Seattle Seahawks, Portland Trailblazers Owner Paul Allen Pledges Millions for Gun Control

The Democrats want to take your firearms away - that's not a myth - and it's been proven again after Microsoft co-founder, and Owner of the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks and NBA’s Portland Trailblazers donates a quick million dollars to assist in furthering the leftist Gun Control agenda in the State of Washington.

Paul Allen co-founded Microsoft alongside Bill Gates, and as of June 2017, he was estimated to be the 46th-richest person in the world, with an estimated net worth of $21.1 billion.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">My statement on a gun safety initiative in my home state of Washington: <br><br>Initiative 1639 is a reasonable and necessary measure that will improve the safety of our schools and our communities, which is why I have contributed a million dollars to the campaign. 1/2</p>&mdash; Paul Allen (@PaulGAllen) <a href="https://twitter.com/PaulGAllen/status/998636015702106113?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 21, 2018</a></blockquote>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-conversation="none" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">I hope people throughout the state will support the campaign, so that we can qualify and pass this important initiative into law. 2/2</p>&mdash; Paul Allen (@PaulGAllen) <a href="https://twitter.com/PaulGAllen/status/998636016595435520?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 21, 2018</a></blockquote>

His entire life he's pushed what's now known as a “globalist” agenda, and now the 65-year-old tech conglomerate is helping to further the infringement of the Second Amendment in hoping that he can assist through financing Initiative 1639 in the State of Washington, which would add tough new restrictions to legally obtaining a firearm.

Initiative 1639 plans on raising the age to purchase semi-automatic rifles to 21; creating an enhanced background check system similar to what is required for handguns; requiring completion of a firearm safety training course; and establishing standards for secure storage to “prevent guns from falling into dangerous hands,” as per the bill.

If the measure passes, it could threaten the Constitution effectively infringing upon the Second Amendment.

Below is the full context of Initiative 1639:

<p style=" margin: 12px auto 6px auto; font-family: Helvetica,Arial,Sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; -x-system-font: none; display: block;"> <a title="View Initiative 1639 on Scribd" href="https://www.scribd.com/document/379876186/Initiative-1639#from_embed" style="text-decoration: underline;" >Initiative 1639</a> by <a title="View Red Pill's profile on Scribd" href="https://www.scribd.com/user/366983429/Red-Pill#from_embed" style="text-decoration: underline;" >Red Pill</a> on Scribd</p><iframe class="scribd_iframe_embed" title="Initiative 1639" src="https://www.scribd.com/embeds/379876186/content?start_page=1&view_mode=scroll&access_key=key-NJqwH7ISXQpdK2NzSiwV&show_recommendations=true" data-auto-height="false" data-aspect-ratio="0.7729220222793488" scrolling="no" id="doc_82846" width="1300" height="1733" frameborder="0"></iframe>

If the measure passes, you can rest-assured that criminals, who disobey the law in the first place, will continue to obtain firearms.

Those who would be restricted from purchasing a semi-automatic rifle, as a result, included those from the ages of 18 to 20, would be left defenseless against would-be killers or intruders.

We're asking grown men to join the military at 18 and risk dying for our country, or to raise their young children, as many have families at this age, but they're not allowed to purchase a rifle?

The audacity is unbearable. If we were to raise the age of purchase for firearms, it would also make no sense to allow those under 21 to vote, as they've been denied their Constitutional rights.

Take note of the types of powerful billionaires pushing these measures, and that they simultaneously have the financial prowess to hire armed security for their families whilst traveling, but seemingly believe that an 18-year-old isn't capable of such.

Even worse, Paul Allen hires armed security for both of his team's stadiums, yet wants a young adult to have his or her home defenseless.

The Washington National Rifle Association (NRA) has since offered a challenge to the measure, albeit it's currently tied up in courts.

The last school shooting was done with a shotgun and revolver and the weapons were stolen from his parents, so how would this stupid bill protect anyone?

Our 2nd protects the others and shall not be infringed!

The school shootings are caused by other kids and in some cases the teachers ostracizing the odd kids or the ones that don't fit the "mold".

To many billionaire leftist pricks. And the best point was you can go fight and use a M16 at 18, possibly dying, but you cant come home and own a AR15 for your home? F that.

They want to parent your children in schools, and take all your power to fight away from a governmental slavery.

Government for and by the people or Communist slavery?
