\"Washington<\/a>

\u201cPersons who do not like guns should have certain rights, too,\u201d Cofer told the committee. \u201cI want to keep guns out of my home, even if I can\u2019t avoid them anywhere else.\u201d (Photo: Salon<\/em>)<\/p><\/div>\n

The Washington State legislature is considering a bill that would require a concealed firearm carrier to seek permission before bringing a gun into another person\u2019s house.<\/p>\n

Both sides debated the bill on Tuesday in the Senate Law and Justice Committee, according to The Spokesman-Review<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The impetus for the new law, according to supporters, came from a Washington State resident named Suzanne Cofer. Cofer hosted a neighborhood gathering one evening and found a pistol on the stairs after everyone had left. Needless to say, she was not amused.<\/p>\n

\u201cPersons who do not like guns should have certain rights, too,\u201d Cofer told the committee. \u201cI want to keep guns out of my home, even if I can\u2019t avoid them anywhere else.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sen. Sam Hunt, D-Olympia, the bill\u2019s sponsor, called it a way to \u201cprotect someone\u2019s castle from unwanted firearms.\u201d<\/p>\n

A person who fails to get permission before bringing a firearm into another\u2019s home could be charged with a misdemeanor and get their concealed carry license suspended for five years.<\/p>\n

Opponents of the bill, including the National Rifle Association, highlighted the bill\u2019s vague language, its uselessness in light of existing trespass laws, and its potential to harm trade workers and law enforcement agents.<\/p>\n

Republican Sen. Mike Padden asked Sen. Hunt whether the bill covered private gatherings or all types of meetings. Sen. Hunt said the bill covers all meetings but tried to reassure his colleague that the bill wouldn\u2019t keep someone from attending \u2013 it would just keep them from bringing a firearm.<\/p>\n

Sen. Hunt\u2019s statement is strange because existing trespass laws already require an individual to leave another person\u2019s home if asked. As Tom Kwieciak, a National Rifle Association spokesman, said at the committee hearing, the bill under consideration is duplicative and unnecessary.<\/p>\n

\u201cA property owner can always ask people before they enter the home if they\u2019re armed,\u201d Kwieciak said.<\/p>\n

The bill could also keep trade workers and police officers from being able to defend themselves and their equipment while on the job or off duty. A representative of the state\u2019s sheriffs and police chiefs organization said an exemption should be added for law enforcement officers who often carry concealed weapons when off duty.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, the bill denies law-abiding citizens the right to self-defense.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou may not know who\u2019s also at their house,\u201d said Phil Watson of the Firearms Policy Coalition. \u201cYou may not know what kind of an environment you\u2019re walking into.\u201d<\/p>\n

Watson also pointed out that concealed carry permit holders are \u201cone of the safest segments of our society.\u201d They\u2019ve all passed background checks, and they commit crimes at a fraction of the average rate<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Senate Law and Justice Committee have yet to vote on the bill. Democrats control the committee 4-3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
