I've made this page because it does not have any association with the store, and thus can be promoted.

Really? The owner of the Precise shooter "CHOSE NOT TO GO ON CAMERA TO DEFEND HIS RIGHTS" has STARTED THIS THREAD and is trying to imply it can't be promoted? I'm forwarding this to the Seattle Times!

Welcome to the divergence of ethics gentlemen.
Viewpoint 1- I believe that opposing a gun tax is right because it utilizes a loophole to place an undue hardship on gun owners/firearms enthusiasts by singling out a minority group and taxing them unfairly to promote the anti-gun agenda Viewpoint 2- I believe that opposing a gun tax is right because the progressive liberals I support are going to shut down my new gun store Ethically I strongly support an effort to contain and quash this bullshit attempt at taxing firearms enthusiasts. But oh, what is that you say little devil on my shoulder? Someone stands to get what's coming to them? Huh. Personal vendettas aside, I will fight this with the rest of you. But, not through viewpoint 2's facebook page aimed at bolstering his personal agenda. We'll fight this out in the open. And when we win, we'll win for us. Not for a gun store owner who could stand a taste of his own medicine. _________________ Licensed/Bonded/Insured Hardwood Floor Installer/Finisher http://www.hardwoodfloorsnw.com/ |

Frankly, the time and effort would be better spent prepping your State preemption lawsuit against the city.
This will pass the Seattle city council. They have already said that they believe that the state preemption does not apply so the moved forward on it. This tells me they just need to go through the steps before they actually vote. And it is THEY, the Seattle super left council who will be voting. The is like a snow balls chance in hell that they say no to, 1) a tax on a group they hate, 2) on guns too.....its a two-ffer! Better to direct your energy to hooking up with SAF and being prepared to file the preemption lawsuit 2 sec after they pass this BS thing. Also, if I'm not mistaken...the 25/.05 wording has surfaced before...find that and I think we'll find a source of the problem. The second part also needs to be shut down. Thatakes it a civil infraction if your gun is lost or stolden and you don't report it within 24 hours after you discover it. The issue is in the wording of the civil infraction....its up to 500, and the judge can determine if you owe restitution oor compensation to any parties effected. _________________ What is a Waterbouget?

You realize the city and it's gun control supporters are now getting free publicity about the impact of state preemption. There is no way we come out looking good or preemption looks good. We're already in saber rattling mode saying it's unfair and it won't pass. While Seattle says they just want to tax a little bit more to cover what non-gun owners are already covering and to implement interventions to reduce repeat gun violence. They know all they need to do is poke us with a stick enough and someone will say something stupid.
I hate to see this happen, because it'll impact businesses. But it's also a really good set up for a preemption initiative in the near future. Good luck to us all, we're gonna need it. |

This is a perfect setup to show why, in their minds, preemption's bad... They can't do little things, you know, common sense things.. Get preemption repealed then BAM, welcome to Seattlfornia.. |

It always amazes me how we (the silent majority) are 1) Silent on issues that matter; 2) The infighting is the greater issue at times; 3) Gun owners cannot seem to organize an event that shows we are made up of more than the camo/ Rambo fellas.
The lefties have no problem standing up and shouting for their "rights", yet we seem to fall short with a far bigger majority. You even see this in Congress. Are we too gentlemanly? Too polite? Or are we too busy working and supporting our families? Just a few points to ponder. _________________ "To compel a man to furnish funds for the propagation of ideas he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical." - Thomas Jefferson |
