Just got this today!!!
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, U.S. Senate 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.

+1 do not see it anywhere on http://thomas.loc.gov/
It's not on thomas.gov and it's not on govtrack.us. Sheldon needs to cough up some more info.
It's the surest way to turn million of Americans into tax protesters regardless.

Nothing at govtrack.com....0 bill(s) matched your search SB2099. Its a joke....
Got my butt rung by another site where i posted that info. Guess it came out Sept. 2000 but they are still not to be trusted. Any of them. Feinstien is still working on an anti-gun bill along with that moron obama. This is a tyrannical government. It is our right and responsibility to do away with it. They want to disarm us and take away our 2nd amendment right along with other rights. Letters dont seem to work or e-mails or tea parties they just laugh at us and call us racists. Time for a revolt and maybe they would understand that. When i joined the military i swore to protect this country from ALL enemies foreign and domestic.
