As millionaires and billionaires continue to push universal background checks and handgun registration in Washington state, their donations for Initiative 594 (I-594) have reached "nearly $9.5 million."

Apparently these assclowns fail to understand how much good this money could do rather than trampling on our rights. I so hope I-594 fails. Heads up NV. If the anti's get the signatures required to get the IBGC placed on the '16 ballot, they'll be pumping plenty of $$$$ in to the state to try to push it through.

seize that money and put it to better use

—and they must already helping a couple of the Dems in the state races—”common sense background checks” is in the ads-—

What part of Will not be infringed upon do these assholes not understand.

Liberalism is a mental disorder!

One-Percenters with armed guards.

From what I am hearing the gun control freaks are going to lose big on this.

I’m hopin’ for some change. Biggest problem is the oh so progressive, we’re smarter than everybody, attitude in the Seattle area. Big voting block. But then again, turnout is supposed to be pretty dismal everywhere for the mid-terms. We’re turning out.

Two “NO” votes were dropped off yesterday at the county clerk’s office from this household. We received two mailers yesterday against it, but have not seen any anti 594 commercials on TV. There have been plenty of bloomberg sponsored fearmongering ads on the tube, though. If it passes, I may have to move back to Alaska.

The “One-Percenters” I know of ride Harleys and are very much against any kind of “control”, especially that involving firearms.

The “One-Percenters” referenced in this story don’t have to dirty their on hands with self-protection, having access to plenty of personal bodyguards.

[rktman]

Based on the amount of money they can afford to throw away, sounds more like they are the 0.1%r’s. And yes, I know about the 1%r’s you’re referencing. :>}

Hopefully this will be $9.5 million “shot to Hell”.

An easy response to this would be the slogan, “Why do billionaires want to take away our guns?”
