It’s appalling that big-box stores and outdoor retailers are imposing more stringent rules on gun sales than Washington’s Democratic-controlled state Legislature. But that is exactly what is happening as state lawmakers tiptoe away from minimal gun-control measures in the final days of their 60-day session in Olympia. Since the Feb. 14 school shooting that claimed 17 lives in Parkland, Florida, Walmart has announced it will no longer sell guns to anyone under 21. Kroger, L.L. Bean and Dick’s Sporting Goods have done the same. |

Memo to dimwitted editor:
The Constitution doesn't bind Walmart, but it DOES bind federal and state government.
Idiot. |

A lawsuit in Oregon, and now another one in Michigan.
It is oddf that these companies' lawyers did not research to see which states banned age discrimination in businesses open to the public. There are at least 17, which opens these stores to lawsuits in all of them. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of a citizen to bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the State government. It is one of the high powers" delegated directly to the citizen, and `is excepted out of the general powers of government.' A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it, because it is above the law, and independent of the lawmaking power." [Cockrum v. State, 24 Tex. 394, at 401-402 (1859)] |
