Chapter 10 - § 10.14 • FIREARMS
Jurisdiction | Colorado |
There are associations that have firearm restrictions. These, not surprisingly, are controversial. The question of the validity of these restrictions, however, does not yet appear to have been the subject of litigation.489 Some opponents of the restrictions argue that they violate the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution; however, whether courts would apply the federal constitution to a private community is doubtful,490 although there has been a lively debate, at least among journal commentators, about the extent to which common interest communities should be considered to be like municipal governments.491 Constitutional arguments aside, one commentary contends that restrictive covenants proscribing firearms are invalid because they do not "touch and concern the land."492
