 Are any of you aware of this going on????

 SB-2099 will require us to put on our 2000 1040 federal tax return form
 all guns that you own or have.It may require fingerprints and a tax of $
 50.00 per gun.

 This bill was introduced on Feb. 24th.  The trick is that this bill will
 not become public knowledge until 30 days  after it is voted into law.

 This bill is an amendment to the Internal Revenue Act of 1986. This
 means that the Finance Committee can pass this bill without the Senate
 voting on it at all.

 The full text of the proposed amendment is on the U.S. Senate
 home page.

 You can find this bill by doing a search by the bill
 number. (SB-2099). I urge everyone to send this to every gun
 owner that you know.
