Don’t see that every day
The concealed weapons holder who shot a man in Seattle was apparently homeless:
The shooter, whose last two known addresses were homeless shelters in Seattle and Federal Way, could not be found for comment Tuesday. His last known address is at the Compass Center, a Seattle shelter and social-services facility for the homeless and low-income people, according to public records.

Give up your home before your gun?
That’s dedication!

Lots of homeless people get beaten up, set on fire, robbed of what little they have. I tend to have my doubts about their mental stability, but on the other hand, I bet some of the “bum burners” are having second thoughts around Seattle and Federal Way, right about now.

This could get interesting. Unless I am out to lunch on the WA CHL statute, it requires an actual permanent address (not a mail drop). If the CHL holder gave a homeless shelter as a permanent address, and that shelter’s policy is NOT to allow it’s temporary residents to claim it as Home of Record, then the CHL holder could be in trouble for falsifying his CHL application.
According to Phil at Random Nuclear Strikes blog, the libtards in Seattle are all over the local nanny muni gov’t there trying to get the shooter charged with something, anything, so they can express their anti-gun posture. They hate to have to agree with their COP and DA who have both said, up to now, that the CHL holder has done nothing wrong, and can’t be charged.
The libtards may be hoist on their own petard, however, since it is their position that the “homeless” should be allowed to have permanent addresses so that they can pretend that they are solid citizens, and worthy of hiring, getting loans, etc.
It’ll be interesting to see which faction, the anti-gun or the pro-homeless wins out here, but any time libtards are slugging it out among themselves is fun to watch.
