    I've had plans to move in the next two years into a house. I'm moving to Idaho if I-1639 passes. Which it will, thanks to dumbasses up in Puget Sound.

    Hope I still get a Blazer's broadcast out there....:smiley-drzifige:

    Can you tell me what particular part of I-1639 passing would motivate such an action? The initiative seemed reasonable to me, a non gun owner albeit

    The entire thing. I don't have the bill in front of me at the moment, nor am I up for a long debate for it at the moment, but I've read and studied it, and much of it is questionable from a legal standpoint. It's not going to do anything other than be a massive burden to law-abiding, safe gun owners, and has the strong potential to turn many of them into criminals. It will NOT make us safe as a community or State. It's reactionary legislation to make Democrat politicians feel good about themselves, nothing more. And if they took the time to study firearms, firearm ownership, or talk to many in the firearms community, they would see this. But they won't, because they don't care.

    Maybe I'm simplifying it, and I'm not looking for an extended debate, but the basics are below. Seemed pretty reasonable to me. The only part I don't fully understand, being that I'm not a gun owner or advocate, was the "storage requirements."

    A yes vote supports the ballot initiative to implement restrictions on the purchase and ownership of firearms including raising the minimum age to purchase a gun to 21, background checks, waiting periods, and storage requirements.

    A no vote opposes the ballot initiative to implement restrictions on the purchase and ownership of firearms including raising the minimum age to purchase a gun to 21, background checks, waiting periods, and storage requirements.

    You ARE simplifying it. My advice would be to go read the bill in its entirety. It's not as simple as gun control supporters are making it out to be.

    Here's a good place to start:

    https://ballotpedia.org/Washington_...ship_and_Purchase_Requirements_Measure_(2018)

    Keep an eye on who's funding the proposal. That should tell you all you need to know.

    You want an out-of-touch billionaire from some distant state funding a campaign against your Constitutional Rights?

    Okay then.
