It will be interesting. Grab your popcorn, sit back and be patient. This one is going to take a while.

Front row seats available?

Any chance you can tell us the Spokane Retailer's name? I need to buy gun-related Christmas presents and would love to support anybody supporting us.

And thanks for putting yourself in the line of fire for the greater good!

You bet,. somebody had to take a stand. Robin @ Sharpshooter Range in Spokane is the other listed "retailer"

I would imagine that the first move would be an application for an injunction to prevent its implementation.

There are laws against malicious prosecution. What about malicious legislation? I think a preponderance of the evidence would show that their intent is solely against the law-abiding. Would love to see Bloomberg doing the perp walk.

Awesome! Thanks brother.

I bought 2 suppressors from them a few years back. Time to vote with my feet (and cash) and head there again.

Well, this is an encouraging piece of news. Happy I can contribute some $$$ [already have] to SAF and the NRA. Hoping for the best. IMHO this anti-2A gun control bubblegum needs to be stopped cold.

^^YES.

Silly, you don't understand.. It's all for our...safety 'n stuff. Get with the program.

You had better have a lot of popcorn to watch this one all the way through. SCOTUS doesn't seem to be eager to take on 2A cases lately. Hopefully that changes as the bench is further restored with non-activist judges.

Let's face it: Judges of all stripes engage in activism when it suits them, and they rail against it when it suits them.

I routinely travel to Seattle for medical appointments. I've seen the "safety" and "security" that socialist progressivism provides. My medical facility is a gun and knife-free zone - where they perform surgery with, you guessed it, knives.

Naturally, I carry both gun and knife.

Send this to everyone, then tell them to donate a dollar to the NRA

Thanks, I updated the top post with the link.

Speaking of the lawsuit. Perhaps I've missed it.....so, why was there no mention of:

the cost to citizens (BGC, training, medical records proof, etc...) to exercise a RIGHT?

the required re-qualification for a BGC every year?

the required formal training issue?

the State's need to examine private medical records? Did the law even mention a "standard" for disqualification?

the need for a waiting period when I already own several other firearms?

Ok, Ok, ok.....I have other concerns too. But, it's a start.

Infringement is infringement. So then, requiring me to pay money and jump through hoops to exercise a RIGHT is in my opinion "unreasonable". If these same restrictions were applied to voting.....I'd bet, that the SCOTUS would say that the restrictions were UNREASONABLE.

If you read the press release from SAF you will see that this lawsuit is just the SAF's opening shot. They will peel back this thing like layers of an onion, but they have to do it in a very methodical manner that gives them the greatest odds of success.

I joined SAF and donated some money.

Some are worse than others.

I'll bet that caravan of Hondurans is already registered to vote...

I talked to Dave Workman at the WAC show yesterday and he told me the same news. By the way If you are at the WAC shows. Stop by Dave's table and drop a few dollares in his jar for the cause.

This might be inconvenient for the pro 1639 folks;
Article XIV (Amendment 14 - Rights Guaranteed: Privileges and Immunities of Citizenship, Due Process, and Equal Protection)
1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

I was there yesterday and half of my spending money for the show went into that can, but at least I did pick up one part that I needed.
