The first two stories appeared on page A1, top half. The third appeared on B1, State/Local news. Read into that what you like. I'd say, based on my knowledge of the Gazette's determinedly conservative stance, that the final story was relegated to the Local section simply because no one was worried about the outcome.
FWIW, the Gazette refuses to sensationalize gun-related incidents. There was a shooting in a bar two weeks ago, in which someone just walked in, capped a guy sitting at the bar, and walked out. The Gazette mentioned it once, the day after it happened, then mentioned that the shooter had been apprehended a few days later. No ranting, no lecturing, just "This is what happened."
I don't know that the Rocky Mountain News or the Denver Post ever picked up on either case. If they had, they'd be screeching hysterically about the "gun culture" down here like they always do, despite the fact that Denver's violent crime rate is 4x higher than C-Springs, and Denver has the worst laws in the state.
Since I don't have a TV, I don't know what the talking heads are saying about it. Not much, apparently, as the old farts at the range wanted details that they weren't getting through the media.
Sometimes, the press is on our side.
