But you on the west side you are in the minority, over on the Right side of the state we at least enjoy a strong majority, and much better weather.

And this is the issue. At some point in the not too distant future, the libs/antis will be pushing this at the state level. Look at what's happening in CA.

You have to go to BC or Alaska, to get the good salmon of late. I am talking packing the freezer every year..

No way. Not going to happen state-wide. NO way. WA is not CA. Seattle can figure their shit out, but NO way WA is going the way of CA, state-wide. You can quote me on this down the road. I know too many powerful farmers on the east side. They will not allow the CA disease to spread. Let Seattle do its thing and good for Seattle. WA state is not "at risk". We have some seriously powerful folks from the legacy farming community that will not allow that to happen. There is serious money at work here. The biggest risk is a bad economic downturn that may allow leftist candidates to advance.

I applaud your gumption and fight, keep at it and continue to spread the message of the lunacy that emanates out of King, and Snohomish counties. The way the demographics of WA state, it's so ridiculously tilted towards the Puget Sound counties, how would a bunch of 'powerful farmers' in Central and Eastern parts, prevent continued restrictions and attacks on the 2A from the Microsoft/Amazon/Nordstrom/REI cabal of wealth?

Wrong. 1639.

BTW, have you signed and advocated I1094 (to overturn 1639)?

Do not sell short the opinions of eastern WA folks--the majority of the state, geographically speaking. You may just as well have the same opinion of Texas residents, if you only form your macro opinions from folks from Austin. Or, why not judge folks from Georgia, based only on your perception of the electorate from Atlanta? Things are more complicated than you think. You might consider not trashing an entire state with sparse data from your personal perceptions gleaned from the "news" headlines "du jour".. If you do, you are a victim of the media circus. Do your homework.

Have you ever driven through Washington or Oregon? Do you know how much of the US food supply comes from these states? Do you know how many Trump signs you will see if you drive through 90 % of the geography? Why do you judge our states from news from a couple of cities? Do you judge Texas from news headlines from Austin?

OK Rant over.


Been a long time since I was out there. East of the mountains seems to be still pretty well in touch with reality. Both Oregon and Washington. I was born and raised in Idaho, but have been gone a long time (other than visits). Still have family in Idaho and last I checked they are still doing well with respect to firearms.

That mountain chain seems to hold the lunatics and addicts to the western part of the states.

You have a Democrat governor, and both houses of you legislature are Democrat majority. Maybe there's something about your state politics I don't know. But with all those Democrats running things, it doesn't bode well.

Everything you say is true except that it doesn't mean anything. The liberals in Olympia decide what happens to the people (all of them) no matter where they live.

I was born and raised in Washington state, lived there for 50 years. We moved in 1999 and even back then the hand writing was on the wall. We knew we had to get out...and we did.

My only real vacation each year is spent in eastern Washington. Those Those trump signs come clear out to where I live. Unfortunately we are being taken over by entire suburbs of townhouses constructed to house Indians, Mexicans, Chinese, and Muslims. None of them are conservative. We have lost our checks in the house. The time for farmer money is long past.

I know my location shows AZ, but I spent the last 20 years in Olympia. Yes, the agricultural part of the state is predominantly right. Yes, it’s the good part if the state. The problem is, no matter how powerful the farmers are, the population is far less. Washington is a blue state. 80% of the land is populated by red, but the 20% of the state populated by blue, is 80% of the states population.

As to what P220Smudge said about SAA and Bullseye, SAA still owns the Tactical Tailor building and property in Lakewood where they used to be located, unless they recently sold it. They can always move back.
