Gun owners.... Look what's on the 2010 tax return....

If you have a gun, I hope it isn't registered!

It begins... More Freedom gone.... The right to protect yourself and your family gone! Now ALL GUNS must be listed on your next (2010) tax return!

Senate Bill SB-2099 will require us to put on our 2009 1040 federal tax form all guns that you have or own. It will require fingerprints and a tax of $50 per gun. This bill was introduced on February 24, 2009, by the Obama staff. BUT, this bill will only become public knowledge 30 days after the new law becomes effective! This is an amendment to the Internal Revenue Act of 1986. This means that the Finance Committee has passed this without the Senate voting on it at all. Trust Obama? You must be kidding!

The full text of the IRS amendment is on the U.S. Senate homepage: 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.

Text of H.R.45 as Introduced in House: Blair Holt's Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act of 2009: www.opencongress.org/bill/111-h45/text
Obama's 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 begun... Whatever Obama's "Secret Master Plan" is... This is just the 'tip of the iceberg!'

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 as a 'minor' IRS revision, and, as usual, the 'political' lawmakers did not read this bill before signing and approving it!

To find out about this - go to any government website and type in HR 45 or Goggle 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: 1) It is registered 2) You are fingerprinted 3) You supply a current Driver's License 4) You supply your Social Security number 5) 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 years 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..

Hey Jim, I totally respect your right to speak freely, but I ask everyone: please, please don't post this kind of stuff here. This site is one of the last refuges from the polarizing politics that invade every other medium and, really, every aspect of society. Can't we just keep this about buses and use other sites for our political views and commments? There are hundreds of other sites where we can share our political views, but only one place that we can share information about Prevosts. My humble request. Let the flaming begin.

Way to go Jim. According to our local representative, this is indeed in the works. So typical of the current crop of politicians. Remember Miss Pelosi 's quote from the speakers podium, "we have to vote on the bill so we will know what is in it " ? And our current secretary of state during her European tour this past summer. " We tax everything" . This proposed HR 45 has already come to our cpa. This seems to be what I have come to expect from the liberal left coast. Hopefully, this can be defeated in the same fashion as the horrible cap and trade bill. With a little effort on the part of voters wemay even toss out the so called health care monstrosity.

I recieve many e-mails like this thru-out the year. No way of knowing whats true and whats make believe. Usually followed by a request to pass it on to 5 or more people. People have to understand the internet is full of a lot of crap. Even if iformation is forward from a freind or acquaintance does'nt make it true . It s best just to ignore this stuff unless you have all the time in the world to do the research to verify the claim .

A simple resolution to the queries. Call/write your Congressional Representative and/or your US Senators. Simple.

I tend to check this stuff on snopes when I get it and the funny thing is that the snopes link in the original post actually says that the information is only "partly true" and is misleading, while a search on their site basically reveals that it's a sham: http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/taxreturns.asp

My wife often gets caught up in this stuff and forwards stuff to me and her friends. She doesn't understand why people would take the time to concoct elaborate stories and send them out to a bunch of people with instructions to send the info on to even more people. There is always some story that appeals to somebody's personal interests. I told her it's like the internet age chain letter -- it simply clogs the system and someone somewhere gets to take pride in their work if it becomes newsworthy, but that in the end, I don't understand it either...:confused:
