HB 1240 "Assault Weapons Ban" Passes House

[luvmystang67]

I think the funniest thing is people who think they're going to pass guns down.

Do you still think you'll be allowed to even own these guns by that time?  Unless you're a year or less away from "passing them down", I can't imagine you being able to even possess them legally within the next 5 years.

Nobody wants to take your guns... RIGHT NOW... but that is clearly the next logical step for them.

Consider a law which bans people from moving to our state with their semi-auto firearms. This is unconstitutional on so many levels that it has an emergency clause to be signed by our King immediately. All the while, there's no emergency clause dealing with raised mandatory sentences for violent crime, fentanyl, human trafficking. We know what the king is trying to do and he's not even hiding it. God help us if we don't get him out of office in 2024...or his jester Ferguson.

Emergency clauses aren't that uncommon in WA. There's even been wildlife bills with emergency clauses.

All due respects, BT, is that all you got from my message?

If you haven't figured it out yet, just look at what just happened in Wisconsin!!!

Indoctrination Centers are FULL of the D's new recruits!  Minds of mush!

and

Elections have consequences!!

The D's are in "charge" of this state, NOT it's People!

The consequence is the outcome the majority of this states citizens are after.  The majority being left leaning and/or Democrats. 

Look at the polls and stats taken on gun control in areas that decide this states elections.  You will see that gun bans and restrictions are exactly what they want.

The current talking point that the D's (I'm talking citizens) are "waking up" simply isn't true in this state.  They are getting exactly what they want and will continue to vote for it.

Ya, the Seattle Times!!

Seen a "story" very similar to that one on another shooting site but a different news story teller. Even had the same picture of guns!  They listed their "resources" four of them, two were government agency's, CDC and I've forgotten the second one,  the other two were anti 2A activist groups.  I'll let you guess who!  Their DATA is twisted to support their agenda's,  dis-information at best, but its made up so to fool a lot of people.

None are reliable sources for the Truth, last 3 years have proven that.  But then the last couple of decades, any "news" agency with the word "Times" in their name have destroyed their credibility too!

Then there are the "Polls"!  Should be ignored at best!  I've lived in this state for 67 years and have never received a call or mailing for taking a "poll".   History's of polls are simple, "bought and paid for" by whoever is looking to show their agenda!

If this were an initiative instead of legislation, I'm guessing it would pass with 65-70% approval.

The last time I got a call about a poll about issues in Washington. One of first questions after confirming who I was, was if I voted democrat or conservative. When I said conservative, they said this call is over and hung up. Tells you they only want to call certain groups of people.

I just hope everyone on this site, is seeing the big picture. We continue on this course much longer this won't be Hunting Washington.com. It will be whaleandbirdsightings.com

You missed the point. 

You stated this state is ran by the D's and not it's people. 

The point of my post is that this state is a majority D state, and the Citizen majority wants what is happening, and will continue to vote for it.  The consequences of these elections are exactly what they want.   These are wins for them.  They want gun control, they want gun bans, and they voted accordingly.

The citizens in a few core population dense areas want this in this state and most big cities around the country. Look at a map of our state and the country and it is mostly red. Big cities are blue for the most part.

To bad this state didn't have a Majority "county's" vote!!  Lop sided at best!!   39 county's, yet 4 make all the decisions the rest have to live with!!

Problem is that it would still be the majority of the population.  The left is playing the long game and winning little issues at a time(death by 1000 cuts) whereas the right wants a solution to an issue all at once and then they look like extremists.  I feel if they would compromise on some issues and start trying to pull people from the middle left a little at a time there might be a chance to turn things around in WA.
