Not only have a majority of Washington State’s county sheriffs publicly announced they will not enforce provisions of the voter-approved gun control Initiative 1639, a second county commission passed a resolution opposing the measure while one major state daily newspaper has chastised the lawmen for their stances.
The Stevens County Commission unanimously resolved this week to oppose I-1639. According to KXLY News, Commissioner Steve Parker said the initiative “is dangerous and damaging to citizens, law-abiding citizens.” |

| This just seems criminal somehow. Attempting to deprive law abiding citizens of their rights again, and again, and again, over, and over, and over. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
