It will be considered a violation as severe as owning a machine gun.

Words have meaning. It is, as you probably know, not illegal to own a properly licensed machine gun.

It requires destruction or surrender of your existing ammunition inventory. No compensation. For many, this could be thousands of dollars of personal property.
Taxing each round “not bad”? You’re a fool if you believe that.”

Not just “taxing” of each round.
Your purchase must be recorded, with all your information, and each group of serial numbers tagged to your purchase.

If some clerk makes an error, and a crime scene shows a serilized bullet that comes back to you and you were not involved—Good Luck getting yourself out of that!!!!

Oh please, this will never happen and if they try it it will son be past history. I’ve seen pictures and heard about the stockpiles many of these gun owners have, they aren’t giving it up without compensation. They have thousands of dollars into it.

This year’s regulatory change over is the Digital TV crap.

Last night, the CBS station out of Reno could not transmit properly— I kept trying to watch CSI for 2 hours.
Broken up video—audio that sounded like a cell phone going thru tunnels.
This morning they are apparently completely off the air with their digital signal- my TV won’t even pick up a signal on a scan.

How easy will it be for terrorists to knock all TV off the air after Feb 17???
Just asking..

I might have jumped the gun no pun intended. I got this from the NRA page on Team Sarah.
I went to snopes and they said it is undetermined. http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/ammunition.asp


Do Not Trust Snopes! They Have A Leftist Agenda. When it comes to Politics, their Agenda is more important than the truth.

I just read through the sample legislation at the link, and, although it is a dumb, expensive idea, I don’t see that it would outlaw hand loading. It would require that you load the new, “encoded” bullets, though.”

A. they won’t allow encoded bullets to be sold to reloaders...

B. They want to know exactly who has ammo and where. If a reloader does some work for someone else, the “encoded” bullets are going to be tagged to the reloader.

All a tangled mess, which is exactly what the Liberals always want.

???

Perhaps you mean that knowing their agenda will reveal the truth?

Lots of outdoor ranges have no personnel there to monitor anything.
That makes it legal for them to CLOSE those ranges, eh???

TV is a luxury. If the terrorists take it off the air, I won't notice for a week. I'm sure there will be plenty of wailing and gnashing of teeth from those addicted to the tube.

TOo some, TV is a luxury—to many it is their only link with the outside world. It is the source of all their news- disaster information, etc. There are millions of people in the USA who DO NOT live in the cities. Even at that, city dwellers depend on the TV for information, and would be at a disadvantage without that information.

How much longer before we either forget the intrusion, or finally end it?

Answer: When they come for our guns.
