In the latest attempt at government overreach, Seattle is now pushing to limit the sale of firearms, as if it’s some sort of sin to own weapons. This time they’re doing so via a tax.
The concept of a ‘sin tax’ is nothing new. Taxing things a special interest deems harmful is a clever tactic. But what gives the government the right to determine what is “good and what is “bad”? The idea that the government can use uneven taxation to limit access to legal commodities is a slippery slope.
And now Seattle is breaking new ground in it’s newest sin tax in order to curb gun ownership.

I love it, the politicians of Seattle are morons…..just buy your guns and ammo outside the city like the bad guys do….problem solved!!
SHUT up
Absolutely shameful!
Slick veiled move to increase city revenues. They know the upper income earners buy the majority of firearms and certainly the majority of ammo as they practice often. The sale of weapons and ammo will not slow, as the tax is unlikely to affect most of the people purchasing firearms and ammo. Truly a joke in poor taste by a Socialist city gov.
Obama’s people are at it again.
This is exactly what one would expect from the LEFT coast
So what, thugs can purchase them in the nearest city.
Did anyone NOT think the anti-gun people would try this?
Make your own ammo
What a shock! Are you crazy?
