CO Supremes Emphasize "Rule" in "Home Rule"

A divided Colorado Supreme Court on Monday let stand a ruling upholding Denver’s controversial ban on assault weapons and other gun control regulations despite arguments that state law trumps local ordinances.

The 3-3 vote, with new Justice Allison Eid abstaining, means Denver may resume enforcing ordinances put on hold after two state laws were enacted in 2003 that pre-empted most local regulation of firearms.

But because it was a tie vote, the Supreme Court did not provide an “ultimate ruling” on questions concerning when a home-rule city can issue ordinances superseding state law, said Assistant City Attorney David Broadwell.
Once more, black robed activists trump freedom and dictate from the bench. The law is plain, but they ignore it because they can.

The correct political response is for Coloradans to press for impeachment and revenge themselves on the politicians who supported the nomination and confirmation of the outlaw jurists.

Yeah, right, like any but a handful will be motivated enough for that to happen.
