…for “Inspection Time” visitors! It’s so awkward when the doorbell rings and things are…messy.
Washington State gun control bill calls for annual police inspection of gun owner’s home for compliance
Oh, wait! NOW they’re calling it an “oopsie”:
Misstep in gun bill could defeat the effort
One of the major gun-control efforts in Olympia this session calls for the sheriff to inspect the homes of assault-weapon owners. The bill’s backers say that was a mistake.Forget police drones flying over your house. How about police coming inside, once a year, to have a look around?
As Orwellian as that sounds, it isn’t hypothetical. The notion of police home inspections was introduced in a bill last week in Olympia.
That it’s part of one of the major gun-control efforts pains me. It seemed in recent weeks lawmakers might be headed toward some common-sense regulation of gun sales. But then last week they went too far. By mistake, they claim. But still too far.
“They always say, we’ll never go house to house to take your guns away. But then you see this, and you have to wonder.”
That’s no gun-rights absolutist talking, but Lance Palmer, a Seattle trial lawyer and self-described liberal who brought the troubling Senate Bill 5737 to my attention. It’s the long-awaited assault-weapons ban, introduced last week by three Seattle Democrats.
…“In order to continue to possess an assault weapon that was legally possessed on the effective date of this section, the person possessing shall … safely and securely store the assault weapon. The sheriff of the county may, no more than once per year, conduct an inspection to ensure compliance with this subsection.”
In other words, come into homes without a warrant to poke around. Failure to comply could get you up to a year in jail.
Come ON! “Mistake” my ass.

HAW! My Man Cave™ is open for all to see (by appointment, and with a posted bond), and if they don’t like it, they can run screaming into the night!
On a serious note…..the lefties in Olympia have been working overtime to stomp on common sense as well as the Constitution.
There’s a universal background check (HB1588), a defacto gun owners registry and ban on private gun sales, plus a “safety” law (HB 1703) that includes a tax on firearms, ammunition, and reloading supplies to pay for a perpetual study and education program hosted by the Department of Health. And others that pretty much mirror what President Zero, Sheriff Joe, and their flying monkeys all want.
On the other hand, there are pro-gun bills included as well. But there are ,a href=”http://apps.leg.wa.gov/billsbytopic/Results.aspx?subject=FIREARMS&year=2013″>over thirty firearm related bills on the docket. Thank God the bill submission period ends next week.
SB 5737 ain’t the only “Oopsie!” moment in Olympia, but it’s by far the most blatant, in-your-face moment by the gun grabbers.
I’ve been in constant contact with friends and local groups, and my state delegation as well. All three of the delegation are officially Republican, but one is in fact the very definition of RINO, and a condescending wanker to boot. She actually is co-sponsoring the universal background check, and has heard much displeasure from her constituents. Including me. She’s also supporting a bill to keep gun ranges from being sued for noise issues, which she touts as being proof of her pro-Second Amendment credentials. Which very few are buying.
The gun grabbers are on the march.
