[QUOTE="Kiyot, post: 1956428, member: 627"] This type of stuff has been proposed before and it has just blown my mind. The only people this will absolutely will affect is the lawful side of communities. Sport shooters, profesionals, collectors will be the only ones who this would drastically raises the prices for. And the fact that it would be used for "medical care for gunshot victims" is beyond reason too. Why should I have to pay for something like that when the only time any of my guns would "create" a gunshot victim is when that "victim" was threatening my life and by his own actions deserves it. And in that same regard, I'm sure most of those gunshot victims that this money would go for are bad guys themselves. Is $2.50 per box going to make a difference to the banger that only needs 1 or 2 boxes of ammo for his gat? Nope. Is $2.50 going to make a difference to a spree shooter? No because he knows he'll be caught or killed and won't matter to him to spend that last little bit. The 99.9% that a tax such as this will affect and where the most taxes will be made are the lawful, high volume citizen shooters who have no responsibilities to the "victims" [/QUOTE]
