So, a new tax to create a new program to make sure you lose your weapons.

And don't forget,

"4 b Funding for victim advocates embedded in county clerks' offices to assist petitioners with filing protection orders;​

4 j Funding for victim advocates embedded in law enforcement agencies and prosecutor's offices;"​

So Jane/John Doe advocate gets paid to help get you hung out to dry? Yup, sure sounds like a solid plan to me. What could possibly go wrong with a gun/man/woman hating advocate helping shove something up your backside...

With the courts letting the criminals go free faster than a speeding bullet, this new tax and newly created whatever the hell this bill is, will surely fix gender-based violence.

Same old crap every legislative session, they throw as much bubblegum against the granite walls to see what sticks.

What is "gender-based violence" ? and doesn't domestic violence offenders already lose their gun rights?

This legislative session has become a nightmare -- it's already -- and it's early -- far worse than I feared it would be.

The morons in the statehouse have become so emboldened, they have thrown out the playbook and are now just sitting around, smoking their legal weed (and a bit of crack, apparently, as well) while dreaming up the most incredible, outrageous scenarios for disarming the populace of this state.

It's as though they believe there's not a bill they can't write that wouldn't get passed, no matter how convoluted and unconstitutional -- and they'd be correct.

It would be hilarious if it all weren't so tragic. It's like a Cheech and Chong movie, almost...

Punishment for violent gender benders? They sure do shoot em' up on occasion.

I guess even in WA some things are too dumb to live.
