Another anti-gun ballot measure has been filed. As you can see, in this case one of the chief petitioners is not even an Oregon resident.
This measure requires that firearms be locked up and may not be "transferred" without having trigger locks or being in locked containers. Of course it is no longer even legal to transfer a firearm except to close family members unless the transfer is done through a dealer, so who is liable then?
Section 2 (sub 3 ) would hold you strictly liable for any injury that occurred five years after you transferred a firearm without a trigger lock . We'll update as we analyze the latest hare-brained push by the mindless Bloomberg stooges.
