More kids die from poisons, swimming pools, and drugs and alcohol yet where are the laws requiring those things locked up? Preaching to the choir, I know, but any opportunity to expose the gun hating socialists...
If I didnt have such deep roots here I would love to move 30 miles east over the border into freedom.

The 9th Circus has surprised a few times lately.
The thing is, this POS has been a soup sandwich form day one. They violated the law regarding initiatives multiple times in multiple ways, judges ordered it tossed, and then it was put back on by the state AG because "Well, it turns out there is no basis in the law as written to actually cancel an initiative just because it broke the law..."

And even with all of that, it’s going to pass. I am glad I don’t work elections in WA anymore.
Well, shit.

Here's hoping for a successful court challenge.
Interestingly, there's no operational reason why the word "assault" needs to be included in this definition or anywhere else in the initiative, as there is no distinction between a semi-auto rifle and a semi-auto "assault" rifle. Except that without the scary word, it might not have passed. Pure scaremongering at its finest worst:
(25) "Semiautomatic assault rifle" means any rifle which
utilizes a portion of the energy of a firing cartridge to extract
the fired cartridge case and chamber the next round, and which
requires a separate pull of the trigger to fire each cartridge.
"Semiautomatic assault rifle" does not include antique firearms,
any firearm that has been made permanently inoperable, or any
firearm that is manually operated by bolt, pump, lever, or slide
action.

I'm trying to understand the specifics of implementation - any good sources
Yeah... I’m not so sure that’s been entirely thought out.
I mean, according to the strict letter of the law, a guy like Matt Graham or Greg Hamilton needs to take child safety and suicide prevention training from an as-yet unspecified certified source (e.g. future NRA-certified unicorn/bunny instructor) to keep the guns they used to keep the country safe on the job back in the day—and tools that they have taught themselves for 200+ days a year for decades.
But, I dunno... again, IANAL.

In other news, Marty Hayes just announced that FAS will be changing their name to "FAS: Feelz Academy of Seattle...”

So does this law take effect immediately? I can't decide whether to rush purchase a lower or wait a couple weeks to see how the deals shake out for Black Friday.
