Developing: WA Voters Approve Tighter Background Checks on Guns
Time to buy a 3D printer, or just shop on the black market.
Voters in Washington state are approving Initiative 594, which would create one of the nation's toughest background checks for gun purchases.
In Tuesday's returns, I-594 was being supported by more than 60 percent of voters, winning handily in nine of the 10 largest counties.
The initiative would extend background checks to purchases made online and at gun shows. Such checks are now required only when buying from licensed dealers.

Proof that a majority can be wrong. Same goes for Colorado and North Dakota's rejection of a personhood amendment.
Easy for the people who've survived the test of life to voting age to decide the fate of those after..
Background checks are already required at gun shows. these people are functionally retarded.
And, as someone who has bought a few guns online, you have to have those guns shipped to an FFL, requiring you get a NICS background check before you can complete the purchase.
