Democrat Running For Florida Governor Wants To Tax Ammunition To “Fund School Safety”

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Chris King rolled out a bold gun violence prevention plan Friday that would create a fund designated to research, school safety and intervention programs.
The “Every Kid Fund” for Gun Violence Prevention would have three sources, King said during a roundtable discussion at Allendale United Methodist Church: sales tax revenue from gun and ammunition purchases, a 6 percent “safety fee” on the sale of ammunition, and revenue generated from aspects of King’s criminal justice reform plan.
Straight out of the Bloomberg / Everytown / Brady Center playbook.

“King, disturbed by the lack of action after the Pulse Nightclub shooting in 2016, credited reforms that have been passed this year not to the governor and Legislature but to politically savvy Stoneman Douglas students.”
“Politically savvy” and “high school students” are mutually exclusive terms. The correct terminology is “politically manipulated” and “high school students.”
