The ‘Cut-And-Paste’ Problem with Initiative 1639When the authors of Initiative 1639—the 30-page, multi-faceted gun control measure now facing Washington voters on the November ballot—defined a “semiautomatic assault rifle,” they created a split among firearms owners, leaving some to believe the authors to be “gun ignorant” or just incompetent, while others think they are trying to ensnare every self-loading rifle in the state with a wide net.

If it matters, and you are counting for some reason, the page 12 quote appears to have another error, otherwise *this part* makes no sense in english...
"“A signed application to purchase a pistol or semiautomatic assault rifle shall constitute a waiver of confidentiality and written request that the health care authority, mental health institutions, and other health care facilities release, *to an inquiring court or law enforcement agency*, information relevant to the applicant’s eligibility to purchase a pistol or semiautomatic assault rifle *to an inquiring court or law enforcement agency*.”
