Seattle Gun And Ammo Tax Hilarity

Post by skb12172 »

Heh...Liberals are bad at math. Just look at the $8 Big Mac, thanks to the $15 minimum wage.

Note that their commissioned study found that there is a high rate of 'recidivism' among gunshot 'victims'. They keep using those words... I am not sure they mean what they think they mean.

This article is most diverting...
But there’s evidence Seattleites are just going outside the city to buy their guns.
Gee. Ya think? :lol:
Seattle police say the increase in shootings seems to be tied to the drug trade – and revenge.
Who-da guessed?
Dave Workman doesn’t criticize the study, but he does think the city council should have predicted the results of the gun tax, such as gun dealers leaving with no drop in gun ownership.
“All these gun control laws affect the wrong people,” Workman said. “The gang bangers don’t go in and buy ammunition at retail, at least not around here. It certainly hasn’t stopped them from getting their hands on firearms.”
Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D

Yup, plenty of comedy from reading between the lines. They screwed up California, Colorado, Hawaii, the Upper NW, and are doing their damndest best with Texas.

Before long, we're going to run out of nice places to migrate.

Further proof that most Seattle voters are idiots.
The avalanche has already started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote.
