BREAKING:
According to The Washington Post, June 3, 2013 article Recall election looms for Colo. senator who backed gun control the Senate President John Morse is now facing a Recall Election over his support of severe Gun Control laws in Colorado. Quoting from thewashingtonpost.com article (Source AP)
DENVER — Gun-rights activists in Colorado turned in petition signatures Monday to set up the first recall in state history of a state lawmaker after he backed some of the strictest gun control measures to become law in the U.S. this year.
The opponents of Democratic Senate President John Morse said they turned in twice as many signatures as needed Monday to put Morse back on the ballot. Carting white paper boxes of petitions, the gun-rights advocates said Morse will pay for backing a series of gun control measures that were signed into law earlier this year.
[...]
“This shot will be heard around the world,” said Bill Adaska, a retired engineer from Denver who volunteered to gather recall signatures in Morse’s Colorado Springs district. “This is the race, right here, that’s going to show Washington and Chicago that when you come after our guns, we’re going to take you out.”
Adaska is referring to a gun-control package that made Colorado the first state outside the East Coast to significantly ratchet back gun rights after last year’s mass shootings in Aurora, Colo., and Newtown, Mass. The Colorado package included expanded background checks to include private and online gun sales, plus a 15-round limit on most types of ammunition magazines.
The significance of this cannot be overstated. Colorado has Recall Laws that enable the recall of any Elected Official. It remains to be seen if the citizens of Colorado will attempt to Recall Governor John Hickenlooper
The news is now in the progress of going viral in what represents a clear signal that The People are fighting back and taking action. The news of this Recall Election is reported in only a few publications, so it is questionable how many people in the U.S. will learn of this news. Other news sources include:
