I saw this on the news early this morning and am still speechless.

What I hear is - Budget deficit, let's tax ammo.
Wait, What?
More tax on a round of .22lr than the round costs?????????

Just something else isn't it? It never seems to amaze me what comes out of that city.

I remember when they were talking about raising the sales tax to 11% an alderman saying we'll keep raising the rate until it effects/slows the economy.

Talk about a "wait what?" moment. lol
