California's Controversial Move: A Deep Dive into the New Tax on Guns and Ammo - Target Sports USA

California, often at the forefront of liberal policies, has recently stirred controversy with its implementation of a new excise tax on guns and ammunition. Under Assembly Bill 28, a new 11% tax will apply to retail sales of ammo, guns, and firearm precursor parts in addition to the 7.25% CA...

They need that money to buy votes. Inflation has driven the cost of that up too.

They also plan on taxing you based on you're income for your utility's services. That's right!

"The Golden State’s lawmakers argue that this tax is a necessary step toward curbing gun violence. However, the move has sparked heated debates, with proponents emphasizing public safety and opponents decrying it as an infringement on Second Amendment rights."

How does a tax curb gun violence? This must be another brainchild of Gov Newsom, the originator of the no cash bail in LA County. They said cash bail unjustly affects minorities, people of color. People who sometimes gather in a group and gang loot major stores in LA. There are videos, sometimes 25 or 40 looters. Cover their faces with masks. I wonder why, even if you get arrested, your back on the streets in < 72 hours. No cash bail. They (news) recently had on the news a guy walked out of HD with $16,000 in tools in carts. No one stopped him. They don't stop anyone any more, the threat of physical violence confronting a potential shoplifter. Relies on video and LE response. Newsom has serious thoughts on running for POTUS. Dum party.

11% tax on gun and ammo sales. Yeah that's gonna def hurt the people robbing and stealing. And shooting and murdering people on occasion. You know the ones who steal their firearms anyways. More like a money grab for the state.

On a side note, when Klam Harris was Cali AG, she fought and prevailed for the state to cover all medical costs for CA prison inmates who wanted to change their sex. Required surgery, hormones, counseling, and drug costs.....for prisoners of the state of California.
Now Klam is VPOTUS, next in line if Biden were to stroke out tomorrow. LOL. Digest that info for a while. Even Biden has mentioned/complained at times about the level of engagement of Harris in her job as VPOTUS. Biden appointed Harris as "the border tzar" a couple years ago now. Has she even been to our southern border yet? Visited it, seen first hand what is transpiring down there? Busy days right now, the BP reports 10,000 people crossing the border. 24 hours. Seems like December is a busy month at the border for the last couple years. Come spend Christmas in the US, Joe Biden and Harris welcome them. Free food, clothing, and shelter. We will find you a job too.

They should have hired me. I have a degree in marketing. I would have named it Newsom's Pay to Pee plan.

He (Newsom) is going to force toy stores to sell gender neutral toys.
Does that mean Barbie will now have a penis?
