Hmmmm. Seems to me that state office elections should be determined in a similar manner as the President. Rural counties and constituents are more and more NOT being represented by those (s)elected by the YUGE population centers. Maybe the victors should be determined by the percentage of counties that vote in their favor.

Go to the courts.
This is incremental de facto destruction of the Second Amendment.

No, Stephan, your generation has NOT been defined by gun violence. It is seemingly defined by sentimentality, emotional outbursts, Left wing idiocacy, and a holier than thou (though it often seems it’s overrun by those in a Romans 1:18-32 condition) attitude.

"My generation has been defined by gun violence."

Yo Stevie! Why does it take government bureaucrats to force you to behave in a civilized manner? Are you all morons? Are you also going to expect them to make laws about taking "selfies" to keep you idiots from killing yourselves by falling off of cliffs?

We are ruled by spineless urbanites. They emerge in legions from the universities to feed on us.

I remember when I-676 went down in flames to a 70-30 vote aganist.

My late father (the widget) posted occassionally on FR during this time.

It hurts to see this pass.

Specifically, i-1639 will:

• Raise the age someone can purchase a rifle to 21. • Create an “enhanced background check system similar to what is used for handguns.” • Require a person to complete a firearms safety training course. • Create a common stand for secure gun storage.

Those in favor of the measure believe that even further gun laws will prevent mass shootings.

What friggin’ idiots. There is absolutely zip, zero, nada in this bill that will stop a person intent on killing people.

In NYS, if gun owners all voted against gun confiscator Andy Cuomo he would lose, but they don’t - incredible.

Unfortunately this is true throughout the nation. Here's the breakdown in the Washington vote:
