No matter how you feel about private citizens carrying firearms, there's nothing to like about Nickels' plan. If we allow Nickels to ignore state law governing firearms, what basis will we have to object when some mayor in eastern Washington decides he's going to ignore state law concerning domestic partnerships? Kudos to McKenna for hauling Nickels up short.

All this plan is doing instead of actually enforcing laws in public places and making the public feel safe in our parks, hes just asking criminals to be less criminalistic. Its cheaper!

My opinion in brief: Nickel's ban will not (and ought not) to stand up in court. This is a state issue and should not be left to the reactive whims of the mayor, nor the voters. Additionally, does anyone in their right mind actually believe that a gun ban would do anything to deter the type of person who would open fire in a public place?
