Predictably, the anti-gun majority of Washington State’s King County Council voted Monday to adopt a new “safe storage” requirement for gun owners, likely in violation of the state’s 35-year-old preemption statute, but some pro-rights activists in the firearms community are quietly wondering if this isn’t a signal that the preemption law could be in jeopardy if Democrats take stronger control of the Legislature in 2019. |

| It's also in violation of SCOTUS precedent. D.C. v. Heller (and its subsequent application to the states and their subdivisions in McDonald v. Chicago) specifically ruled that mandating that guns in the home be kept locked up and unloaded (or otherwise disabled) facially violates the core Second Amendment right of self-defense. |

For those that continually seek to undermine our Constitutional form of government.
