Pay Attention Gun Owners and Hunters

[spamby]

Don't know how true this is, hoping someone on here who has researched this will let me know.





Pay Attention Gun Owners and Hunters



Senate Bill SB-2099 will require us to put on our 2009 1040 federal tax form all
guns that you have or own. It may require fingerprints and a tax of $50 per gun.
This bill was introduced on Feb.. 24. This bill will become public knowledge 30
days after it is voted into law. This is an amendment to the Internal Revenue
Act of 1986. This means that the Finance Committee can pass this without the
Senate voting on it at all.
The full text of the proposed amendment is on the U.S. Senate homepage,
http://www.senate.gov/ <http://www.senate.gov/> You can find the bill by doing
a search by the bill number, SB-2099.



You know who to call; I strongly suggest you do. Please send a copy of this
e-mail to every gun owner you know.

Congress & osama are now starting on the firearms confiscation bill. If it
passes, gun owners will become criminals if you don't fully comply.

It has started. Very Important for you to be aware of a new bill HR 45
introduced into the House. This is the Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of
Sale Act of 2009. Even gun shop owners didn't know about this because the
government is trying to fly it under the radar.

To find out about this - go to any government website and type in HR 45 or
Google HR 45 Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of Sales Act of 2009. You
will get all the information.

Basically this would make it illegal to own a firearm - any rifle with a clip or
ANY pistol unless:

-It is registered -You are fingerprinted -You supply a current Driver's License
-You supply yourSocial Security # -You will submit to a physical & mental
evaluation at any time of their choosing -Each update - change or ownership
through private or public sale must be reported and costs $25 - Failure to do
so you automatically lose the right to own a firearm and are subject up to a
year in jail. -There is a child provision clause on page 16 section 305 stating
a child-access provision. Gun must be locked and inaccessible to any child under
18. -They would have the right to come and inspect that you are storing your gun
safely away from accessibility to children and fine is punishable for up to 5
yrs. in prison.

If you think this is a joke - go to the website and take your pick of many
options to read this. It is long and lengthy. But, more and more people are
becoming aware of this. Pass the word along. Any hunters in your family pass
this along.

This is just a "termite" approach to complete confiscation of guns and disarming
of our society to the point we have no defense - chip away a little here and
there until the goal is accomplished before anyone realizes it.

This is one to act on whether you own a gun or not.

If you take my gun, only the criminal will have one to use against me. HR 45
only makes me/us less safe.

All good, I went thru this some months back, no harm no foul. Lol, read the secret service camera and you'll understand.

This one has been making the runds for several years now. Come on guys when you see something like this do some research before you propagate it.

Like I said I wasn't sure thats why I asked. I didn't propagate this, I was looking for answers. I'm not great at finding answers for all emails.

 

[Roadking Larry]

Snopes.com for general stuff is fairly accurate. For alleged pending legislation go to http://thomas.loc.gov/, pretty much the definitive source for all things legislative.

I got a call from the NRA looking for money. The guy used the Blair Holt bill as ammunition. I like the NRA, but I don't like them using scare tactics. We all know that the Blair Holt bill has no chance in hell of passing, it does not have a single co-sponsor and will die in committee just like the last once this same guy introduced.

That said, I am always leary of any attempt to limit our rights.
