    The left never rests...

    Democrats in the Washington state House on Saturday approved an overhaul of the state’s system for buying guns.

    Under the legislation, prospective gun buyers would need to first apply for a five-year permit from the Washington State Patrol. To get the permit, applicants must have completed a certified firearms safety training program within the past five years, with exceptions for police officers and active military service members.

    If the applicant has completed the safety course, the state would have to issue the permit unless the person is barred from having guns, out of custody on bond awaiting trial or sentencing on felony charges, or the subject of an arrest warrant.
    What that tells you is the members of the legislature don't write their own bills or amendments. They get them from special interest groups who are the puppeteers behind the scenes. I wonder how it feels to have some person from Everytown or Mom's Demand Action's hand firmly up your ass and moving you around like a puppet.
    “Every good citizen makes his country's honor his own, and cherishes it not only as precious but as sacred. He is willing to risk his life in its defense and is conscious that he gains protection while he gives it.” Andrew Jackson

    A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'

    That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.

    Honestly, this has always been the case, legislators are never the ones that write the bills they introduce.
