State Representative wants to impose a 50% TAX INCREASE on ammunition. @Jilchrest
About this video
Colion critiques a proposed Connecticut bill that would add a 50% tax on ammunition, introduced by state representatives who compare it to cigarette taxation. He argues the tax would disproportionately burden low-income individuals who need firearms for self-defense, reduce opportunities for safe firearms training, and create black-market opportunities while failing to deter criminals or mass shooters. Colion frames the measure as a revenue scheme and an attempt to restrict Second Amendment rights under the guise of public health policy.
Key takeaways
- Colion argues that high ammunition taxes disproportionately affect poor communities who face higher violence and most need self-defense options
- Colion contends that making ammunition expensive reduces training opportunities, undermining firearms proficiency and safety
- Colion believes the tax is a revenue-generating control measure disguised as public health policy, unlikely to deter criminals or mass shooters
