We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :)
Please help by posting all issues here.
The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.
Seen a lot of OC here in N Idaho (Kootenai County) since moving here last year. Done it also but the cold weather puts a bit of a damper on it. Never had a bad interaction and no one seems to care.
To channel the demon Psaki and "circle back" the Seattle Slimes did a follow up puff piece to try and justify the "good" this law has supposedly done while violating the 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 14th Amendments of the Federal constitution (not to mention myriad parts of the state constitution). In...
While the ignorant chief is possibly referencing the unpublished state v Casad decision (time, place, manner = 'unlawful') and implying that even though it isn't precedent a court could go that way again), the chief is definitely wrong about his statements on WA law and citizens stopping...
This was reintroduced for 2020 a few days ago, hat tip to the Goal Post.
This bill would outlaw both open carry and concealed carry at the state capitol and associated grounds/buildings.

The gun banners are marching to MI on June 9th. Under state law they cannot stop us from peaceably assembling at their finish line on the lid park on Mercer Island.

So you all have probably seen the news about AGR dropping their "assault weapon" initiative. They need to get about 260k signatures before July 6.
The initiative does many horrible things.
Here's AGR's own executive summary:
Here's the actual text...
They weren't OCing, they were full-on brandishing in violation of .270 and the feckless WSP refused to do their job and arrest them, prompting the idiotic legislature to ban OC in the galleries and hearing rooms.
If WSP had done their jobs and arrested these brandishers, we'd still have...
The problem was that the amendment technically restricted open carry when it comes to self-defense temporary transfers if the transferee does not have a CPL, which many open carriers do not.
UPDATE: I got in contact with an associate who works with the Representative and they told me this was...

Hey everyone, looks like MDA is meeting in Cal Anderson park tomorrow at 3pm to rally in favor of their latest anti-civil rights measure, I-1491 which unconstitutionally denies due process to citizens based on un-substantiated rumors from former roommates...
Proving yet again that OC is a buffer that keeps CC legal after the state legislature banned OC from the galleries they are now going after ALL guns except for their hired muscle.

When idiots tell you that OC is dangerous remind them with cases like these that criminals don't open carry because police would recognize them.
Most violent crime is committed...
You all remember RINO Dan Satterberg right? The guy who pushed 594 and claimed he needed it to prosecute criminals but then promptly turns around and drops charges and cuts deals on firearm charges even for notorious and infamous serial killers. If you don't remember this will jog your memory...
Well, looks like we may be off the hook on the "AWB" or preemption repeal, however EPOs are pretty dangerous given their obvious unconstitutionality and despicable nature in creating a new standard of "guilty until proven innocent."
I doubt the final draft will contain strict or maybe even ANY...
