Ruling elites put Aspen in danger

Aspen’s ruling elites prohibit firearms at polling places and public buildings. They believe law-abiding citizens haven’t the right of self-defense when a lawbreaker, who couldn’t care less what the ruling elites have decreed, decides to defy authority.

Here’s a question for the ruling elites: If having a firearm doesn’t make one more secure and safer, why do so many Coloradans, including Aspen residents, keep and bear arms? Remember, when seconds count the police are only minutes away.
