 would allow family members or law enforcement to petition a judge to issue a temporary extreme risk protection order (ERPO) for a person thought to be a threat, after which the person’s weapons could be temporarily seized for up to a year.
Weiser supports the bill and said he believes “it passes constitutional muster.” Read more …
For economic lessons, read children’s fairy tales and ignore socialist ones.
‘The sky is falling!” warned Chicken Little. The Little Red Hen was made of sturdier stuff. You could make a case that she invented supply-side economics, which is based on the premise that you gotta work if you wanna eat—in more formal terms, that production necessarily precedes consumption.
The Little Red Hen found a grain of wheat and somehow managed to grow a crop, asking her fellow creatures if they’d like to help with the planting, the cultivation, the harvest, the grinding of the flour and the baking of the bread. They were always too busy watching television or texting each other. But when they sniffed the delightful aroma of the freshly baked bread, they came out to the kitchen to get a slice. The Little Red Hen told them to get lost: “I made it all myself and, by heavens, I’ll eat it all myself.” When they yelled, “You didn’t build that!” she told them to get a life. A freshman congresswoman cried that everyone should have bread even if they didn’t “feel like” working. The Little Red Hen told her to butt out.

The moral: Hard-working people aren’t tolerant of slackers.
Then there was the Vermont senator who was deeply dissatisfied with a goose that was laying golden eggs but didn’t care about social justice. He thought that if he could learn the goose’s secret, he and his fellow senators could pass a law that would replicate the process.
‘Second Amendment sanctuary’ counties say they won’t enforce background checks, other gun-control proposals

SANTA FE, N.M.—In swaths of rural America, county sheriffs, prosecutors and other local officials are mounting resistance to gun-control measures moving through legislatures in Democratic-led states.
The “Second Amendment sanctuary” movement has taken hold in more than 100 counties in several states, including New Mexico and Illinois, where local law-enforcement and county leaders are saying they won’t enforce new legislation that infringes on the constitutional right to bear arms.
For instance, in New Mexico, 30 of 33 county sheriffs have signed a letter pledging to not help enforce several gun-control measures supported by Democrats in Santa Fe, according to the state’s sheriff association. The sheriffs, who are elected, say they are heeding the wishes of voters in the counties they serve. More than two dozen counties in the state have enacted “sanctuary” resolutions backing the sheriffs and affirming that no tax dollars in their jurisdictions should go to enforcing the proposed laws.
Nationwide, some see their battle as a conservative version of the “sanctuary” resistance to the Trump administration’s illegal-immigration crackdown led by Democratic mayors in major cities like New York and Los Angeles.
“If a state or city can become a sanctuary for illegal immigration, then we can become a sanctuary for Second Amendment rights,” said Russell Shafer, sheriff of Quay County in eastern New Mexico.
Across the country, radio stations and their listeners continue to debate what should be done about the 1944 Christmas song “Baby It’s Cold Outside.”
The tune made headlines this holiday season when Cleveland radio station WDOK announced it would cease playing the song after some listeners complained its lyrics hadn’t aged well amid the #MeToo movement.
Now radio stations all around the United States are beginning to follow suit, with mixed reactions from listeners. Read more …
