Check your tax return closely……
Another of the interesting e-mails I have received recently.
I haven’t checked Snopes.com yet, but the url is there so I assume it has been checked out by the author, but at the same time, I wouldn’t just buy everything here unless the links are checked.
Comments are welcome. It is floating on the internet, if you have an opinion on this bill, share with others!

Look what’s on the 2010 tax return. Verified true on Snopes at http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/blairholt.asp
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.
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 is 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:
· It is registered.
· You are fingerprinted..
· You supply a current Driver’s License.
· You supply your Social Security number.
· 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.

Please! Copy and send this out to EVERYONE in the USA , whether you support the right to bear arms or are for gun control. WE ALL SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE!
This is more change you can believe in!
“True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been,
will be, and will not be. Peace is seeing a sunset
and knowing who to thank. The happiest people
don’t necessarily have the best of everything – they
just make the best of everything they have.”
If you follow this link; http://www.opencongress.org/bill/111-h45/show# it clearly states that this bill has a near zero chance of passing.
I thought I should add this, as it is quite an alarming bill for many if it does or did make it into law.
Having just snopesed this myself, I feel the need to point out the snopes link at the top doesn’t really address the whole email. They’ve actually combined two emails here – the tax one is false ( http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/taxreturns.asp ) as SB 2099 is a defunct bill from 10 years ago, that wouldn’t quite have done that anyway. The rest of it ( http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/blairholt.asp ) is _partly_ true (it doesn’t, for instance, allow for home inspections of gun lockups, or physical & mental health evaluations) but has very little likelihood of passing, as noted above.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Many people know much more than I do about things of this nature and I merely put the post here to get the thoughts and ideas from other people.
I think input from those that actually read the bill can provide information as good or better than snopes because very often they have more interest in the actual bill, rather than making money from verifying it.
I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and hope you will return.
