Mayor Plans to Seize Guns of Citizens
Who Haven't Paid 'Fee' to Exercise Their
2nd Amendment Rights

Original Article

A California city has approved a law forcing gun owners to have insurance and pay an annual $25 fee. “Certainly, the Second Amendment protects every citizen’s right to own a gun. It does not require taxpayers to subsidize that right,” Democratic San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo said, according to CNN. Gun owners are also required under the law to have insurance. The law, which received its first approval in January, will need approval on a second reading this month before it can go on the books, taking effect in August. Even before the second reading, a lawsuit has been filed to block the process.

Comments:

Making lawful gun owners pay for criminal acts of others which they have elected not to stop
Consider this: the state is forcing payment for you to engage in protected acts. If this survives they will make us pay for our 1st Amendment and others.

Obviously the long term plan here is to eliminate gun ownership unless, of course, you are a criminal with an unregistered gun. The $25 fee will grow quickly until it is mostly unaffordable. Clearly unconstitutional. I’m sure other liberal cities are watching this one closely.

When they figure out that they are hurting single women and the low income black women who have guns for protection, they might change their mind. I say might, because I don't believe they care anymore how many kids and women they endanger.

I shouldn't be required to subsidize the right of people to illegally invade our country, have anchor babies, or have welfare babies! I shouldn't be required to pay for medical care for dope heads. I shouldn't have to pay to protect a foreign countries borders, or build their border walls. I shouldn't have to protect another countries pipelines when we can't have one. I shouldn't have to subsidize windmills, solar farms and electric cars.And I definently shouldn't have to pay for abortions. The list could go on forever.

Who came up with this hare brain policy? "It's for the people!" Give me a break! The Mayor might think this is for the "good" but he hasn't thought of the unintended consequences. Like criminals not paying the tax, stealing guns, committing crimes etc. What kind of insurance is the City forcing gun owners into? Who gets the money? Does the dead perp of a crime get the money from this insurance?

This should be taken as a violation of civil rights under the Civil Rights act of 1964. (At least I think it was 1964.) Criminal penalties accrue for such violations.

Sam, can't you read? SHALL... NOT... BE..INFRINGED... Infringed is a word, you know, with distinct and narrow meanings. It's a pity there isn't some immediate penalty for politicians who violate the Constitution - but the Democrats have such a history of using any legal document to say the opposite of what it means, that I suppose it's for the best.

The Reuters news agency has exposed one small corner of the federal government’s extraction of debt-trapped child workers from poor countries for use in low-wage, low-tech, dangerous workplaces. From Enterprise, Alabama, the news agency reported on a teenager who was delivered by federal officials to an Alabama home close to a chicken processing company: At age 16, when most kids in the United States are halfway through high school, Amelia Domingo found herself working on chicken processing machines in this farm town and deep in debt to loan sharks in her native Guatemala.

Sometimes, the best thing a politician can do is to put the shovel down when they are caught in a compromising position. Stacey Abrams must not be aware of that adage. As RedState reported previously, Abrams decided it’d be a great idea to post a picture of herself maskless while surrounded by masked children. The issue with that is obvious. Children are at less risk from COVID-19 than fully vaccinated and boosted adults. Because of that, other countries long ago stopped masking young children, if they ever did, because it’s such a pointless, ineffective, and damaging practice. That makes it especially egregious when some politician ditches the mask at a school,

It’s to the point of absurdity, the ways in which the leftist media tries to destroy Republicans. While senators and congressmen definitely have targets on their backs from the press, governors are where the majority of their fire not directed at anyone named Trump has been trained. Gregg Abbott, Kristi Noem, and the main target of the left’s anger and hatred: Ron DeSantis. It makes sense that those Governors would be targets, Texas and Florida are huge states, and Noem is a smart, attractive, conservative woman.

The seizure of the firearms occurred earlier this month. Lancaster Online indicates the ATF’s action revolved around the farmer, Reuben King, allegedly selling firearms without a license. King admitted that he had sold some firearms, but stressed that they were mostly long guns that other Amish could use for hunting. He noted that he sold some to non-Amish too.

They are a versatile fashion accessory and a staple in every woman's wardrobe. But now researchers say wearing ladies tights on your face could slash your risk of getting Covid. One of the criticisms aimed at commonly worn face coverings is that they do not fit tightly enough to significantly block viral particles from being inhaled or exhaled. As part of a new study, Cambridge University experts reviewed a variety of DIY hacks people have used to make masks fit better, including using rubber bands or tape. Curiously, they found the most effective tactic was to wrap pantyhose around the bottom half of the face—on top of a mask.

The Biden administration is set to fund the distribution of crack pipes to drug addicts as part of its plan to advance "racial equity." The $30 million grant program, which closed applications Monday and will begin in May, will provide funds to nonprofits and local governments to help make drug use safer for addicts. Included in the grant, which is overseen by the Department of Health and Human Services, are funds for "smoking kits/supplies." A spokesman for the agency told the Washington Free Beacon that these kits will provide pipes for users to smoke crack cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, and "any illicit substance."
