And understand that this is not the end of the fight. They will keep pushing incremental gun control. Now we must turn our attention to:
1. The court case to overturn 594 2. A replacement bill for 591 3. Fighting the next legislation in the pipeline. You know as well as I do, it's already in the chute. Get involved. Get informed. Attend the rallies. Educate your friends and family. We really miss the boat where the fudds are concerned. Take, for instance, my neighbor. He's a retired cop, hunter, and opposes these gun control measures without fail. But he doesn't do "social media". He doesn't have facebook, arfcom, or the interwebs. We have to engage guys like him face-to-face, with flyers put up at local shops and ranges, whatever it takes. |

All it says is my ballot was recieved, nothing about counted. Me too. Yep I had my ballot in the first week of the election. Shows the same. This is probably the most I've ever been involved in any election, signs on my vehicles, lawn, financial donations to all the organizations, appeals to friends and Facebook, and we got killed, but I'm not done making noise. And I will not comply. The pamphlets were one of the biggest killers IMHO, the piece of paper that actually goes to all the people that will never see our arguments and our against statement was a joke. We need to fund the right organizations and maybe they need some of the "consultants" the lefties have learned to use. But alright tweak I'll leave a message. And your goddamn right I'll be at the Gav event in Olympia, wouldn't be the first time I've been down there with signs for gun rights. |

Actually, considering past WA elections and several counts of locations with "calibration issues" in this election all over the country, I have to suspend my disbelief to accept there was none.

I am sure I will get blasted here just like I was on the facebook discussion. Where funny enough I was called a fucking sunshine patriot, My issue is that people are going to this rally open carrying long guns, and hand guns. I have no issue with either any other day of the week at any other function. But the press is going to be there looking for anything to make gun owners look bad. I do not want to be made look like a gun toting wacko. This is exactly what they want us to do, they want to portray us as the far right fringe out of touch with reality. Why add fuel to the fire? Go down to the capital with signs, dressed very nicely, and look like upstanding pillars of the community. In all honesty that's what we are, we care more about our rights and our community than most others and all others on the left do.
Let the bashing begin, but if people are going to go down there looking for a fight, then count me out. There is a right way and a wrong way to do things. Why not try to do things clean by taking the high road and looking better? If that doesn't work, then bets are off and look as loony as you want. We want to fight 594, why muddy the waters with other issues? I just don't get it, there is a time and a place for everything, lets not confuse matters. If I am wrong please explain to me how my thinking is wrong. Or just call me a sunshine patriot and leave it at that. But know I love my rights just as much as everyone else on this board does. |

That phrase, "sunshine patriot", that's someone trying to guilt/bait you into doing something or acting a certain way . I was on the fence weather or not I was going to go to this. After doing a brief search on the internet, I'm going to go with no. Do a quick Google search on Gavin Seim. Spend a little time,watch some videos, read some articles then ask your self, Is this the guy I want to represent me. Am i willing to get shot following this guy. For me the answer is no. Blatant violation of the law with some issues on permits added to that while being heavily armed while in the company of a guy that likes to stir up shit. No thank you! What he is trying to create here is a confrontation. Any time I bring a weapon to a confrontation, I fully intend to use it. We are nowhere near that kind of action needing to be taken. Not even a million light years near that point yet. So i'm leaning on not going. although curiosity my get the best of me. If I do go, I will be unarmed |

I could not agree more, I have already looked into this character and watched his you tube stuff. He is a moron at best, but a dangerous one. If I go, I will be armed, but CW just like every other day of the year. I really was looking forward to having my voice heard, but I will not do it in this fashion. Gavin Seim was one of those that jumped my ass on face book for even saying anything about them carrying open to this function. It's a recipe for disaster and as gun owners something we cannot afford to have right now. I encourage everyone to go to FB and look at the postings on this https://www.facebook.com/events/788109621237033/, Leaving them cold unless someone wants them hot. This could turn into a bad deal really fast, and it would be the best day liberals in this state ever had. If you do go just watch your six, there are going to be some emotional people there. |

I'll go; wearing the same boots and carhartt that I do every other day. The thought that we as gun owners need to dress up in slacks and ties to somehow whitewash the opinion of us as upstanding members of society is bullshit. Last time I looked around this issue affects all of us. White collar, blue collar, rich, poor, straight-laced, and fringe. Everyone is a part of this. It's a numbers game here; unless you have an extra ten million dollars to buy the election back.

Sure, there's always going to be a few crazier types in a crowd, but they're way outnumbered if good people show up. Sitting at home isn't going to do any good at all, especially if you're the type we need representing ourselves. If we all sit at home, this whole thing will fade away, and we'll all be panicking next election cycle when something worse comes up and this one is still on the books. Now is the time to show up, and let them see who we are. |
