Here you can read Knute Berger’s thoughts on Nickels’ ban on CCW holders in Seattle, which Mr. Berger kindly calls “misguidedâ€.
The reason I point this out is because Berger is not usually a proponent of civil rights involving firearms. For instance, he is opposed to carrying in National Parks.
While he may not see the light on that issue, even he gets why CCW on City of Seattle property is important.
In other banner news, rumor has it that five US House RINOs introduced HR – 6257. The Assault Weapons Ban reauthorization of 2008.

If it is true, the House Republican leadership should run them out of the party with a pitchfork. I don’t care about how much closer to a majority it will give the Dems there. We should not be made to stand for this.
Introduced in June, last action in July. The AWB is not going anywhere for a while. Prepare, but don’t get alarmed about it.
Preparation should consist of:
1) Letting the Republican leadership of both this Congress and the next that such actions, or any failure to stop an AWB reauthorization, will be repaid with staying home, not donating to their campaigns, etc.
2) Buying rifles, lowers and receivers, magazines, reloading equipment and spare parts – all to be prepared for the limited or non-availability of the same in several months.
