The school resource officers could be handy for many, many reasons. I don't see why gun buyers should take the hit on this. Maybe some hit, but not the whole cost.

That's my issue with it as well. This is a tax that only affects people who own or will own guns, not people that won't own guns who are the ones screaming for fees, taxes, laws to curtail 2A.
The entire community is who should pay for SRO's, not people who buy guns. Raise the state sales tax half a percent, then everyone is paying for it and that would probably raise more than 22 mil annually.
