Ah, I didn’t realize that counted as importing, turns out only people who already own one in Washington can bring one in if they previously left the state with it. Guess the answer is either dont do it or don’t get caught. The best answer is to ask a lawyer though. The NRA might have someone you can talk to for free if you’re willing to put up with dealing with them for a little while. Just use a disposable email / phone so they don’t bother you after.
The SRA varies a lot by chapter, it’s not really a national org in any meaningful way, but both the chapters I’ve done stuff with were pretty welcoming to social democrats. What would you describe yourself as? I might be able to give a better answer.
My local chapter is a mix of communists, anarchists, and soc dems. We also do open-invite firearm trainings, and have had some liberals show up recently, but none of them have really stuck around.
If you’re concerned about maga getting violent you’ll find like-minded people in the SRA, at least on that. If you’re open to being in an explicitly leftist space, I’d probably check them out, in case shit does hit the fan, you want to know people you can ally with.
About half the country is completely checked out of politics, most of them probably know Trump’s president, but uh, good luck getting accurate answers about anything else, only 47% of Americans can even name the 3 branches of government we have, so I’m being generous here.
The remaining half is split between people who are aware and people cheering it on.
Just get something fairly common and a 10rd compliant mag.
Much of hb1240 also only applies to sales and imports, but doesn’t ban ownership, so you can still have an ar-15 for example if you buy before you move.There’s plenty of higher capacity shit in the rest of the US, if it comes to a point where you need them, they’ll make their way in. Just reach hook up with your local branch of the SRA when you move there.
WA does have a state guard, but it’s like 50 people iirc.
In addition to everythong everyone has said, one major thing that people often don’t think about privacy is how it relates to enshittification.
Modern software services try to optimize everything to make as much money as possible. Everything is a/b tested, and whatever increases some arbitrary metric is what gets released.
They do this by tracking a ton of metrics about how you interact with everything. I know where I work we collect data about every time you click on anything, how long you hover over buttons, etc.
Nah, I mean you’re just in a weird spot where it’s hard to tell
