The total cost of Propsition H, the attempt by the Board of Supervisors to infringe the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms, was nearly $800,000 of taxpayer money.
According to the NRA press release:
The City of San Francisco has paid $380,000 to the National Rifle Association (NRA) as reimbursement for legal fees incurred while striking down Proposition H, passed by San Francisco voters in November 2005... Combined with more than $200,000 in fees paid to City lawyers defending the ordinance and an equal value of lawyers time donated to the City for the unsuccessful defense of this case, the total costs to City taxpayers in defending against Proposition H, a civilian disarmament attempt, approaches $800,000.
Your taxpayer dollars at work, indeed!
