re the Seattle public library

so, the SPL changed its policy or rule a few years ago and now some people can either OC or cc. When and why and how did the change take place, if I may ask?

was there are direct lawsuit against them, or just a threat or ?

Goodness how long has WA had preemption? We've got to get out there and educate. Shall not be infringed means just that. If people can't accept that, too bad. That's what the law says.

What does that even mean?

It means the hippies are mad they can't ignore higher law and just make up whatever law they want and then impose it on everybody else.

Apparently the municipalities' ability to operate by their own rules and policies. You know, stuff like banning guns and knives; prohibiting drunks, blacks, transgender, gays from the library. Things like that.

Welcome to their fiefdom.

It means that they either don't consider themselves part of Washington state -- or they consider that the smaller a political subdivision is, the more legitimate it is for being in touch with what people immediately want.

Of course, just try getting a neighborhood council together to enact 'very local' ordinances that violate the Seattle Municipal Code, and you'll find out which they really believe.
