HUGE WIN for Gun Owners in the Washington State Supreme Court
This video features William Kirk, President of Washington Gun Law, discussing a significant legal victory for gun owners in Washington State. The Washington State Supreme Court unanimously struck down the City of Edmonds' "oppressive safe storage provisions" in the case of Bass v. City of Edmonds. Kirk emphasizes the critical importance of state preemption laws, which dictate that only the state, not individual municipalities, can set firearm restrictions. He criticizes the City of Edmonds for pursuing litigation on an ordinance they knew to be invalid, at the expense of taxpayers, highlighting how state preemption prevents a confusing patchwork of local gun laws and ensures consistent legal definitions across the state.
