As the housing market values improve, as they have always done, our assessed value will go back up and our property taxes will increase. I say that alone will more than offset the loss of the 1% sales tax. I vote NO.

ReplyAnyone on a fixed income who would vote to increase the tax on essentials is a bit of a fool, IMHO.

ReplyRichard, I am tempted to say 'whatever' but I won't. Feel free to read this link (http://rense.com/general9/gunlaw.htm) and then 'shoot the messenger' if that is your method of discussion. I prefer real time results to academic studies. I remember when we were 16 ars old and you had to be 18 to buy beer. We knew several 18 year olds that could legally buy beer and would then sell it to us. What makes you think that someone that can't pass a background check to buy a gun doesn't know someone that can pass to buy one for them? That is common sense, not an acacemic study.

ReplyI suggest that more cities and towns pass an ordinance that require all homeowners to own and maintain a firearm. We can meet somewere in the middle on what common sense exceptions to the requirement there should be, such as excluding convicted felons, those with strong religious beliefs etc. It sure has worked here in Kennesaw,Ga

Perhaps the Sheriffs are following President Obama's example of what laws to enforce. Here is one, for example.
Washington (CNN) – President Barack Obama says that federal law enforcement agencies have "bigger fish to fry" than prosecuting marijuana users in Colorado and Washington, which voted in November to legalize the recreational use of marijuana.

County Sheriff's are elected in Georgia and if the people in the county are unhappy with him, they can do just that. I suggest that they won't.

How many of those officers were killed or injured by the guns the gun grabbers in DC want to ban? I really don't know, but my guess is ZERO.

I appreciate your well thought out response, however I have lived in Cobb County for four decades and history usually repeats itself. There will be a property tax increase in the near future. You can take that to the bank.
