The threat of such a tax serving as a role model for other politicians to impose is not an idle one. Consider the following:

Seattle Gun and Ammunition Tax: On Jan. 1, 2016, Seattle’s $25 per gun tax took effect, as did a two cent to five cent tax per round of ammunition. The new taxes have already forced at least one major gun dealer to leave the city.

Cook County, Ill. Gun and Ammunition Tax: On June 1, 2016, Cook County’s new ammunition tax takes effect, at a rate of one cent to five cents per round of ammunition. The ammo tax comes on top of the existing gun tax regime of $25 per gun.

Hillary Clinton’s 25% Gun Tax Endorsement: In passionate testimony to the Senate Finance Committee in 1993, Hillary Clinton gave her strong personal endorsement to a new national 25% sales tax on guns and endorsed a steep increase in the gun dealer fee, to $2,500. "I am speaking personally, but I feel very strongly about that,” said Clinton at the conclusion of her endorsement.

“The Left is now seeking to tax guns out of existence,” said Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform. “The Second Amendment makes it difficult to legally ban guns, but Hillary has led the way to explaining you can achieve the same thing with high taxes.”

In newly released footage from Americans for Tax Reform, Clinton is shown nodding enthusiastically as she endorsed the 25% gun tax and as legal gun dealers were described as “purveyors of violence.”

This has always been their back up plan to get around the 2nd amendment.  First plan is to abolish 2nd Amendment. If this fails Part 2 is make laws that compromise the 2nd.  If this fails then tax guns out of existance, except for the rich and politicans of course.  If all this fails then just throw crap against the wall until something sticks.

At some point, taxes on firearms (or ammo) becomes an infringement, prohibited by the still existing 2d Amend.

Sales tax is one thing, 25% is another thing.

Like everything else she has to say........It is a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.   Macbeth Act 5, scene 5, 19–28

Let those advocating these taxes relinquish their city/state/federal armed bodyguards to set an example.

Until then it's just more laughable dem/lib/prog hypocrisy.

But not for the willingly ignorant who will slack jawed nod wisely.

  Taxing the sale of firearms punishes people with lessor means.

  Why don't they just make it illegal for the poor to own guns!!

The 2nd will remain.

However, if Hillary gets elected, and gets to replace 2 or 3 Supremes, the 2nd will be "judged" to only mean the military is entitled to arms.  States and cities will be allowed to pass very restrictive regulations, etc.

I believe that is how the Progressives will shrink the meaning of the 2nd, but making it as useless as tits on a boar.  They are there, but are useless.

The operative words in the second amendment are "shall not be infringed"! That, to me doesn't mean a little bit of infringement is okay....my2cents
