SAF To Pete Holmes: "Tax Pot Sales Like You Want To Tax Firearms"
“If Seattle officials really think that criminals are going to buy their guns at gun stores and pay a tax, they’re crazy, or maybe they’ve just been smoking a few too many doobies.”
BELLEVUE, WA – Responding to statements made by Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes Thursday to KING 5 News that the so-called “gun violence tax” is “not too drastic,” Alan Gottlieb, founder of the Second Amendment Foundation – which is suing the city over the tax – suggested that Holmes should apply that same principle to legalized marijuana sales in the city.
