Of course these thugs and brats have carte blanche wherever Concealed Carry is not the right of the people to enact a citizen arrest. It stops cold where people are permitted to defend themselves and others.

Washington is a “shall issue” state when it comes to concealed carry and has been for a long time - probably no armed citizens on that particular bus, though.

WA State actually has one of the most liberal CCW laws on the books, and one of the oldest. We are a "shall issue" state. WA State is also an open carry state, even on public buses. The problem is that not enough people excercise that right, especially in the liberal outpost called Seattle.
