As a Colorado native and veteran of the Colorado Air National Guard I have a lot of pride for our states heritage. I must say I'm saddened by its continued urbanization and lack of reverence for its history. Unfortunately, guns and dense populations will always be at odds for a number of reasons. An educated, well trained gun owner could end up being the difference between one dead or multiple dead. Conversely, a gun owner with poor training in an urban environment could easily cause more harm than good. The military doesn't give you a single training regimen to use a weapon, its a recurring process to earn the right. It would be wise for any member of society with a CC permit to have continuing education and be proactive regarding urban live fire practices to minimize the danger to themselves or others.

For those who would rather lay down their arms in favor of government enforcement, I should hope that none of you ever disagree with their course of action once you do.
