In the wake of several high-profile mass shootings, several Colorado communities have passed or are considering stronger gun control measures. But the legal future of these measures may be in jeopardy
DENVER — In the wake of several high-profile mass shootings, several Colorado communities—including Louisville and Boulder—have passed or are considering stronger gun control measures.
The ordinances—as well as laws in states across the country—could soon brush up against an impending Supreme Court ruling in the case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association Inc. v. Bruen. The case questions the constitutionality of a law more than a century old in New York, which requires a person requesting a concealed carry permit to demonstrate the need for self defense.
“The only question is how broad and sweeping will their opinion be,” Farrell said. “If the opinion is handed down in such a way that calls into question some of the laws and ordinances here in Colorado, then that would allow for a challenge to be made against those laws here in Colorado.”
