That is exactly correct! On the Lars Larson talk radio show daily often comes on to talk about the current crime and the shootings is an ex Portland Cheff of police who is saying the shootings that have become out of control are the doing of Biden illegal immigrant invaders connected to the Mexican drug cartels who are having shoot outs with rial gangs and people also involved in the drug trade like he said there is a Russian gang involved in the drug trade and selling of children for sex slavery all of this in Portland is connected to the crime up and down the west coast and over all of the US. The KKK communist democrats don't want to enforce laws on these criminals because they crime and murder using guns is then said to be GUN VIOLENCE all to scare the stupid people into accepting these guns law bills to become law. The KKK communist democrats need violence and crime it is a tool use in all communism across the world to keep the country's population is a state of fear to continue to crack down on the population and as are own communist democrat use these violent criminal invading immigrants to cause crime and murder then little but little take our rights away from us like this anti 2A bill would do. It is going to take civil war to take American back from communist democrats. Has anyone thought of losing your right to drive a car - truck when the KKK communist democrats outlaw petroleum? When petroleum is outlawed the plastics - fertilizer and more are gone This is how sure the KKK communist democrats are of rigging all elections to be in control of the US to force all Americans to either walk or the very rich to buy a $100.000 electric car by 2030. The KKK communist democrats know this will start a war, so this is why we see across the U.S unconstitutional and illegal gun laws being passed or tried to be passes to get the guns now.
As a Washington State resident and a supporter of the Constitution: I do NOT support any action, bill, or legislation that restricts law abiding citizens from having the full access to their 2nd amendment freedoms. This country was founded upon these liberties and any attempt to remove them would be in direct violation of the oathes that every political figure swore to uphold. The very introduction of these bills incites a mistrust and transparency into the underlying motives of the current political leadership.
Having to own a gun for protection isn't a freedom! Having free healthcare like the developed countries is a freedom! Having homelessness living in houses is a freedom! Having the ability to only work one job not three is a freedom!
@TA-wg9oi freedom is the ability to have self determination, and decide what is best for yourself. Freedom is not having the government decide where you can live, what doctor you can see, and what job you are allowed to do. I work one blue collar job, live in a house, and take care of my own health by the choices I make in my life. I am technically "poor" and the only thing I want from the government is to step aside and allow me the freedom do what I want and stay out of my personal business. All of the "freedoms" you have described are choices you make, and are not the government's business to get involved in. The government does not provide freedoms, it is merely meant to protect your freedom of choice.
Hmm, I'm curious, exactly what are "2nd Amendment freedoms," and what does that have to do with what's going on in the Sovereign State of Washington? There seems to be a fundamental misunderstanding of what the 2nd Amendment is and isn't. The 2nd Amendment is an additional limitation on FEDERAL power to infringe upon our right to keep and bear arms, additionally no authority is granted to the federal government in its limited, enumerated powers to infringe upon them in the first place. The 2A is a restriction on the Federal government, not applicable to the State of Washington. Washington has it's own Constitution. Chief Justice John Marshall explained this back in the early 19th Century: “The constitution was ordained and established by the people of the United States for themselves, for their own government, and not for the government of the individual states. Each state established a constitution for itself, and in that constitution, provided such limitations and restrictions on the powers of its particular government, as its judgment dictated." The Federal Bill of Rights was never intended to apply to the States. Would you apply the 2nd Amendment to Canada, or to Great Britain, or to Japan...why not? That's right, because they are sovereign nations, the same goes for the States. The Declaration of Independence, the Treaty of Paris recognized each State in this way. "The Bill of Rights doesn’t give anybody any rights at all. It prohibits the FEDERAL Government from interfering with rights each individual already has. They should have called the first 10 amendments the “Bill of Restrictions.” It would have eliminated a lot of confusion." Rep Walsh was correct in citing the Washington State Constitution as the controlling authority, but subsequently went off the constitutional rails when he suggested a "Federal court" would overturn. It's none of the Feds business, it's not a Supreme Court issues. No question whatsoever HB1240 violates the Washington constitution's protection of the right to keep and bear arms. This is matter for state courts. The bill clearly is meant to not only impair the RTKBA, but with it's "Law Enforcement, government" exemption it's meant to give government a monopoly on force.
@@timmartin6410 The state of Washington is part of the United States and the US Constitution TRUMPS its constitution and socialist politicians...F@@k Inslee and FJB!
House speaker had the gavel in hand and hovering every single time an (R) came forth to speak, not once for a democrat though. This bill will cost lives, but they don't care even in the slightest.
im sure that one got knocked down because it supposedly disproportionately effects black people. Making the racist assumption that black people commit more violent crime, and they can appear to be racist.
Your correct. The real problem we are facing is a culture problem. Any gun law enacted will not reduce crime while ignoring the degradation of families and the absence of fathers.
There is a game afoot. The bluetard States and the ATF want to put as many FFL's out of business as they can. The bluetard States know they can't win in court, but thats not their goal. Tied up in court for years, Many FFL's will go out of business. The ATF would then get all the records that those FFL's possess. There is only one reason why the Government would want to know who has guns. And it's not to congratulate you.
Democrats actually want crime to get much worse. High crime justifies gun banning and confiscation. Besides, criminals are more likely to vote Democrat.
They are creating a police state.. The same people taking your guns away are the same people that are forcing you into electric vehicles.. They are limiting you on what you can do so they can control you more easily.
A few good men still exist in WA and honor their oath, as well as basic logic and human rights including the right to self defense. Thank you Rep Jim Walsh!
The State Police should have rounded up every politician that voted for this infringement and throw them in jail for the violation of the 2nd amendment. But we all learned during Covid that law enforcement only follow orders, not even enforce current laws.
We can only hope. It's sad to see the turn the state has made in my lifetime. This is my home, and while I have no desire to abandon it, this absolutely unconstitutional overreach has me thinking twice.
Corey, I've lived here since birth and have had a Great life here in Eastern Washington State. Lately though I've also been thinking about moving to a "free State ". I'm going to wait for a while because I think it's better to stay and Fight for the freedoms we've had before and soon we will Prevail by restoring our voting system to protect the vote of the People who live here and regain control of our Constitutional rights and freedoms again.
These people think it's the law abiding citizens that are committing these crimes. Yet the criminals will be more brave to just shooting you in open public. Give up all the protection security details and be like us subjected to the criminals. Having a security detail is not in the constitution, so you give up your protection before telling us to give up ours.
WA STATE CONSTITUTIONAL PROVISION - Article 1, Section 24. “The right of the individual citizen to bear arms in defense of himself, or the state, shall not be impaired, but nothing in this section shall be construed as authorizing individuals or corporations to organize, maintain or employ an armed body of men.”
Well spoken argument. Too bad the current body of the legislature has no regard for the legality of new laws they pass. As long as there is no punishment for passing laws that are known to be against the constitution, ( both Washington's and the United States), these types of laws will keep getting passed, and we, the law abiding public, will have to spend millions of dollars to get them overturned, only to have the same legislators do it again.
Well spoken & understands our Constitutional rights. He also has the commen sense to know that criminals don't care about gun control... Backed by facts & statistical proof... Guns don't kill people, people kill people! Crackdown on crime, drug abuse and get the mentally ill off the streets! Jim Walsh for Governor!
Screwing you over for several years is good enough for them, they know it will get tossed and they don't care. They can hurt you free of personal consequence, which is the only real goal
First defensive action is, we buy, buy, buy: - Companies like PSA now have a "prioritizing shipments to WA" alert on their websites, so that people can place stock up orders before the gun ban becomes law. I've already placed orders with PSA and AimSurplus and they've shipped them the very next day. Washington local Aero Precision also has a promo code for WA views of the "Washington Gun Law" youtube channel. Orders are shipped and on the way. - We in WA are at least stocking up before the ban, and the years long wait for the litigation outcomes.
How many taxpayers dollars will the state spend defending this bill in court? A bill that they know, or should know, is going to be found unconstitutional. Taxpayer money that could be spent putting the worthless thugs that are committing crimes with guns in jail for a long time. That reduces crime every time it is done. Maybe they should try it!
With such a strong turn out in favor of our 2A at the hearing, and with such a strong support for the 2A in the comment section, its confounding that this bill still passed. Something isn't right- we the people arent being considered. We are not being represented effectively. They are just passing laws as our overlords no matter what we say. Something has to change.
The Right of the People shall not be INFRINGED! Infringe means to BREAK the LAW! When the Law (Government) BREAKS the LAW then there ISN'T any LAW just a FIGHT for SURVIVAL!!!
This Bill is a Direct Violation of the Lawfully Protected Rights of the People of the State, and as such, The People are NOT Obliged to comply with, nor shall be Compelled to obey with it. Further, Any attempt by the State to coerce, Compel or Persecute any Citizens whom Refuse to allow their Rights to be Violated, shall be seen as an Imminent Threat to their Security and Life, and shall be dealt with accordingly. Since Olympia Refuses to Comply with the Limitations placed upon it by the Constitution and choose to Violate the Consent of the People, the People are no longer obliged to comply with the Machinations of Olympia.
Maybe you should talk about how the Supreme Court ruled this unconstitutional and that it’s absurd to have citizens abide by the law when Washington state reps are not following federal law themselves….
If you outlaw all the guns then only outlaw will have guns. (and with the poor condition of our police departments) only outlaws will have the run of the steets.
As good as any argument can be made for the 2nd amendment. It all comes down to who you're talking to. it was just in one ear and out the other for those who voted yes. So if anything, if this does get signed into law (and it probably will), all I can do I stock up and wait for the courts to hopefully get struck down. But email your WA rep to vote no if possible.
If marijuana is illegal on the federal level, therefore technically illegal on the state level despite decriminalizing it, wouldn't that mean firearms which are legal on the federal level are still legal at the state level? State law cannot supercede federal law which cannot supercede the Constitution.
This country is facing a culture problem, not a gun problem.
Too many psychopaths...including the tyrants trying to take away and restrict Constitutional Rights...

They think banning guns will protect them from the repercussions.
They need to be in prison
Because we don't do anything about it.

I do not support this ban. Control your criminals and old them accountable, not your law-abiding citizens. And I do support the constitution.

im sure that one got knocked down because it supposedly disproportionately effects black people. Making the racist assumption that black people commit more violent crime, and they can appear to be racist.
But that might impact the violent criminals who’s lives democrats are working to “better.”
