""Albornoz said communities of color are “disproportionately affected” by gun violence and added, “The more we can do to get these tools of destruction out of the hands of people who nefariously plan on using them, the safer we will all be.”"
NEVER a single mention of actually prosecuting and LOCKING AWAY those "POC" who are actually victimizing the neighborhoods.
Minority neighborhoods have a long standing tradition of not wanting to rid themselves of the "criminal element" among them, but actually "rallying" to their defense. This is something that boggles the mind.

This is a lot of non-productive whining. I emailed Councilmember Albornoz as a resident of MoCo and asked to discuss my concerns with him, as someone who's actually built a ghost gun before and has kids.
I also requested a couple of other miscellaneous changes to MoCo weapons law, including formally removing the ban on shipping ammo into the county and putting in some sort of ft-lb floor on the firearms definition (to avoid criminalizing nerf guns and super soakers). We'll see where it goes.
Unfortunately, based on this WTOP article, it's looking very likely that state legislation is going to happen this year:

Seems like Delegate Lopez finally figured out why the previous bills kept failing, and isn't going to make the same mistake. We'll see what his bill's text says. :/
