Is it just me, or is Colorado always in the news for something bad?
Whether it's JonBenet Ramsey, Columbine, Kobe Bryant, Ward Chruchill, Bailey, David McSwayne (although I consider that a good thing, it was negative coverage), or the recent church shootings. Maybe I sound a little irrational, but I feel like my state is cursed. I just feel like we've had way, way more than our share of tragedy (especially gun-related) here in CO.

You could be in Florida or Texas.

3. Or Virginia or Oklahoma or New York
I understand your point. It's true that lightning should never strike more than once in the same place, if you know what I mean.

4. It's Karma
Musgrave continues to get elected, so the state gets punished.

Ok, glib, sorry. :-)

5. It seems like all the most bloodthirsty and evil mass murderers are from here

Sometimes I wonder if I should move to a state with fewer psychotic Rambo wannabes
