Today the Oregon Secretary of State announced that proposed ballot measure 44 had the required number of signatures (1000) to move on to the Attorney General for a draft ballot title.

This measure would hold you liable for any damage or injuries that happened with a firearm that you transferred, for 5 years after it was no longer yours unless you could prove it was transferred with a lock. There are many other absurd provisions too numerous to detail.

As with IP 43, the AG will create a proposed title and Oregon voters will be given an opportunity to comment on the proposed ballot title language.

After that anyone who provided a comment will have standing to challenge the ballot title in the Oregon Supreme Court.

The AG must provide the proposed title by May 1. We will post more info as this progresses.

US Supreme Court ruled against the District of Columbia on this issues finding their law unconstitutional; if my memory is correct.

I just checked. It was the Heller Decision ruling 5:4 against the DC that required trigger locks were unconstitutional. San Francisco tried this as well and was ruled against; that is that SF has not more right than DC; which was unconstitutional. Let's see what the State of Oregon does in this area.

Yup, but this is Oregon and our state legislators are a special kind of stupid.

Only in Oregon will you get initiatives that are clearly unconstitutional... Guess all that weed has killed the last remaining brain cells.... Sigh....
 
It's the "blue wall" of the left Coast that the progressives are so in love with. I'm hoping that Cali will secede, then all of the proggie @sswipes will flock to their new utopia.
