When the Washington state Supreme Court upheld the state’s prohibition on magazines capable of holding more than ten rounds, no one was particularly surprised.
Washington has been on a gun control binge since 2014, but the legislature went into overdrive after voters approved Initiative 1639 in 2018.
First, how well have all these new gun control laws worked?
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Washington’s overall homicide rate has soared 77% since 2014, including a 45% jump from 2018 to 2023. When guns are involved, the rate rose 139% since 2014 and 77% since 2018.
Not only did the homicide rate jump after Washington became addicted to gun control, but the percentage of homicides committed with firearms rose 22% from 2018 to 2023.
So, more homicides and more homicides committed with guns. Washington’s gun control laws have worked about as well as they ever do: Not at all.
However, that doesn’t mean the state’s highest court can’t uphold them, as we saw in Washington State v. Gator’s Custom Guns.
