Washington State Firearm Ban Misses The Target

[WEE]

Our elected representatives in Olympia are near passing one of the strictest firearm bans in our country. If the goal is to reduce needless deaths, they certainly miss the a bigger target.

Leftists are incapable of comprehending logic.

Fortunately for them their goal was not to reduce needless deaths.

They comprehend just fine. Gun control is not about guns, it is about control. Drugs have been used for centuries to "control" populations, in that respect they are far more successful than gun issues on their scale. If you think they give a crap about the number of deaths, you may as well be on the dope, too.

What made you think it was about saving lives; that garbage was just for their sheep followers, cuz guns are baaaaaaad.

 

[AshWilliams]

Or this. Just food for thought.

It's too bad more manufacturers don't follow what barret arms did. In the states that are trying to take guns from civilians, they refuse to repair, sell, or maintain any and all firearms that are for law enforcement. These laws always have a exception to law enforcement. Well what happens when they can't get guns for their security, or city cops? I believe manufacturers are helping to aid in the overall goal of confiscation. Guaranteed when they finally come to take what we already have. The people knocking at your door will have a firearm. Why, because manufacturers care more about their profit and bottom line than the 2nd amendment. Sidenote: it blows my mind that the politicians wanting to take guns are also pro abortion. Look up the numbers on abortion vs mass shootings. How can they sleep at night.

They don't care if you are on drugs. They care if you can effectively resist being told to get in the boxcar.

There are NO Gun laws passed with the idea of doing anything to slow down crime. The people who push these laws ALWAYS also make every excuse possible to let criminals go free.

This. Gun laws are aimed at restricting the freedom of the law abiding, not reducing crime. The left LOVES the criminal class, because the criminal class votes left.

Yes no doubt some of the scum vote but that is not where they tend to be useful. Where they really shine if making victims. Make more victims and better yet spread more fear. Then here comes the same people who tell you not to own a gun to tell you they are here to help. Just give them more of your money. Of course it has an unintended consequence often. Many go out and buy a gun. It has also been great to watch the same party who wants no guns screaming they want no Cops. That one worked out great for them too. So now they do what they do best, lie. Tell the people screaming where are the cops that the other party took them away.
