Democrat Rep. Zokaie compares concerned parents to KKK during hearing on HB25-1312

A Colorado Democrat likened parent groups to “the KKK” during an hours-long committee hearing for a controversial bill that could see parents accused of “coercive control” in custody fights for using a trans child’s “deadname.”

“I really am curious about how much stakeholdering went on both sides of the issue, and not just one side,” Republican state Rep. Jarvis Caldwell said during the hearing, which began Monday night and ran into early Tuesday. “I’m curious with if the businesses in the community were included in these and if parent groups that are not part of the LGBT community if they were involved.”

Colorado’s gun control déjà vu: D.C. law failed, will Polis repeat it?

Gov. Polis’s head must be heavy under the weight of his crown as he contemplates whether to sign a bill denying Coloradan’s their 2nd Amendment right to bear arms, or be a Constitution loving Democrat as they all claim these days.

Misleading headlines suggest the bill merely requires gun owners take a class before buying a gun, and yet the legislation on Polis’s desk grants government authority over who can buy commonly used guns for self protection.
