Wow! The only thing missing is a meme!
The SIG P320 requires too much training and safety knowledge for the average civilian cop to use. Other non cop civilians though? I'm sure most will be fine.
In 15 years we'll be able to use hardware keys lol
Making your own firearms has always been legal in America. And it's not exactly easy. Even 3D printed guns take a lot of work.
Flock, which has license plate readers (LPRs) all around the country, wants police to be able to “jump from LPR to person,” according to leaked audio obtained by 404 Media.
Lawmakers in 2022 banned the sale of ammo magazines holding more than 10 bullets in an effort to thwart deadly mass shootings. However, a gun store in Kelso continued to sell the clips and drew a fine from the Washington State Attorney General in July 2023.
I'm genuinely surprised Democrats were upset about the lack of a grandfather clause. I would have expected them to be happy about that, especially since that "spirit of Aloha" nonsense the state supreme court pulled.
Hawaii state Democrats voted against a gun control measure which would ban assault rifles from the state.

EO to use the military alongside law enforcement
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered:Section 1. Purpose and
The bill is obviously unconstitutional and has no chance of passing in a Republican Congress. So of course it's a good idea
(The Center Square) – U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Arizona, has introduced legislation he says will save lives and protect communities from gun violence while protecting Americans’ constitutional right to own a firearm. Gun rights groups said the legislative proposal is clearly unconstitutional. The GOSA...
The measure would require Washingtonians to get a permit before buying firearms.
New ccw $50 + whatever your county charges. Total is usually over $100. That's just to apply. You also have to pay for a class, which is usually around $200. Total for new ccw: about $300
Total for renewal: about $250
License for modern gun: unknown so far.
Regardless, this still gonna put the cost of lawful gun ownership out of reach for quite a few people. And for clarity's sake, those people tend to not be white.
You're not allowed to take the class unless you get the permit first. Your county sheriff can deny your permit for any reason they deem fit. And you still have to pay a nonrefundable application fee for the permit. All this law does is make lawful gun ownership more expensive than illegal gun ownership. How will that prevent crime? It sounds more like a great way to keep modern firearms out of a particular population that is historically on the lower end of socioeconomic class Kinda like how you had to pay a tax to vote. A tax that was a little too expensive for people of a certain socioeconomic class.
You can still get them if you have the finances to take a couple days off work, are white enough for your county sheriff, and can pay for a permit that allows you to take a safety class that you also pay for.
How does requiring a permit to take a class to apply for a modern gun (who's system must be funded by an already underfunded wildlife agency) going to stop someone from stealing a gun? How does it prevent someone from walking into a movie theater and shooting up the place? How does banning the guns least likely to be used in crime, prevent crime?
Sheriffs will have broad authority to deny applications from people seeking to buy otherwise banned firearms, including those they believe may be a risk to themselves or others. Those who are rejected, however, could file a lawsuit seeking to reverse the decision.
Once someone gets an eligibility card, they must complete up to a dozen hours of training over two days, depending on whether they have already completed a hunter education course, and pass a test. At that point they would be allowed to purchase a weapon otherwise banned under Senate Bill 3.
Trump is a fascist!
Resist!
Also, don't you dare fight back. Only Trump and his goons should own a gun.

US Supreme Court turns away challenge to New York state gun limits
The law is named after Army veteran Houston Tumlin and Marine veteran Hunter Whitley who both lost their lives to suicide.
They hope someone will else do it for them.

I'll do that on my Linux machine if I have to do a lot of admin stuff. Otherwise I just stick to sudo.
What do you do with admin access on your gaming PC?
Do you have a separate admin account, or let your "main" account have admin rights? Do you require entering a password/PIN to install software? Just curious about where people fall on the security-convenience spectrum.
Yeah they seem hellbent on fucking over veterans. Just doesn't make sense to do that to a group of people that recently quit war.
I believe that particular tax has been ruled constitutional in federal court. That money can only be spent on conservation. The government can't even take money out of it to fund other things, conservation only. Every wildlife/conservation agency gets funded by it. Because of that, a lot of people give it a pass right or wrong
Fuck me. I knew this was going to happen but still. Guess I'm not upgrading my 2060 Super for a while
