A new bill to reduce gun violence aims to hit would-be weapons buyers where it hurts — in the wallet.
U.S. Congresswoman Nydia Velazquez is introducing a bill that would slap every gun sale with a $100 tax, and then use the extra money on anti-violence and mental health programs.

I've said for years...the democrat party in America should be treated the same way the Germans treated the Nazi party in Germany after WWII.
nobody is supposed to rape other people and nobody is supposed to attack your hours and nobody is supposed to steal your stuff and nobody is supposed to carjack you and nobody is supposed to SHOOT you....
all those laws are disobeyed....
wanna stop gun violence?.....stop those doing the violence...
Another Mexican congressperson coming up with Marxist legislation. I tell you, the Mexicans in congress are viscerally anti-Second Amendment. I wonder why that is?
they are doing what they did with cigarettes- claiming taxes need to be levied to “Pay for the damage guns do” (”Pay for the health damage Cigarettes do”
and you watch, they will start off ‘small’, so as not to upset too many people, then, like cigarettes, the taxes will climb ridiculously until no one but the rich can afford them
“What if you have 50 or 100 guns and do not even know one is missing until weeks or months later?”
I recently went looking for a particular gun and panicked. It wasn’t with the others. It wasn’t with my shooting stuff. I couldn’t find it anywhere and suspected it had been taken. But, then would they leave several antique but serviceable guns? Perhaps they simply looked too unusual? Perhaps it was taken by a workman who searched my stuff while I was elsewhere on the property and he just took that one?
Then, I was getting ready to travel and had to hide the house gun...I selected the place where I’d previously hidden the missing gun...because I was about to travel.
So, should I have reported it missing? Then, unreported it?
Yah right...money toward mental health. More like money toward every washington bureaucrat ever hatched.
No Nydia law abiding American gun owners don’t need to be penalized for the mental healthcare of a would be chithouse mouse school shooter.
The should slap a $100 tax on the libtards. We know they require mental health help.
It is this kind of crap that makes me want to create a 3D printer system that will allow users to cast the frame of pistols and ARs so that they can build their own ghost guns.
A futile gesture on NoIdea’s part. Never see the light of day. It’ll never even get out of committee.
But... if it has the effect of igniting even MORE gun and ammo purchases by law abiding Americans, I’m all for such foolishness.
I worry about the backlash against the far left fringe. They are evil and they need to be permanently removed from power, but I worry that it could go much farther. Of course, I also worry that failure to go far enough would allow them to seize power again in a decade or two. In the event of a collapse, I will not be helping any liberals in my neighborhood - and I know who they all are. The enemies of humanity can face the natural consequences of their evil for all I care.
Or longer. I have discovered some I forgot I even owned, years after last time I remembered seeing them. Moreover, you only report something "stolen" if you believe it was "stolen" otherwise you are committing the crime of filing a false report. If I didn't witness the crime, how in the h3ll would I know it was stolen and not merely misplaced or loaned out to a buddy or family member?
I must have done a Rip Van Winkle, what amendment gave the Ferengi the right to hold public office in these United States?
First off, I thought Obamacare was going to fix all this (/sarcasm).
Second, the poster children for the putsch should be the people proposing it.
This is right up there with flags planted on Mars and tipping islands over.
Jus post her picture on every gun and the thieves would go away screaming as she is ‘ugly’.
Surprise!
The Singapore solution. Libtards have to go. Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, we don’t care. Pick one.
These idiots just don’t get it - easy access to firearms ownership is possibly the ONLY issue on which grassroots conservatives and liberals alike will agree.
