What will it take to get them to understand "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED" ???? Do they really think that this will stop people from shooting themselves or others just because the bullet is higher priced ? It's NOT a gun or ammo problem, It's a MIND problem!!

Democrats in Washington State are proposing an additional tax for “the privilege of using ammunition” in a bid to decrease gun violence. House Bill 2238, introduced by fifteen state Democrats, was referred to the state’s legislature committee on finance. If passed, the bill would impose a sales tax on ammunition to fund suicide prevention & firearm-related domestic violence programs. "A use tax is levied on every person in this state for the privilege of using ammunition as a consumer at the rate of percent of the selling price," House Bill 2238 read. The bill describes ammunition as “Projectiles with their fuses, propelling charges, or primers designed to be fired from firearms." This new proposed tax would be in addition to the federal, state and local sales and use tax on goods and services. However, it would not apply to sales to state, local, or tribal governments to supply law enforcement agencies. "Washington HN 2238 is a poorly conceived and sloppily drafted piece of work. It’s also politically tone-deaf, as Washington residents from all points on the political spectrum and all corners of the state are rejecting state tax hikes," State Rep. Jim Walsh of the Washington State Republican Party told Fox News Digital. The proposed bill also states that one person is killed by a firearm every 14 hours, and nearly half of all suicides are from firearms.
