“I’m honored to have been invited to share the concerns of more than a million Washington gun owners who are now feeling the effects of all the problems with Initiative 594,” Gottlieb said. “This poorly-written measure, which is now being challenged in federal court, has already created confusion for legions of law-abiding citizens.

“I’m hoping to meet with my own state legislators,” he added. “I want them to hear from me not only as an activist but also as a taxpayer and constituent. This will be an important event because it will give concerned gun owners from all over the state a rare opportunity to meet their representatives face-to-face, while they are all gathered in Olympia.

“Like it or not,” Gottlieb – a Bellevue resident – observed, “gun owners have rights, too. We will not be silenced by elitist billionaires, nor will we quietly accept being treated as second-class citizens because we exercise our Second Amendment rights. I hope gun owners join us in Olympia to Rally for our Rights.”

Also , citys , like Chicago , with very strict anti gun laws , have some of the highest rates of shootings and other crime rates in the US ?? Gun laws do NOT deter criminals so why help these criminals by disarming lawful citizens ?… Read more »
