Only 2 years after I-594 and 6 months after I-1639 and still these laws have done nothing but disporportionately affect the people of lawfulness in this state?! At what point do they realize that the numbers don't lie, crime is up, illegal laws don't work!!!!
I am NOT a conspiracy theorist, but I do recognize patterns.
I smell another mass shooting coming to Washington, perfectly timed to drive their point across.
 
Lessee...
Encourage scoff-laws, drug-addicts and the mentally ill to gather within your cities and then be surprised that the crime rate goes up - then blame the law-abiding and ban the weapons that are least likely to be used in a crime - then, when that doesn't reduce crime, get more restrictive on the law-abiding and their possession while raising their taxes to support and encourage the scoff-laws, drug addicts and the mentally ill... .
Does anybody see a pattern here?
 
I like how at the bottom of the article, the disclaim how they don't append comment threads on wire news sources so they can concentrate on local news. This is local news. Convenient that they used and AP article in a local paper about local events just so they can't have any commentary from the local opposition. Just seeing a pattern here.

The more chaos they can create, the more justification they have for new laws to "make us safe".
 
Sad thing about *buy it now* would be to end up like wherever that was back East where they outlawed sale AND possession of offending rifles.

THAT sucked.... No *grandfathering*.

I bought what I wanted when I-1639 passed.

I thought that I-1639 declared all semi-automatic rifles as "assault rifles"? Yet now they are saying it must be semi-automatic and have at least one of the characteristics they declare to be too dangerous for the people to own, one of which is the ability to accept a detachable magazine that holds more than 10-rounds. Therefore, the Ruger 10/22 and other such rifles will be outlawed.

If they get this insult passed, which grandfathers such offensive magazines and rifles, next year they will simply outlaw them and begin voluntary confiscation like they did with bump stocks.

That program was vastly under-funded, so if you didn't line up to get your $150 when you turned yours in, you were out of luck when the money ran out a couple of weeks later.

No one is going to turn in a thing if it comes to that. I don't think mandatory confiscation is coming anytime soon.

That said, time to buy a crate of pmags and a dozen lowers... This is so sad WA used to be one of the good guys but now with a communist city council in seattle, and the obvious shift of power from Olympia to Seattle, Ferguson might as well be a state official.
 
Speaking as a Native Seattleite, we don't have a Communists Councilman. We have eight Democrats and one from a party called the Socialist Alternative. She wasn't a mistake, she was just reelected.

Carry on.

In Washington you're allowed to put whatever letters next to your name that you want, Trump could put a D next to his name in WA and it would be legal as far as I know. The fact they aren't saying it out loud changes nothing, I go based on the policy not the hot air blown from their mouths.

What do we figure the odds are on this passing? With the loss of the seat in Bellevue I kinda see it happening, sad as it is to say.
 
If everything you say is true, why would they bother claiming they were Democrats? The Socialist said she was a Socialist, and got elected. Twice. So I think if they were Communist, they'd come out and say they were Communist.

We fired a gay Mayor because snow fell, and this being Seattle and not really used to snow, four inches paralyzed the city for four days.

The next Mayor, faced with everything from institutionalized racism on a police force that was under a court order to change its use-of-force policies to highway infrastructure that is overloaded every single day to assaults in broad daylight on attorneys entering the county courthouse, chose to spend his time and our millions revolutionizing our snow removal process. Because we fire Mayors who let snow pile up.

So now we have institutional racism on a police force that is still under court order to change, crumbling bridges (one fell down a couple years ago) and a courthouse that is in a war zone, but boy, howdy, two inches of snow fell last year and we had clear streets in twelve hours flat.

To be fair, the bridge crumbled because it was hit by an over size load that compromised its structural integrity.
 
Jammer, why don't you accept PMs? I wanted to talk to you privately (in a good way!)
 
There is still a legislature in WA regardless of what the gov and AT want. They don't make the laws. Contact your rep and tell them how you feel.

It remains to be seen whether Democratic lawmakers have the votes and political will to propel a ban on assault weapons to the governor’s desk in a 60-day legislative session.

Washington State’s preemption statute was passed in 1983 to maintain consistency of firearm and ammunition laws throughout the state. The State Legislature retained full authority to regulate and create laws pertaining to firearms and ammunition to ensure such consistency. Second Amendment rights are guaranteed to all citizens, regardless of where they reside.
