Would I-735 prevent Bloomberg from buying gun control in WA?

[91_Octane]

If you look at how much money Bloomberg has spent on gun control in WA and other states, it's a lot more money than the NRA and other pro-gun groups have managed to raise in opposition. At this rate, we're easily going to end up losing a ton of ground very quickly unless something big changes.

If we pass I-735 here in WA, does anybody know whether that would prevent Bloomberg from being able to buy politicians and fund anti-gun initiatives in this state?

Thanks in advance

I understand that Bloomberg didn't even bother trying to pass any of his c rap in my state of Arizona, due to a local law against confusing wordage. Here in Arizona we have the AZ CDL, which is an organization pledged to fight gun control--They have been very successful in keeping anti-gun laws away from the people.

Fighting scum who try to make things confusing is easy when you have a law against trying to confuse people with an intentionally poorly worded law on the books--It makes such good sense that even democrats are ill-equipped to argue against such a law

Bill, can you come up with a statute citation? THAT's one we need to ram through by initiative...

I-735 really doesn't require anything be done. Even if it happened, it still allows individuals (Bloomberg is an individual) to dump money wherever they want.

And I checked out its background... most of its endorsers are a Who's Who of our enemies.

This is another King Kounty Kon Job, plain and simple... their main targets NRA-ILA and the SAF/CCRKBA/etc. network.

I emailed the treasurer, we'll see if he knows

Don't fall for it, as @Diamondback said it's sponsored by our enemies. You know it's bad when it's supported by nothing but democrats, progressives, groups like moveon and unions.

The Arizona Citizens Defebse League says there is no law in AZ that will stop Bloomberg, and that they fully expect Bloomberg to return by 2018 and try this same c rap then

Prevent? HA, HA, HA!
When you shut a door on graft money it will just ooze in like a festered wound from another direction with honest citizens ending up as collateral damage from some obscure portion of the law passed.
But hey, maybe I'm wrong, this time.

Cash is fungible. If you block an out-of-state person or org, they'll just establish an in-state affiliate and fund that.

Sorta like how when you tell somebody "You can't do X with my donation" they'll just shuffle your money into everything but X and reallocate the same amount from other sources to X. See also #PPSellsBabyParts for example...
