Ammunition Accountability Act

[rogue_yj]

The 2008 Legislative session has begun, and the Ammunition Accountability Act is being introduced across the country. Below is a list of states where legislation has already been introduced:

Alabama, Arizona, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri , New Jersey , New York , Pennsylvania , Rhode Island , South Carolina , Tennessee , and Washington

Remember how Obama said that he wasn't going to take your guns? Well, it seems that his minions and allies in the anti-gun world have no problem with taking your ammo!

The bill that is being pushed in 18 states (including Illinois and Indiana ) requires all ammunition to be encoded by the manufacture a data base of all ammunition sales. So they will know how much you buy and what calibers. Nobody can sell any ammunition after June 30, 2009 unless the ammunition is coded.

Any privately held uncoded ammunition must be destroyed by July 1, 2011. (Including handloaded ammo.) They will also charge a .05 cent tax on every round so every box of ammo you buy will go up at least $2.50 or more! If they can deprive you of ammo they do not need to take your gun!

Hopefully the NRA has enough money to battle this crap. The tax part makes me just as mad as the tracking of who buys what ammo and how much. That's how they'll sell it - as an income generator. It's 1/2 cent per round .... to start. After they get it passed it'll be just like any other taxable item and they'll increase that amount as a way to get more tax income. vomit

[BJ_Richardson]

yes, then knifes, clubs, and maybe rocks.

people have always found a way to kill people. that will not change....ever.

The only way to keep people from killing people is to take people away. Are they going to make us register our fists now? I've seen a few people who's fists are more dangerous than some guns out there.

I e-mailed them and told them what I thought of their act. At least AR is not on the list.
