The People actually voting on a critical issue in a non-partisan manner. And, I assume, it's even constitutional.
The true voice of the people being heard, for once

One of the best stories from this election cycle you probably haven't heard

I don't think I would call that a critical issue.
Nor would I call it the best election story. ...or non-partisan. Would you say that if such a bill was shot down via referendum (as would surely happen in Indiana and a host of other states)? It's stupid that I wouldn't be able to pass down my grandfather's rifle to my son, just as it was passed down several times before, unless we drive down to a gun store, fork over $10-$50 and fill out paperwork (if I lived in Washington). At least you can all rest assured that I wouldn't be arming a terrorist with a lever action "assault rifle" (it's magazine holds more than 9 rounds
) though.
It's not the end of the world, but it's a nuisance that amounts to making others "feel good" without really doing much (kind of like the TSA version of airport security). If that would make some of the gun control people actually content (fat chance of that I'm guessing), I'd probably not mind. Of course, with politics and government everything becomes a slippery slope, which is why the "evil" NRA and others fight against it tooth and nail.

Re: I don't think I would call that a critical issue.
Feel good legislation. The citizen suffers for the sake of feelings, not evidence. No tangible benefit can be identified. No tangible result can be drawn. It will go the way of Colorado's magazine ban. Unenforceable, feel good pap.
I must ask though, you know of an FFL that does $10 transfers? Good grief, let us know! The cheapest in my area is $75.
And Cainer...Mother Jones? Really?
