Protester rallied at the state Capitol in Olympia to denounce an expanded initiative on gun-purchase background checks that voters widely approved last month.
Following a tradition going back to at least the Whiskey Rebellion of the early 1790s, demonstrators gathered here Saturday afternoon at the Capitol to protest the tyranny of what they consider unlawful American government.
But instead of decrying a tax on distilled liquor such as Pennsylvanians did just years after the U.S. Constitution was ratified, demonstrators here at the “I Will Not Comply” rally denounced a law expanding gun-purchase background checks that was approved last month by Washington voters.

The Second Amendment was never challenged in a Supreme Court until 71 YEARS after the American Revolution.

This means that a whole generation died off practically and the second generation born during their lifetimes completely forgot what the Second Amendment meant. But us`n up here in the mountains since 1644 we never forgit gun rights it the same for them 370 years of carryin` and bearin`. -nope

That`s why colonial families know from whence came the Constitution and why almost everyone else don`t seem to know nothing` bout what it means.

The Georgia Supreme Court ruled in Nunn v. Georgia (1 Ga. (1 Kel.) 243 (1846))

And as a descendant of immigrants from Eastern Europe and Ireland, I share your sentiments on gun rights...

Because my ancestors lived under tyranny...Why they fled their homelands for America...

Which is why whenever I’m asked “why I need an assault rifle” I answer “Because the police and the military have them...”
