HB 1705 adds restrictions to the centuries-old practice of manufacturing firearms for personal use
and self-defense by imposing requirements that far exceed those in
federal law. It seeks to prohibit private individuals from possessing
certain unregulated components commonly used by hobbyists to make their
own firearms, as well as possessing currently legal firearms that may not
have serial numbers -- many older .22 rimfire rifles also fall into this category.
The bill has passed the House and is in Law and Justice Committee in the Senate. Let's make the bill die in committee.

The innocent public should not be trampled on. If the legislature really cared about public safety they would make criminals pay for their crimes rather than setting them free.

Effing the ineffable - Washington State elections sometimes have been rigged.
“It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.”
