Gotta love Reddit. Quality straw man though I guess. A bit lazy towards the end.

Let’s be real, those dead kids get plenty of sympathy - but who’s advocating for the chickens?

Dude - you done making accusations and inserting your own bias into what I said? Or do you really think I owe you anything? I said my peace. Totally open to you asking questions to see if you can understand my perspective but I'm not going to engage when you have already made up your mind.

I was excited to sign myself up for this until I saw they’re going to “beef up” the law with penalties if a person puts themselves on the list then tries to buy. I just want to be stopped, not get in trouble if one of my alters does it. I have professionally diagnosed dissociative identity disorder.

Well I came to the US from somewhere with much less freedom. And I’ll say I will NOT ban myself from having anything. It sounds disgusting (almost as if encouraging people to become sheeples)

If you don’t like guns, don’t buy one, but don’t give up your own rights voluntarily. Why do you want to let the government have the satisfaction?

Yeah as a person who has been suicidal and can't buy one of my own volition I'd feel a lot better if they had given me the choice to voluntarily not be able to buy one. I'd feel like I have a lot more agency.

Exactly. Mental illness doesn't cause mass shootings anyways.

Right, so then distill your argument down to actual valid points - not fear of coyotes (and it’s cute that you think you’ll ever be able to bag a coyote that’s taking your chickens so long as you own a gun) or the idea that having a gun in the car will prevent someone else’s aggressive driving.

If those are actual, real talking points for you then you’re either a straight up coward or just someone looking for an excuse to kill something.

Yeah fair enough. I didn't read very much of it. Then again - usually I never find these worth reading. But my bad nonetheless.

Oh spanaway. How I hate driving through you.

Nah. Didn't say that. But it is a tool that may be necessary with some of these issues. If they come in my home and put my family at risk? Sheriff response time out here is 60 minutes+. Yesterday they triggered an alarm trying to get in a house. Seems like mailbox, to porch pirate, to breaking and entering is a obvious escalation. You expect me to sit for 60 min and wait while my family is harmed? Nah.

If there is no way to move to a safe space or ward off a wild animal? Don't get me wrong - we live in harmony with the wildlife around us and our animals (cow, horses, chickens) are pets - not food. But it can be very unpredictable out here and even a tool that is used as a last resort is still a necessary tool to have.

What's super fucked is you can't see past your own world view to understand that it may not fit every other.

I don't believe in armed robbery. Can I ban it, or should I just abstain?

Haha word! Thats good to know… in that case I suppose if I go get my license first then I can just ask them how to proceed with the rest :) thank you!!

That seems correct

🤙🏼 appreciate ya!! Yeah, that makes sense. Like I said it asks where it’s registered to when I quote my insurance- and the difference in rates between Michigan and Washington are tremendous, so I definitely would want it registered in Washington. I’d just change my address on my insurance first, then register the car, then change insurance… correct?

I did drivers license first (which you need for the title and registration) and changed my insurance before getting my title/registration. (Also did that last step pretty late, probably not recommended 😅).

Register first. Your current insurance will cover you.

That’s not really the law of the land anymore though is it.

But those who suffer from mental illness, are likely not thinking clearly when they seek a firearm. Since mental illness does not make purchasing ( unless you’ve been involuntarily committed )weapons illegal, it’s prudent to be proactive.

I found I will need my bill of sale because it will be a newly purchased vehicle within 90 days, and I know I’ll have to do this within 30 days of moving- I’m just confused on the order of how I should do everything 😃

I know this is Reddit but I scanned the article and it looks like this is for people who know they have a mental illness to protect themselves when they may not be thinking clearly. That’s it. It’s not some super cure for mass shootings or gun violence and it was never intended to be so.

Anyway, y’all can get back to your galaxy brain comments now.

>Does that ferry still operate?

Are you sure you're from Washington? ;)

Are there any ferry routes that have been shut down over the years? Nothing major that I can think of...

I live about 50 miles North of there. But lived in Oak Harbor for about 10 years.

As someone from rural pierce county you definitely 100% should get tf out of rural pierce county it’ll make you feel so much better and safer. Sounds like a Spanaway or Eatonville situation
