Colorado drone hunting ordinance shot down. Oh the irony.

Courtesy of Esquire:  

Deer Trail, Colorado residents shot down their infamous drone hunting ordinance on Tuesday, showing that at least 73% of the small town’s residents have common sense. The matter fell to the voters after the town’s board came to a 3-3 draw on enacting the legislation, which had strong support from the mayor. 

Well, ex-mayor. Not too surprisingly, he didn’t make it past Tuesday, either. 

It had been a good run for the ordinance’s author Phil Steele, who had been preemptively selling the licenses since the fall, with up to 900 of the now-decorative paper permits being issued, though, Steele admitted to the LA Times, only three of them went to residents.

What? Now Deer Trail, Colorado residents will not have a reason to discharge firearms indiscriminately into the sky?

It's like they have lost their raison d'etre.

    The fact that it came to a 3-3 draw is telling enough. Lemme guess, the loss will be taken as just another attack on the "god-given" rights and freedoms of patriotic Americans.

    Cue Ted Cruz, Palin, the NRA, et al., in 5...4...3...2...

    Charles Koch Claims That African American President Barack Obama Has Stolen His Freedom

    ...Charles Koch’s image as a wealthy, greedy, power-hungry liar, and anti-American corporate fascist is well-deserved and his self-promoting “woe is me, I am god” piece only proved that every collectivist armed with reams and reams of publicly-available assertions are not guilty of character assassination, but of doing something the Koch brothers are incapable of; telling the truth.
