I talked to a deputy Monday, he knows the law (the lower deputies didn't) but says his hands are tied because the county commissioner are refusing to adopt a weapon policy. I left pamphlets with security guard (different one than Friday) and deputies.
The lock boxes are there, but they are not providing keys, or following state law. He told me my only recourse is to take it up with the county commissioners. I went to the commissioners office, they were not in the lovely and polite female at the counter took my name and number and some pamphlets and seemed interested in what I had to say. A few days later and no call from the commissioners though. So looks like I need to phone them or write them. Time to be the squeaky wheel. Does anybody else here live in Skagit County?
On a side note I went across the street to Mt. Vernon Police/Courthouse and left pamphlets and asked how I could check a fire arm and was told I couldn't, the one officer lady, said "most people are smart enough not to bring their guns to court". I told them it was illegal not to provide a means of checking my firearm in, the other lady then told me she may have mispoke that they do check in knives and other prohibited items but never had to deal with a firearm before.
