OR Anti-Gunners to Push 2020 Safe Storage Measure

Posted By TGM_Staff On Friday, July 19, 2019 10:34 AM. Under Featured  

A new Oregon gun control initiative requiring so-called “safe storage” has been filed for the 2020 election.

Gun control advocates in Oregon will be pushing another initiative for the 2020 ballot, this one dubbed the Cindy Yuille and Steve Forsyth Act, and the Oregon Firearms Federation is already calling it “a rehash of all the dangerous and vindictive language we have seen in previous ballot measures and failed legislation.”

Initiative 40 will require 112,040 valid signatures according to the Oregon Secretary of State elections division.

According to an OFF bulletin, “The measure not only requires that your self-defense firearms be rendered useless, it also, (once again) holds you responsible for the criminal misuse of a firearm stolen from you.”

“As has been the case in all previous ballot measures and failed legislation,” OFF asserted, “the measure contains not one single word about stiffer penalties for people who actually steal guns. In effect, you face greater liability than the thief who stole your firearm.”

The four-page initiative may be read here.

Like neighboring Washington, Oregon is becoming a hotbed of anti-gun-rights political activism.

“We were successful in defeating the worst of the gun legislation in the 2019 session,” OFF said in its alert. “But the battle never ends.  The Bloomberg stooges are very wealthy and not likely to make the mistakes they made in the past. This fight will be all about legal bill and this last session was costly.
