COLORADO SPRINGS — Two Colorado Democrats who provided crucial support for a slate of tough new gun-control laws were voted out of office on Tuesday in a recall vote widely seen as a test of popular support for gun restrictions after mass shootings in a Colorado movie theater and a Connecticut elementary school.

The election, which came five months after the United States Senate defeated several gun restrictions, handed another loss to gun-control supporters. It also gave moderate lawmakers across the country a warning about the political risks of voting for tougher gun laws.

The recall elections ousted two Democratic state senators, John Morse and Angela Giron, and replaced them with Republicans. Both defeats were painful for Democrats – Mr. Morse’s because he had been Senate president, and Ms. Giron’s because she represented a heavily Democratic, working-class slice of southern Colorado.

In an emotional concession speech, Mr. Morse called the loss of his seat “purely symbolic” and defended the record of the last legislative session as “phenomenal.”

“We made Colorado safer from gun violence,” he said afterward, as his supporters trickled away from a hotel ballroom here in his district. “If it cost me my political  career, that’s a small price to pay.”

What is his DU name? ****ing moonbat.

His misbegotten efforts to punish honest Citizens for exercising their natural right of self-defense did not remove a single gun from the hands of criminals.

If your record was so "phenomenal" why did 23% of the registered Democrats in your disctrict sign the recall petition?

I would now like for certain NY state legislators to be squirming uncomfortably in their seats.  Mine, for one.  A dingbat named Addie Jennie Russell, a Dimocrat, voted for Cuomo's gun grab and idiotic bans.  Even though her district is all woods and farm, she just had to line up behind Andy, no matter what.  The area up here screamed against NY Safe Act.

There are numerous properties that have yard signs displaying "No NY Safe Act."  I was thinking what a great home invasion protection.  A would-be invader would see that, and know that not only a gun owner lives there, an enthusiastic gun owner lives there.

There are two sides to that, on the one hand it makes criminals avoid it if they think anyone mignt be home, but on the other hand it makes you a burglary target for either more patient types or the neighbor's dirtbag kids and/or associates once they are sure there isn't anybody home.

Where the **** is it written that these douchebags are supposed to have a "political career?"

**** you, asshat. Pack your shit and do the duffle bag drag, you pile of putrid proglodyte shit.

Gotta love the Governors "typical" Proglodyte response:

Obviously I’ll have to do a better job of getting the facts out there.” Hickenlooper continued.

Also, I found the "defiance" of those ousted, laughable.

Hickenlooper had presidential aspirations. His obsequiousness curbed his ambitions.

I have yet to see or hear about a single gun committing an act of violence.  It is always a person that commits violence.

And usually, a "DUmbass Dhimmi'Rat" -type person, truth be told.

Especially that chick.  There's a clip of her on CNN having a meltdown.  Ranting that it must have been voter suppression, what else it possibly be?  The anchor pushed back, giving a dose of reality, and she freaked. 

When sacked, quiet dignity is what is called for.

Not temper tantrums ? How becoming.

Can you put your finger on that clip, Karin?
