Time to turn up the intensity on my job search in ID or MT...if anyone knows of a construction company looking for an assistant PM or senior project engineer I'm interested!

The Dems bankrupted the state, LET the law suits begin!!  Then vote the Scum out!

Those ladies as primary and co-sponsers are looking out for our safety🥴🤣

Effective date as been extended to 2027 because they have absolutely zero clue how to implement this...WSP is scratching their heads....

So pass legislation without a path to implementation.. idiot's.
Talk about next level virtual signaling...WA is a lost cause.

It doesn't matter to them one little bit, all they know is as long as Every Town and Soros gives to their re-election bank accounts that is all that matters.

Just as is going on in Colorado!!  EVERY county sheriff is against the bill the Gov signed, but he is just as spineless as these women are!

Already been fingerprinted for my CCP and my UPIN and they still need another set of fingerprints from me?  Just shows they have no idea how difficult it already is to buy a gun legally yet they keep writing legislation.

Ahhhh but it will cost the taxpayers 20 million the first year and then go to 37 million!!  Who care's that we don't have the money, the taxpayers have bottomless pockets!!   Do you not see how the mind of a D functions???

AND, WSP figures it will take 40 employee's to handle the program, when it can be figured out!!  Now, when government says they need "40", it will turn into "80"!  Same goes for "costs" that too will double!  But hey, YOU ALL have tons of money, Right???  The D's in Olympia think YOU DO!

Originally I was interested in Idaho for hunting opportunities. Now I just want out of this crazy state!

The mind(less)D's come up with the wildest excuses!  But then, they love other people's so much it blinds them to the obvious!!  They believe firearm purchases will continue at their present rates!!  Ya can't fix stupid!  Their scheme is going to produce million of dollars for them!!!

You guys should all just move. Face it, they're not gonna vote them out in this state.  R"s ran a pretty good candidate for gov this past election and he still got easily defeated.  Talk all you want about voting them out, but it aint.gonna happen here. I grew up.in a state where people kept telling me  "if you don't like it, move"  so I did.  Never regretted it.

Some additional details from a Seattle Times article today. I wasn't aware of the live-fire requirement.

The measure, sponsored by Rep. Liz Berry, D-Seattle, along with a host of other Democratic House lawmakers, would require gun buyers to apply for a five-year permit by submitting fingerprints through a local law enforcement agency in the jurisdiction where they live. It would require a certificate of completion of a certified firearm safety course in the previous five years, or proof that applicants are exempt from taking the course. Fees and completed applications must also be submitted in order to apply for the permit, which must be renewed every five years.

Certified firearm training programs must also include live-fire exercises and demonstration by applicants that they can safely handle firearms, as well as the firing of a minimum of 50 rounds. Training can be sponsored by federal, state, tribal, county or municipal law enforcement agencies; colleges or universities; nationally recognized organizations that offer firearms training; or a firearms training school with certified instructors.
