    A harassment tax.

    This on other hand isn't a bad idea.
    City Council President Tim Burgess has also proposed a new law that would require mandatory reporting of lost or stolen firearms to the Seattle Police Department.

    People don't report lost or stolen guns? Seems FS to not report that. You can't get insurance to cover a replacement without the police report and if something registered to you gets stolen and used in a crime I'd think the cops would probably pay a visit assuming you may have been involved.

    If stolen, yes. If lost, not the case.

    Sure, they always want the tax but, what about the gun violence?

    Seattle is full of idiot socialists. News at 11.

    Went to the Mariners game yesterday (side note: I hate my money) and saw a guy wearing a "I'm ready for Bernie" t-shirt.

    If Seattle wasn't full of pussified socialists, they'd secede.
    Secede? The fuck? Seattle is all about the nanny state that is becoming so popular nationwide, leading the way in fact. Far too much of the nation is in lockstep.

    Take a hot topic like gun control, and slogan gun violence victims to get retarded citizens to willingly give them more money. The members of the Seattle City Council are geniuses, plain and simple.

    I worked part time at a gun store in Lake City to help put myself through UW (spending money for hookers and blow). Years later the owner had to close up shop because he couldn't afford the insurance and take the local government harassment. Cool story, I know. Fuck Seattle. The people that were too stupid to move deserve what they get. Like rainbow crosswalks.
    Truer words have never been spoken, I don't think it's coincidence that most HHBs have left seattle.

    But how is Seattle the most pussified city in America?
