I will be attacked by those who hate gun control. I know that.

I'll reserve my comments.

[nomad]

Reload your ammo! Is he going to tax primers, powder, and projectiles?

[Brellium]

Taxes on bullets isn't a bad thing, if the funds would be applied to costs associated with fire arms by the government. They were used quite oftain in the past as a state would know something was up if more people started buying swords and other weapons, a sign of unrest. Although I must admit a nickel a bullet is a tad extreame.

Just bought a box of 550 [10% extra, free!] for $9.95.

Add .05 X 500 and it becomes $34.95.

Maybe 5000 22s is a lifetime supply. Then add the .45s. They might collect $250 tax over 50 years on the 22s, and $20 per year from the .45s, and that is from just one person. Multiply that by all the others who would pay such a tax. Obviously this will swell state coffers to an amazing degree. We're talking tens of dollars.

Note how it's never "to control guns"... it's "to protect the children", or in this case, it's "to help the hospitals".

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, as long as I can say it: every gun owner should buy a box of ammo for each gun he owns, every single month of the year.

When the gun-grabbers come, they won't go for the guns, they'll go for the ammo. This jerk is just the harbinger.

[ZULU]

I have a better idea. How about a nickel per pound tax on verbal flatulence. Idiots like Perata could turn out to the goldmine that balances the federal budget.

Seriously, lunatics like this one are a standing threat to the Bill of Rights, and every freedom we enjoy. They would tax into oblivion everything they disagree with.

[HangFire]

Good work gc, thanks for the ping;-)

Ever since Los Angeles passed a law by Councilman Mike Feuer (rhymes with 'der Fuherer') which required purchasers of ammunition to provide a fingerprint, I have purchased all my ammunition on-line. One of my favorites is Cascade Ammunition.

I will never give Mr. Feuer a thumbprint, although I do reserve the right to use another finger.

Ammunition (still) is legal to purchase by phone, fax, internet, e-mail, snail mail, smoke signal, and carrier pigeon. Brought to your door by your friendly UPS man.

To late! I already have a lifetime supply of bullets. Yes, I'm an ammo nut. BLOAT! (Ps...The 2nd ammendment does not say a word about ammo...I've predicted for years that they'll come after the ammo.)

I was going to ask if Perata was the CCW carrying anti-gunner.

I heard the reason he carries is he is afraid he might get roughed up by "gun-nuts" because of his anti-gun stance. Kinda ironic in a scary kind of way. He'll take your guns from you so you are unprotected but he wants one "for protection".

[xm177e2]

Does anyone really believe the gun control crowd wants anything less than a total ban on civilian ownership of firearms?

[68skylark]

Sen. Don Perata/(D) Oakland

I think I've heard of this a-hole before.

Isn't he the one to told a world class target shooter (a teenage girl) that she should move out of the state? (This happened after her .22 target pistol was classified an illegal "assault weapon" because the magazine didn't go inside the handle.)

What a jerk.

--I'd be willing to bet (a box of nickles) , that if any realistically accurate numbers/statistics are kept, that the vast majority of californian shootings are between black and latino and asian gang members. I'd also bet that if those stats were compared to just white people in general in the state, it would be over 5 to 1 discrepancy % per capita.

Of course this is now racist hate speech. Oh well.

Believe me+++++++ The next tax will be on SEX.

""Bullets cause injuries that are expensive to treat and generally speaking, the public is footing the bill."

Solution: STOP treating gang bangers and criminals - or anyone shot in the commission of a crime, unless their family foots the bill.

Please explain why the taxpayers should patch up the bastards shot in the commission of a crime - while probably living off welfare?
