Time for Gun Shops to MOVE OUT OF Seattle!

The council unanimously approved the measure, adding a $25 tax on firearms sold in the city and a 5-cent tax on each round of ammunition. The legislation also requires gun owners to report lost or stolen firearms within 24 hours.
Council President Tim Burgess noted that a Seattle hospital treated 253 shooting victims last year, costing taxpayers more than $12 million. Lawmakers plan to use the estimated $500,000 the tax would generate annually to offset the costs linked to gun violence and to fund anti-violence programs.
