To gain a better understanding of how your CSS is structured, I recommend reviewing this particular page in the documentation.
The example showcases how non-responsive CSS operates within that context.
/* Overriding Non-Responsiveness
*
* Use the provided CSS to eliminate responsiveness from the container,
* grid system, and navbar.
*/
/* Resetting the container */
.container {
width: 970px;
max-width: none !important;
}
/* Displaying the grids */
.col-xs-4 {
padding-top: 15px;
padding-bottom: 15px;
background-color: #eee;
background-color: rgba(86,61,124,.15);
border: 1px solid #ddd;
border: 1px solid rgba(86,61,124,.2);
}
.container .navbar-header,
.container .navbar-collapse {
margin-right: 0;
margin-left: 0;
}
/* Ensuring navbar header floats consistently */
.navbar-header {
float: left;
}
/* Disabling collapsed navbar functionality */
.navbar-collapse {
display: block !important;
height: auto !important;
padding-bottom: 0;
overflow: visible !important;
visibility: visible !important;
}
.navbar-toggle {
display: none;
}
.navbar-collapse {
border-top: 0;
}
.navbar-brand {
margin-left: -15px;
}
/* Applying floated navigation always */
.navbar-nav {
float: left;
margin: 0;
}
.navbar-nav > li {
float: left;
}
.navbar-nav > li > a {
padding: 15px;
}
/* Readjusting due to float override above */
.navbar-nav.navbar-right {
float: right;
}
/* Reverting custom dropdown alterations */
.navbar .navbar-nav .open .dropdown-menu {
position: absolute;
float: left;
background-color: #fff;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
border: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, .15);

/* Pasting from forms.less as .form-inline styles are mixed in */

If you're interested in utilizing .col-xs* consistently, this class should be specified in your element's definition. Unless you opt for a script to automatically replace all instances of .col-* with .col-xs, manual adjustments will be necessary.
