The left never tires of dreaming up new ways to undercut rights specifically enshrined in the Constitution… whenever they get in the way of the Dem agenda.
Especially when that right involves guns.
Dems think they’ve finagled a clever new way to come between the citizen and his right to use a gun. It focuses on ammunition.
What good is a gun if you have nothing to shoot from it, right?
That’s the logic behind this new approach we’re seeing in Washington State.
Washington Democrats opened the 2024 legislative session with another assault on gun rights. This time they hope to reclassify ammunition as a “privilege” — one that should be subject to an onerous tax because the one thing they love more than taking away guns is taking away your money.
State Representatives My-Linh Thai and Liz Berry, both Democrats, introduced House Bill 2238. Under the auspices of public safety, claiming access to ammunition is the cause of violence and not their soft-on-crime policies that go easy on criminals (including those who use guns in their crimes), the bill imposes an 11% sales and use tax on ammunition statewide. This would be an additional tax on top of the sales tax and any other tax that may levied when purchasing ammunition. The city of Seattle, for example, imposes a per-round tax.
But the bill also reclassified ammunition, claiming you do not have a right to purchase them as a consumer. Instead, it’s labeled a “privilege.” The legislation creates a new section in pre-existing law that reads, “A use tax is levied on every person in this state for the privilege of using ammunition as a consumer at the rate of 11% of the selling price.” — MyNorthWest
It’s not that the left don’t UNDERSTAND ‘shall not be infringed’…
They just don’t care that it’s in the Constitution.

I bet you haven’t heard these read, prayed, or sung in church against our formidable enemies — and therein lies the Church’s problem. We’re not using the spiritual weapons God gave us to waylay the powers of darkness. It might be time to dust them off and offer ‘em up if you’re truly concerned about the state of Christ’s Church and of our nation.
Also included in this book, <a href=”https://www.amazon.com/dp/1618082078?psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDp”>Psalms of War</a>, are reproductions of the author’s original art from his Biblical Badass Series of oil paintings.
This is a great gift for the prayer warriors. Real. Raw. Relevant.
