Mr. Fife Posted November 13, 2015 at 09:03 PM Share Posted November 13, 2015 at 09:03 PM I jumped the shark, or whatever the term is. I thought that was the vote on the tax instead of on the amendment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregivq Posted November 13, 2015 at 09:13 PM Share Posted November 13, 2015 at 09:13 PM I'm surprised. I shouldn't be but I am. These people are out of their minds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DD123 Posted November 13, 2015 at 09:17 PM Share Posted November 13, 2015 at 09:17 PM I can't wait until they get sued. I hope that it costs the tax payers even more than the last payment from the city of Chicago to the NRA. Perhaps only then would it cause voters to reconsider their choices.

chibooey Posted November 13, 2015 at 09:19 PM Share Posted November 13, 2015 at 09:19 PM I live across the street from John Daley and will remind him again how ridiculous they are being with these taxes. I really believe their intent is to drive the gun shops out of the county, as if that will make a difference in the problematic neighborhood. I actually like John but enough is enough. I can only hope Crook County gets sued again. I really hate politicians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriots & Tyrants Posted November 13, 2015 at 09:38 PM Share Posted November 13, 2015 at 09:38 PM Guess I will be buying all of my ammo online and changing the Billing address for one of my credit cards to my families WI place.

As with everything else, people will simply by in Kane, DuPage, Lake, et al... Too bad about Cabela's though. I buy ammo there, but now cannot.

It still has to be heard by the full board and, so far, isn't on the agenda. The next meeting is 11/18/2015. I suppose it could be added to that.

As has been mentioned before this isn't about revenue or businesses. Look at the people equating law abiding gun owners with drug dealers and murderers. They don't actually want to make revenue from what they consider "blood money" they want to force firearm-related businesses out of the county so they can pat themselves on the back about how they stood up to the "gun lobby" and ran them out of Cook county Sent from my SM-G920P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hipshot Percussion Posted November 14, 2015 at 02:03 AM Share Posted November 14, 2015 at 02:03 AM "Mr. Boyken introduces his proposal as a "gun violence tax". He describes his plan as helping prevent random violence by making it harder to afford these "instruments of death." That's it in a nutshell. This is about making it more difficult than it already is to purchase guns (gun tax) and ammo. This is about gun control, nothing more. It would also be a statement I used in my opening arguments as the plaintiff in a lawsuit. This is retribution against lawful gun owners. Period. More money going to end up in another pro 2A groups coffers... Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
