Excerpt:
"Responding to Barack Obama’s visit to Colorado yesterday, during which
he pushed for new gun control laws, Elbert County Sheriff Shayne Heap
slammed the President for politically exploiting recent tragedies by
using 'fear' and 'grandstanding.' More than a dozen Colorado sheriffs held a press
conference yesterday in opposition to newly passed laws in the state
that prohibit the sale of magazines which hold more than 15 bullets, in
addition to mandating background checks for all private gun sales. In a YouTube video, Heap said the new laws bordered on 'legislative abuse' and only served to punish law-abiding citizens,
adding that Obama flew in from DC, a city which has one of the highest
per capita murder rates in the country."
