An Anti "Journalist" compiles an election list and misses the two biggest races that should be on it.
If You Care About Gun Violence, Here's What to Watch on Election Day.
Of course the moron leads with the Washington state fight, but misses the two most pivotal races far more important than that: the Hickenlooper and Malloy re-elections. If both are defeated it won't matter what else happens -- their political destruction will be laid at the foot of firearm registration and confiscation. What good will a win in Washington state do them if the Democrat politicians figure out that not even Bloomberg's millions of astroturf can save them? As for Washington, if they win then the Connecticut/New York model of resistance will kick in. Pass whatever state law they want, we will resist. Somebody ought to send this twit a tweet and tell him that.

I live in Washington State and we are actually two different States . King County and Seattle are hyper liberal and the rest of the State is not . So Bloomy and Billy Gates spend all their money in the King County media market to get a hard yes from the Liberals and not caring a hoot about the hard no from the rest of the State . Most law enforcement wants nothing to do with I-594 because the wet work of prying firearms from citizens hands will fall on them. Right now I-591 is polling ahead of -594 but whatever wins the compliance rate will be negligible.
On a related note I have been to Billy Gates mansion in Medina , King County . It's built like a medieval fortress 2/3rds below ground surrounded by water on two sides and plenty of automatic firearms . This is just another grab for power to keep the great unwashed from getting out of line.
Maybe we should thank Bloomy. He will give a lot of Washingtonians much needed practice in flouting the law.
I would suggest a re-reading of proposed new Section 2 in I-591.
By popular vote by the citizens of the state of WA, abdicating the 10th Amendment (our retained reserved power to nullify unconstitutional federal law) is forfeit by the language in Sec 2 of I-591. It indeed does present that precedent. By stating the tenth amendment doesn't apply and is not a valid argument is irrelevant. It WILL come back to what the liberal WA State Supreme Court says it is. I have absolutely no trust in their future ruling(s).
There is hubris in ignoring the existence of I-591 that merely only re-affirms what is already covered in WA State's constitution and other existing law. Our focus should be on defeating I-594, just like we did with HB-1588 that we defeated with nothing more than the righteous fight. Unfortunately, matters have been complicated. IF both pass, they do not cancel each other out as some hope they will. What WILL happen, is that regardless of what arguments are made, the decision about what the people "Want" WILL rest in the hands of our State's Supreme liberal filled ideological courts.
We have seen the enemy, and it is ourselves.
Once again, a national standard does not require that its genesis come from our government. Fact 1: the UN small arms treaty has been signed. Fact 2: Treaties do NOT have a death date. Fact 3: The treaty has not been voted on by the Senate YET. Fact 4: ANY Senate, either today or one 2 years from now (when they know they have the votes to pass it), can vote to ratify this treaty, making it the uniform national standard.
When we have form 4473, and most think it is okay or at the very least comply with it, the 2nd Amendment is no longer a national standard that is not infringed upon. The form 4473 is not in the Constitution and is an affront to what shall not be infringed upon, but merely a agency regulation. A regulation that is required by Washington Arms Collectors for membership. A regulation that has only resulted in ~13 actual convictions of it's violation.
As the examples above, one can see that the merits and down falls of I-591 are NOT set in stone. All is opinion, but the most important opinion will be that which DOES come from our WA State Supreme Court, AND I argue that their finding opinion will NOT be in our favor now, in regard to THIS specific issue, NOR any in the future when cross dressers in black robes rule from upon high in regards to what rights are ours, or not, but privileges. It IS something that all those concerned must be made aware of. ALL here on THIS page already know that I-594 must be defeated. AG told me that regardless of my opinion, he has every right to present whatever Initiative he wanted, and he is correct. To that idea, I leave all with: I do not consent. and :
NAS: I Corinthians 8:9- But take care that this liberty of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.
The uniform national standard, known as the 2nd Amendment is what ANY applying state had to agree to in order to gain admission into the Union. THAT is an example of what the Supremacy Clause was intended for, as supreme, (as opposed to more contemporary examples that are not supreme). Again, I-591 does NOT explicitly state that the uniform national standard IS the 2nd Amendment, and to imply that it does is in of itself misleading. It is NOT defined in Sec. 2. The authors themselves, again I say, require that 4473 background checks be made for admission to their private gun club. THAT IS the uniform national standard that is clear that they believe is the exception to the 2nd Amendment.
State sovereignty as reserved in the 10th Amendment is abdicated by the language in Sec. 2, BECAUSE it does NOT define that a uniform national standard is the 2nd Amendment, and is a very dangerous precedent.
YES I-594 is bad. Unfortunately I-591 is Pandora's box. YMMV
