New York Democrats unveiled their latest public safety innovation this week: an 11 percent “sin tax” on firearms and ammunition designed to discourage citizens from defending themselves while encouraging the state to finally locate its missing tax revenue, sources have confirmed
Modeled after California’s Gavin Newsom’s hit program “Tax It Until It Behaves,” the proposal—now dubbed:
Sin Tax: Broadway Edition—promises higher prices, longer forms, and the comforting knowledge that the only people being regulated are the ones already following the law.
State officials reassured the public that criminals will not be impacted in any way, largely because criminals have continued their long-standing policy of not filling out paperwork, not paying taxes, and not participating in the legal retail system.
“We’ve reviewed the data,” one lawmaker said.
“Not a single criminal has ever paused mid-crime to ask about sales tax.”
Under the plan, lawful gun owners will pay more, register more, and apologize more, while repeat offenders will continue receiving what sources described as a “firmly worded suggestion to maybe reflect on their choices.”
Several judges reportedly confirmed they are prepared to issue strong verbal discouragement, followed by immediate release and a light snack.
Democrats insisted the policy is about fairness, noting it’s only right that working Americans fund the system, absorb the costs, and accept moral blame for wanting to protect what they own.
As of press time, lawmakers were drafting an additional surcharge on common sense after discovering it remains stubbornly widespread and largely untaxed.
Isn’t this what Communists do? Take away all means of protection against the authorities in control. That’s how the Hitler regime was able to exterminate millions of Jewish people, that’s how China can control its populace, that’s how Iran can hang and execute protestors. That’s still why Iranians still can’t overthrow the regime without help. Mandami knows exactly what he’s doing. Disarm the public and turn NYC into another city like London = Islamic state that Shari Law rules not US Constitution.
I’d like to feel sorry for Blue State residents, but they get what they voted for, and deserve to be punished for their stupidity. I do feel sorry for the conservative minorities in those states that are unable to leave for whatever reason, and have to suffer the consequences of the progressive majority stupidity.
NY state is the party of democrats assholes the East Coast Cesspool of the United States Of America. democrats destroyed one of the leading states and now became a Cesspool of democrats with the most stupidest government leaders ever to hold office. Hochul and Mamdani are destroying our state and they need to be removed immediately. The big apple has turned into a rotten core because of democrats rotten leadership.
Look at what FDR started and Johnson cranked up higher. Will it ever end? (No!) We are too far down the slippery slope to stop this. Trump might slow it down, but way too many are into cheating and looting and playing the system that it’s too late! (Sad face emoji)
