Seattle passes tax on gun, ammunition sales

[Spike]

The Seattle City Council voted unanimously Monday to establish a tax on gun and ammunition sales in the city, and to require gun owners to report lost and stolen firearms to police.

Council President Tim Burgess has said the tax of $25 per gun and 2 or 5 cents per round of ammunition is expected to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars annually that will be set aside for gun-violence-prevention research and programs.

Guns and boating accidents are not a new phenomenon

This is the great mystery of our time.

Every single American, with a lick of common sense, that I have met, has had a boating incident involving firearms.

Weird, eh?

After spending millions of dollars in research the best program they can come up with is to ban gun sales. We used to call that boon doggle.

Starbucks should sell guns. Actually, given their prices, you should get a free gun with every cup.
