Washington AG's 2019 legislative agenda is heavy on gun control

 

[not new guy]

Why? Why do they care so much about such a statistically meaningless “problem”?

Why? Why do they care so much about such a statistically meaningless “problem”?

Well that's an easy one. Because an armed populace is dangerous to tyranny.

The optics of them doing something for the “good of society.” We all know that the only people affected by things like this are law-abiding gun owners and sportsmen and women.

From the OP's linked article, a few choice quotes:

Assault weapons ban: The AG’s office states that assault weapons are semi-automatic rifles with at least one military-style feature that make the firearm shoot more accurately and rapidly. Noting that less than 2 percent of Americans own such guns, the AG’s office will recommend a ban of assault rifles in Washington in 2019.


Ghost guns: “Ghost guns” are essentially untraceable firearms that are ordered through the mail, and often made with plastic using a 3D printer. The issue surrounding ghost guns arose in 2018, and prompted legal action. The AG’s office will recommend a ghost gun ban in 2019, prohibiting the ownership or transfer of any firearm that cannot be detected by a metal detector, and increases the criminal penalty for using an undetectable gun in a felony crime.
