View Full Version : I'm so ashamed of my neighboring city of Seattle

And awfully glad I don't live there or even enjoy going there.

http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/seattle-to-add-tax-on-gun-ammunition-sales/

Not one spineless council person had the brains to suggest that this idea didn't make a lick of sense.

Yesterday they passed their own proposal to tax 25 bucks per gun and 2 to 5 cents per round of ammunition that will go to the city to fund Gun Violence research.

Many gun shops are already planning to relocate. Many of the 25 or so gun outlets they describe are pawn shops or on line outlets, guys selling out of their house and such.

Turns my stomach to see such unanimous stupidity on a city counsel for a city the size of Seattle.

Doubt it's over though.

Here's what one of the few Seattle gun shops has to say about it. Their business is likely no longer viable:

"This would certainly put us under." Well, that was probably their goal. Loss of sales tax revenue be damned.

I hope someone is tracking the violent crime rate in Seattle, because it's bound to go up now.

Just what Seattle needs, a "feel good" law that doesn't change a d***** thing! This has San Francisco/Los Angeles written all over it. When the liberals take over, common sense and logic goes right out the window. I just know the citizens of Seattle feel better already because of the new law and they won't mind at all that their taxes will increase to make up for any revenue losses. Gun Violence Research indeed! That fund will be spent on more give-away programs to keep the crafty politicians in office!

This means that the bad guys will be the only ones exempt from the tax because they steal theirs or buy um off the street....Stupid liberals....Unfortunately I think we better get used to this kind of tax attack when slick Hillary Rodham Bottom takes over next year because Demorats HATE guns and LOVE taxes so what better group of people to tax than gun owners

I almost bought my CZ 452 from Precision Shooter.

The comparison to LA/San Francisco is spot on. They have a pole puffer for a mayor, a middle eastern woman who specializes in stirring the pot.

Their other big pride and joy is All Gender restrooms through out the city. So you have mens, ladies, and other I guess.
This is in case Caitlyn comes to town it can have multiple choices. Man, woman or it?

No regard of course for the cost of plumbing and remodeling to accomodate a third restroom in who knows how many locations throughout the city, probably required in all new commerical buildings or remodels.

Those big-city liberal politicians have failed to stem the violence of their criminal constituents, so they claim to be "doing something about the so-called gun problem" by crapping on the law-abiding citizens & businesses.

Makes sense.... if you're a brain dead corrupt entitled low information voter like their followers are.

Just sayin'

It is not a charitable attitude but I hope it jumps significantly.

Even if the crime rate skyrockets, liberal logic will say it is just because they don't have ENOUGH control and clearly a ban on guns would work better. Not suggesting, just saying.

One thing I have found is you cannot talk with these people. They are right and you are wrong. If you do start to make a point they will talk non stop until you walk away. Reminds me of adolescents who put there hands over their ears and yell na-na-na na-na when they don't want to hear.

It would never work. When you saluted a superior officer would say Yes Sir, Mam, or it? I'm living in a world that I don't understand.
