Well both are bad, if that idiocy passed in Washington there will be California legislators drooling at the mouth to pass it there. Just imagine in the mind of a liberal, a chance to punish gun owners AND, pass a brand new tax all in one. That's a liberals ultimate wet dream.

You know what's funny? Just the talk about this will sell more guns and ammo, I bet gun stores in Seattle are already seeing an increase in business. Those idiots don't realize that they are the cause of the increase in guns and ammo sales.

^ you're probably right.

from what i read it says seattle city council,so even if it passes all they have to do is go to a different city/county and buy everything.

Yes, and if everyone goes elsewhere to buy their stuff, the City Council has just put all the gun shops in town out of business. Mission accomplished.

That and it accomplishes nothing else except maybe loss of sales tax on every box of ammo sold ?

Typical liberal stunt.

Except it would be funny if every gun shop in Seattle (I wonder how many there are - I would guess not many given the obvious attitude toward such legitimate businesses in that town) moved to storefronts that were, say, five feet (or the closest they could get, anyhow) outside of Seattle's jurisdiction.

That would be my play.  Look at how the lottery here was played before legalizing it in TN, all around the border there were places to buy the lottery tickets.
