If family requests notification, 72 hour delay to return http://lawfilesext.leg.wa.gov/biennium/ ... 5381-S.pdf

Interesting idea, I'm curious if it's ever been a real problem without notification...otherwise it sounds like a feel good/do nothing unfunded mandate.

I'm not sure what to make of it. The notification sounds fine, I am not sure about the 72 hour thing -- it doesn't really connect to the reason why the guns were taken by LE. It might be appropriate in some situations, but not others.
I do think it is interesting so many of these little bills sneak through without getting much public/media attention or scrutiny.
No articles from Dave Workman, no SAF or NRA comments. Just nothing that I could find.

I think it's a matter of importance - folks like Dave, the SAF or NRA can't keep sounding the alarm for low level stuff like this. Honestly, I personally have no problem with it - but only if I ignore the cost/hassle/paperwork it will create for LEOs and their office staff. If I were WACOPS, I'd be pretty concerned about the fiscal ramifications of this bill. Even if you only deal with this situation occasionally - you still have to invest all of the time/energy into building a system, creating the procedures/forms - you can't do that overnight and/or for free.

Call me an asshole,but most of the time I can't get worked up.over government departments struggling under the load of new systems and paperwork. Keeps them too busy to do more harmful things.

My main concern is how this might be abused based on false accusations. There's no appeal process either, you just lose your guns for 72 hours, and it isn't tied back to ANY specific type of situation under the RCWs. A great example of how a bill that is very short and simple is actually bad.
