Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson has revealed plans to revive his gun control agenda for the 2018 legislative session, and he is once again declaring his push to ban so-called “assault rifles” a matter of “public safety,” according to the Aberdeen Daily World.
But the FBI Uniform Crime Reports over the past several years essentially derail that argument, because in Washington, and across the nation, rifles of any kind account for a small fraction of all homicides. |

Citizens of Washington:
Ask yourselves: What activities does the AG contemplate that require a disarmed citizenry? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
