Colorado Republican State Rep. Ken DeGraaf was forced to cover a “Shall not be infringed – 2A” sticker on his laptop during a House session on Friday, as it was deemed “offensive.”
The sticky incident occurred during a debate over SB25-003, which seeks to ban the manufacture, distribution, transfer, sale, and purchase of specified semiautomatic firearms in Colorado, classifying rapid-fire devices as “dangerous weapons.”
The bill also includes provisions for a Firearm Owner Identification (FOID) system, requiring instructors to verify completion of firearms safety courses and mandating federal firearms licensees to check a buyer’s eligibility for semiautomatic firearms.
“I had to cover up this, they couldn’t stand my sticker,” Rep. DeGraaf said while speaking on the House floor.
“It said ‘shall not be infringed’ and signed ‘2A’ and that was considered offensive, which I understand would be offensive to this bill,” he added.

Rep. DeGraaf, a vocal opponent of the bill, accused Democratic colleagues of being offended by the U.S. Constitution.
Fox News reports, “As DeGraaf lamented the covering of the sticker, he was informed that the only reason for the request was because such displays are banned in the “well” of the chamber, which sits between the chamber’s front desk and the first row of member seats.”
“So OK, no displays of the Constitution in the well, got it,” Rep. DeGraaf fired back.
