They would have to change both Constitutions to make it state wide wouldn't they?

Same people who cry that a $13 fee for a driver's license burdens people trying to exercise their right to vote.

I'm sure the ACLU will be all over this one, don't worry.

Just saw that the Seattle City council approved this.  Gun rights groups are preparing to file lawsuits.

As long as there are, Liberals/Progressives/Communists and Democrats, THERE will be ATTACKS on the Constitution both Federal and State by these low life's!

Their EMOTIONAL fixes are NEVER satisfied, just like the drug junkies!!  Oh wait, its legal in some fashion already!! :o

Pot stores are more important then gun stores, NOW you now the REAL reason behind the move :chuckle:

I have said it before. I go out of my way not to do business with Seattle or companies that operate there.

They will.  These idiots just keep throwing wet noodles on the wall and hope they stick.  I'm a firm believer that everytime we get these moronic laws enacted, 2nd admendment groups need to sue and establish more rulings that protect our rights.

Another "feel good" law that everyone knows will have no effect. Similar to the law they passed a couple of years ago banning guns in public parks (did anyone really believe that gang bangers were going to see a sign that said no guns allowed and leave their guns in the car?) Obviously the only people effected are those businesses in Seattle dealing in guns and ammo who will see all of their customers making the short drive to Everett or Federal Way to make their purchases. Seattle is what it is.  The cities voters want this type of law and the city council is only too willing too oblige-I don't think anyone with an IQ out of double digits thinks this will really accomplish anything.  I guess they'll sleep better at night thinking "by golly, we passed a law, that'll take care of the problem".

Yes! And as a result of folks making their firearm/ammo purchases in other cities Seattle will not collect the gun tax OR the municipal portion of sales tax which I believe is 2.6%. This is so utterly stupid - they hurt local businesses, infringe on the rights of law biding citizens and cant find a way to get paid for it.

 Anybody else as fed up with Seattles BS legislation, and just hope at this point that EVERYTHING their liberal minds can come up with passes, so the entire city goes the way of Detroit? Let them create their utopia so libs  can live their dream.

 It's happening anyway just at a slower pace, let's just get it over with.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

I would love to see socialist Seattle implode. Unfortunately there's just to much money there for it to happen.

You're actually upset that the business hub of the whole state is doing too well?

This new tax is annoying. But I buy my ammo online anyway and I'll just have to buy my guns in Bellevue I guess. Not really a life changing event...

This has been scrolling across CNN on the bottom all day. Only high point is NRA and NAGR is coming out against it.
But ya this is certain to pass and anyone in seattle will have to dig a bit deeper to pay this crap.
Unless you happen to drive outside the city then your good I guess. But still. :bash:
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

Problem is it starts there, but usually never stays there.
