I just got this email: I dont know if its true or not...... wow

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, [url "http://www.senate.gov/You"]http://www.senate.gov/You[/url] 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 is 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 your Social 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.

So I just went to the senate.gov website and this is what I found when I searched "SB-2099":

[url "http://www.senate.gov/reference/common/faq/SB2099.shtml"]http://www.senate.gov/reference/common/faq/SB2099.shtml[/url]

Is it true that . . . Senate Bill SB-2099 will require owners of firearms to pay a $50 charge per gun and list each gun on their federal tax form?
[Image: horiz_content_break.gif]
The answer is no. This Internet rumor states that SB-2099 is legislation currently being considered by the Senate. The bill supposedly requires owners of firearms to list on their 1040 tax return all guns they own and then pay a $50 charge per firearm. There is no such legislation by this name in the 111th Congress.
The facts:

[ul][li]The last bill given the number[url "http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c105:s2099:"] S. 2099[/url] was in the 105th Congress. This bill dealt with federal sentencing guidelines for counterfeiting offenses. [li]Legislation that the Senate is currently working on will be listed on the [url "http://www.senate.gov/pagelayout/legislative/b_three_sections_with_teasers/active_leg_page.htm"]Active Legislation[/url] page or can be searched for on [url "http://thomas.loc.gov/"]Thomas[/url]. For more information about the legislative process or finding bills, please see the [url "http://www.senate.gov/reference/reference_index_subjects/Legislation_and_the_Legislative_Process_vrd.htm"]Legislation VRD page[/url].

If they try to enforce something like that they can kiss my PATUTY.

Macfisher is correct. This particular piece of legislation is from ten years ago during the Clinton presidency. This legislation never made it to the floor for a vote, and expired in at the beginning of 2001.

At this time there is no legislation like this in Congress.

I am sure glad this is not true , I agree with Packfan, they could kiss my butt before I do that.........

I don't know about you, but if the government asks me, I don't own any guns, and every gun that I have purchased in the past with backgrounds checks I have since sold![sly]
[signature]
Your reply couldn't have been any better, exactly what I would say also.....
[signature]
I lost all of mine years ago....maybe they were stolen or something....[angelic]
[signature]
I am glad that this is not true as well. It would have been a bit off the deep end. I feel there would have been a riot and then the Supreme court would have to hear it.
[signature]
Who in their right mind would own guns? Those things are for heathens. [cool]
[signature]
lmao! I also heard that guns kill people. I sure am glad that I don't have any, what would my children think of me? [inline "IMGP0005 (Custom).JPG"]
