2nd city tries to tell state how to run gun law:
A second Washington city has decided to tell the state how to run its gun laws and now is in court because of the decision.
WND reported last month that Seattle was being sued for imposing a gun “safe storage” requirement on residents that goes beyond what state law allows.
Now the Second Amendment Foundation says the city of Edmonds is being sued over the same issue.
The foundation is joined by the National Rifle Association in the case over the state’s 35-year-old preemption statute establishing the state’s authority to set gun rules.
