Outrage of the Week

 

Friday, July 22, 2011

 

This week’s outrage comes to us from Baltimore, Maryland, where mayoral candidate Otis Rolley is proposing a $1.00 per bullet tax be levied on all ammunition purchases in the city of Baltimore as part of his “crime plan.”

 

According to a July 19 article appearing on WBALTV.com, Rolley said, "This is not a revenue enhancement tool. It's a 'make it difficult for you to buy bullets in the city' tool." Rolley also stated that the proposed tax would cause a decrease in "random firings that too often happen around holidays." The article additionally notes that Rolley wants to make possession of small amounts of marijuana a summary offense, which would treat the offense more like public drunkenness than a drug crime.

 

Hmm. Tax the law-abiding citizens of the city and make it prohibitively expensive for them to purchase ammunition for self-defense, and reduce penalties for illegal drugs. That’s his idea of a crime plan? That’s outrageous.

what an idiot. although baltimore is a crahole!

I can understand understand reduced penalties for pot, but a one dollar tax per bullet is just ridiculous.

He got that idea from Chris Rock. Not that any of us think it's a good idea mind you. Good comedy bit anyway.

 

 

 

 

 

edit, no idea why it's got spanish captions

LOL, that's funneh

 

I always hate the 12 or so miles through MD to WV. I gotta pack my **** in the trunk, then get it back out and reload at the WV Welcome Center.

 

Funny thing is that MD is VERY gun heavy. And lots of hillbillies, rednecks, and good-ol' sister daddies. Civilians own MGs in MD. Unlike NJ, you could probably push people over the edge in MD and provoke a response.

Fixed that for you.

How much you wanna bet that if it passes, NJ will take notice? Joke won't be so funny then.

 

NJ very much likes to look to neighboring states for suggestions of oppressive laws.

Got a point, but I sure can't see this passing but regardless I buy 99% of my ammo on line and have it shipped being thats normally cheaper and in the next month or max 2 i will be reloading my own anyway.

 

Can you really as an extreme example my order for 5250 rounds of 22LR's that I picked up shipped to my door costing me 160 bucks going up to $5410.00.

Fixed it in my OP, too. lol.

Good lookin out.

If by some chance in hell this were to pass, every town just outside of Baltimore would see an increase in ammo sales. Of course the "decrease" seen in Baltimore would probably be considered a "win".

How many of you guys lived through the NJ AWB as gun owners?

 

Yeah, it'll never happen.

 

Although, I think the WWW has brought a lot of firearms owners together and allowed them to organize and stop some of this crap. A lot more people are informed and active and organizing. Well, except for NJ. OGAM being a shining example. An aircraft carrier with nukes wouldn't help you guys unless you directed fire on your position.
