"One police chief in Washington State wants to make his city a "sanctuary" for gun owners.

Republic Police Department Chief Loren Culp is looking to shield his city from a new state law that imposes more strict limitations on firearms.

Initiative 1639 was recently approved in Washington and prevents individuals under the age of 21 from buying semiautomatic weapons.

The law also creates the potential for someone to be criminally prosecuted if he or she stores a gun where a "prohibited" person gains access to it."

Does a law enforcement officer who swore to uphold the law have a right/duty to selectively enforce laws? It's not that easy to answer. Consider the laws concerning pot and drinking. How about speed limits. There appears to be some 'gray' areas.
