The state of Washington has a reputation as a bastion of liberalism, but there are pockets of sanity even there. This video provides a fine example of how elected officials should (and should not) conduct themselves.

The city of Oak Harbor in Washington State recently held a city council meeting. During that meeting, an Afghanistan veteran, Lucas Yonkman, approached the podium to deliver some thoughts to the council about adhering to the 2A.....

Great post Bambi, one of your better ones in my opinion. I would bet a weeks pay the vagina who walked out of the meeting would have been the first one to dive under the table if the shooting started; hell, if a baby was available he probably would hide behind it.

Washington is one of those States like Illinois that is basically held hostage by its major city. Just like liberal Chicago politics runs Illinois, so does liberal Seattle politics run Washington. Same thing with Oregon (Portland), Nevada (Las Vegas), Colorada (Denver). Central Washington and parts of Eastern Washington are very conservative areas of the country. Geographically, there is a lot more "red" country in those States than "blue" country. Lots of conservatives in those States, just way too many big city liberals there as well. Thankfully Tennessee, and Texas where I primarily live, do not have this same problem.

Just an obvious observation:
Vet and Mayor- Common Sense and Professional
Lib Councilman- Emotion based and Childish.

I emailed the mayor to thank him for being a great American.
Just did the same:
Mayor Dudley,
As a retired Army Veteran and previous resident of Washington state(Fort Lewis) who enjoyed the outdoor activities while stationed there, I would like to thank you for your response to Lucas Yonkman and your support of our 2nd Amendment rights. I came across this information in a hunting forum in the state of Tennessee where I now reside. The original source of information: http://asp.militarygear.com/2013/01/22/oak-harbor-city-councilman-afraid-of-vets-concealed-handgun/
As for Councilman Almberg, he handled the situation very childishly. Much like the child who did not get his way and quit the game to go home.
Once again, thank you for your response and your defense of the Constitution of the United States. Please feel free to share this with Councilman Almberg and any of your constituents.

These servants are out of control.
Not only do Senators and congress critters assume they are royalty, but now simple city councilmen think they have the power to rule over and disarm citizens?
"We the people" have surrendered so much liberty, we're only an executive order from the mailman away from boot licking.
Pitiful.

Not yet, Memphis (Shelby Co) is blue along with Nashville (Davidson Co).
