San Jose To Tax Gun Owners
This is really fucking stupid, because:
-It completely ignores the problem of gun violence.
-It’s going to lead - almost immediately - to selective enforcement.
-It is putting a tax on a Constitutionally enumerated right.
-And most of all, the city council have to KNOW it isn’t going to survive legal challenges.
Idiots.

Quote:San Jose has become the first US city to require gun owners to cover the cost of gun violence.
The move comes after the May mass shooting at a transit yard in the city that left nine people dead.
The move was approved by the city council this week and will require every gun owner to buy liability insurance and pay an annual fee for gun-related emergency responses.
