The news of the horrifying armed assault in Aurora, Colo. just a
half-hour drive from the site of the Columbine High School shootings in
1999 has a freakish resonance in a state that has long played an unsought
role in the national debate over gun laws and firearm rights.
.
As a mountain state, Colorado has a history of broad support for Second
Amendment rights. But in the years since the Columbine tragedy, the states
lawmakers and voters passed some gun restrictions, including requirements
governing the sale of firearms at gun shows, a law regulating peoples
ability to carry concealed weapons and legislation banning straw purchases
of weapons for people who would not qualify to buy them legitimately.
.
Still, James Holmes, 24, the former neuroscience student believed to be
the lone gunman in Fridays shootings in Aurora, armed himself with an
assault rifle, a shotgun and a handgun to allegedly kill 12 and wound 59
others, many critically. All were weapons that would probably be legal for
him to possess.
.
The guy basically had normal guns, said Eugene Volokh, an expert in
constitutional law at the University of California, Los Angeles. Unless
some new evidence of documented psychiatric disturbance emerges, Mr.
Volokh added, theres no indication that, from his record, he is someone
whom more restrictive screening procedures would have caught.
.
Despite the changes over the past 13 years, Colorado law still prohibits
local governments from restricting gun rights in several significant ways.
Moreover, gun rights organizations have successfully fought other efforts
to restrict access to guns, including blocking a University of Colorado
rule prohibiting concealed weapons on campus.
.
People in Colorado are allowed to carry firearms in a vehicle, loaded or
unloaded, as long as the gun is intended for lawful uses like personal
protection or protecting property.
