(www.examiner.com) Washington state Sens. Ed Murray (D), Jeanne Kohl-Welles (D) and Adam Kline (D) have introduced new gun control legislation that goes far above and beyond what anyone would consider a simple sales ban.
The bill, S.B. 5737, proposes “banning the sale of assault weapons.” According to the legislation, an “assault weapon” is any semiautomatic pistol, pump-action rifle or shotgun that can accept a detachable magazine, with the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds. Any magazine that accepts over 10 rounds itself will also be banned.
Also included in the definition is any rifle or shotgun with a pistol grip, a stock of any kind, a muzzle brake or muzzle compensator. The bill also prohibits the manufacturing, possessing, purchasing, selling or transferring of an assault weapons “conversion kit.”
In order to continue to possess a so-called assault weapon that was owned before the assumed passing of the legislation, the person must “safely and securely” store the assault weapon and allow the sheriff of the county to, no more than once per year, conduct an inspection to “ensure compliance,” despite some apparent civil liberties implications related to the Fourth Amendment.

If we don’t step off the porch soon, then we’ll each be having this fight *on* our own front porch; and that’s no way to win it…

I am willing to bet that much of this legislation in all of these gun bans and limit of guns is backed by the Federal government. It seems to be this common theme among the dems to limit magazine size and get the guns out of the hands of the populous. For the Sheriff to come to the house for an inspection is to take attendance of who has what. What if he shows up in force and with DHS personell? The laws like this in Washington, Mass, New York and other states that are requiring government limits and bans are totally against the 2nd Amendment. They know it is against the 2nd Amendment but hope THEIR judges will “do the right thing” and go along with the program. Remember the judges that are appointed can be told to make the “correct” judgment, it’s a big club.
O’bama said HE wouldn’t take your guns. He never said he would stop others from taking your guns. In his back room deals he is pulling the strings on the gun removals. Beyond him there is bigger fish that tell him what to do when and how. We the People, the Patriots, the Liberty loving, Freedom possesing people have a fight ahead of us. We are the worlds last hope. We were the hope in WW1 and WW2 for the world. The politicians have been perverted and used us. Now the stand fro liberty and freedom is come to us in the USA again. Has the line been drawn? Will we take the step back? We say we fly the flag, “Come and get it”. Well my fellow citizens and Patriots, They have come. We have them right where we want them, they have surrounded us!
The ballot box in November I fear will be to late. The time is drawing closer with each day when only the outlaws will have guns. They ban what they plan on using against us. May God help us and give us the courage and will to do what is correct.
Missouri also has a severe gun grabbing bill in its legislature.
