Yes, loose living could very well turn one into a Bill Clinton. Ugh! Nasty...
You can get a concealed weapons permit in Washington State. I don't know about out of state visitors, but I am sure you can find out.
Washington has reciprocity with some states for CWP. Idaho I think, but not Oregon (dunno why). Some other states.
Actually the state has pretty easy-going concealed carry rules. Also we have I believe the "don't back down rule" or whatever it is that you can pull a gun to protect yourself (rather than trying to run away first).
Couple of links:
http://www.metrokc.gov/sheriff/services/gun_permits/
and according to:
http://www.atg.wa.gov/firearms/
the list of states with reciprocity is:
North Carolina
Mississippi
Ohio
Oklahoma
Louisiana
Utah
Michigan
I guess I was wrong about Idaho.
There are many suburbs.
Get a permit. You might get it before you leave town. I got min in about twelve days as I recall.
No, it was a deranged neighbor.
Washington, for all its liberal wackyness, is a *shall-issue* state. That is, the state is required to issue a permit unless they can show a reason why they cannot.
We cling wearily to the last bits of freedom out here... :-)
I got an idea - - let's ban normal, law-abiding citizens from having guns.
That will solve everything.
So what? That many died by noon in Detroit. However most were gang driveby's and bad crack deals.
Did you read where the Kirkland police gave 300 pages of confidential evidence to the T.V. station by accident? And the defense attorney is saying he can't even get his hands on it. The attorney does state though that "this should have no impact on the trial however". (I bet!?)
No, I didn't hear that. Boobs.
Thanks. I feel better. Me being a long ways from Alabama I didn't know that if the structure of the state of Washington was such that citizens are allowed basic rights.
Being from Alabama, we dare defend the rights agreed upon by us and granted to us by the United States Constitution.
I feel better knowing that when I get to Washington I'll meet good folk like you all.
May God save the Republic.
How many more homicides have to be committed in a one month period before the news media start saying the US is in a civil war?
Too many Libs in Seattle....
Where's the exit strategy?!

"I really thought Seattle had more people than that."
You may be misled by the number of 'Seattle voters' from the last election. You know... when they stole the gubernatorialship, with extra votes for the third vote count.
