The Gun Violence and Safe Communities Act, which @davidhogg111 advocated for, would increase federal excise tax rates to 20% on guns and 50% on ammunition up from its current 10% and 11% respective taxes.
So you’re part right. But Hogg wins.

You guys are missing the point. Taxes are a penalty for good people who don’t intend to commit a crime. Guns are used 108k times/yr as defense (at the lowest CDC estimate). So taxes only adversely affects citizens, not criminals.
