Washington State prepares gun control nullification bill


As the call for more gun control continues, governors, lawmakers, sheriffs, and citizens across the country are taking a stand.

After the tragic Sandy Hook shooting, gun control advocates immediately jumped on the opportunity to dust off old gun control legislation, specifically advocating for a ban on "assault weapons."

Even though the FBI's own crime statistics show that more people are killed by blunt objects like hammers, than so called "assault rifles," the call to ban rifles from 99.9% of law abiding responsible gun owners, due to the action of a few, still remains.

Attorney General Eric Holder, most famous for shipping guns to drug cartels to undermine the second amendment as admitted by documents leaked to CBS News, is now pushing gun control proposals in the wake of President Obama's announcement on 23 Executive actions. Senator Diane Feinstein, well know for her anti-gun stance, has released a list of 157 rifles, handguns and shotguns that will be banned if her legislation passes Congress.

Over 90 Sheriffs have now come forward to say that they will uphold the Constitution and not enforce any new gun bans or measures. In Mississippi, Gov. Phil Bryant urged state lawmakers to immediately pass legislation that would make any unconstitutional order by the President illegal to enforce in Mississippi. A Texas lawmaker has taken it a step further, attempting to introduce legislation that would have federal officials arrested if they attempt to enforce new gun laws in the state. South Carolina, Tennessee and Indiana are drafting similar legislation as well.

Now in Washington State, Representatives have introduced HB 1371, The Washington State Firearms Freedom Act.

"Any federal law, rule, regulation, or order created or effective on or after January 1, 2013, shall be unenforceable within the borders of Washington if the law, rule, regulation, or order attempts to: (a) Ban or restrict ownership of a semiautomatic firearm or any magazine of a firearm; or (b) Require any firearm, magazine, or other firearm accessory to be registered in any manner," the bill reads.

The bill leaves no important 2nd amendment right unchecked. "During the continuance of any state of emergency, neither the governor nor any governmental entity or political subdivision of the state shall impose any restriction on the possession, transfer, sale, transport, storage, display, or use of firearms or ammunition that is otherwise authorized or guaranteed by law," pg 7 reads.

Just 12 days ago I took my oath of office to uphold the US and Washington State Constitutions. Both are clear, the right to bear arms "shall not be impaired" or "infringed". We have already seen action at the Federal level to limit or control firearms contrary to the US Constitution. The Firearms Freedom Act simply upholds our constitutionally guaranteed rights," said Rep. David Taylor, the primary sponsor of the bill.

2nd amendment supporters are encouraged to contact Washington State Representatives and ask them to sponsor and support the bill.

That isn't even remotely true. Among the 50% of the public who didn't plan to vote, an overwhelming portion of them preferred Obama to Romney. By a 3-1 margin:

Comprise. Anyway, I'd like to see your evidence of that.

You seriously think just because some one is a registered democrat they don't hunt? Hunting crosses party lines and has always maintained strong support, even among those that do not hunt or hunt actively.

Now Obama's base, the fringe left whackos, are not going to have a problem with doing away with guns all together. But in the main stream of the country, this is a big issue.

The anti-Christ label that has been thrown at him would be very easy to believe if he wasn't such a polarizing figure. The rock star status is absolute bewildering.

I was just curious what data you are using to support that point. That's all.

That's my entire point: Obama's base DOES hate guns. And that base is a vast majority of his voters. I am highly suspicious of any argument that claims Obama was winning any reasonable portion of gun owners.

You have too high an estimation of the percentage of the population the fringe left makes up. Obama had most card carrying democratic gun owners because up that point he hadn't really touched the issue. There are plenty of union members nation wide who vote democrat because they are suppose to who also love to hunt. And wouldn't surprise me if they are not as liberal as their voting would suggest (I have no data for that, merely speculation).
