“having a permit...”
Look up the definition of “infringe.” Your police are infringing on a right given to you by the Constitution.
There has been a steady encroachment of our rights by government.
It should be stopped by the USSC.
Yes, I know this and so does everyone else who owns a gun in this state.
Your police are infringing on a right given to you by the Constitution.

Not quite right.
The Constitution is recognizing inalienable rights possessed prior to the Constitution, given by God to all free men.
It has been stopped by the USSC. Right to possess a working handgun in your home DC v Heller.
The second amendment "gave" you nothing.

The town of Republic, Washington is voting on making itself a “sanctuary city”. But for 2nd Amendment rights - where ALL regulations, permits, etc. (state and Federal) for firearms will not be followed.
It sounds like a formality anyway. The sheriff said that he and his deputies follow the U.S. Constitution - they are under strict orders not to infringe on anybody’s right to own (or borrow) a firearm.
Washington State a few years ago came up with a stupid rule that doesn’t let you loan somebody a gun. (It was sold as a keep hands out of criminals bill, to make every firearm “transfer” have the required paperwork and $25 fee). But in the 30 pages of the bill, it is spelled out that letting someone else other than your spouse shoot your gun is illegal!
Even against the law to let someone try out your rifle at the range! (Of course nobody enforces it.)
Nothing in there about “transferring” your gun to a gunsmith to work on it either, so they are trying to get that added/clarified. Some gunsmiths don’t take on new work for people they don’t know just in case it is a trap.
