I just spent the last 30 or so mins on the phone with Mike Carrell (called me after his KOMO spot) we discussed the possibility of Constitutional Carry, amongst a few other issues relating to the Constitution. He is a 2A supporter to the death as well as a CONSTITUTIONAL supporter. (look at his record if you dont believe me) He told me that as long as Republicans take control of the Senate (state senate that is in case anyone isn't following yet) He will become the Judiciary Chair and it would be "a lot more likely that we could get more self defense and personal protection bills passed."
He has also reaffirmed Jim's fears that if Democrats get control he has been promised that the assault weapons ban will come back into play, but he told me that the likelihood of that passing is slim to none, based on the few Democrats he can count on for a vote in the Judiciary Comittee (has to pass comittee first obviously). Not that we should not keep our eyes peeled and be on the lookout, but we DO have someone on our side at least.
Basic moral of the story is that the status quo needs to be changed or we will continue to face even MORE threats to our rights, whther they be 2A or 4A or 5A or taxA....
