Yeah, gun owners are just paranoid. *ROLLING EYES*
On today's King County Agenda (passed) - illegal* regulation that requires all firearms be locked up in YOUR home in unincorporated King County. And unlike Seattle's rule there are NO exceptions.
117 NEW SECTION. SECTION 3. It is unlawful for any person in King County,state of Washington, outside the boundaries of incorporated cities and towns within King
118 County, to keep a firearm, whether loaded or unloaded with ammunition, within any
119 premise unless the firearm is safely stored in or using a secure firearm storage or safety
120 device.
At least Seattle's Ordinance allows for a "legal authorized user":
Also fun is that reloading components, or even spent (fired) casings would be classified as "ammunition":
A. "Ammunition" means ammunition or cartridge cases, primers, bullets or 99 propellant powder, designed for use in any firearm.
* NOTE: This ord is illegal because it violates State Preemption and because it violates SCOTUS' Heller vs DC ruling.
The ruling says that requiring handguns to be locked or disassembled in the home is a de facto ban.
