Connecticut Democrat Introduces Gun Confiscation Bill To Congress H.R. 226
Government Slaves ^ | 1/17/2013 | Kurt Nimmo

On January 13, 2013, H.R. 226 was introduced in the House of Representatives by Connecticut Democrat Rep. Rosa DeLauro.

The bill will amend the 1986 IRS code and allow a credit if taxpayers “surrender” their guns to the government.

Cited as the “Support Assault Firearms Elimination and Reduction for our Streets Act,” the proposed legislation represents another effort to convince citizens that they must voluntarily turn in their guns as a civic duty and to do their part to reduce “gun violence” and protect children, as Obama said yesterday.

The bill is yet more evidence that federal and state governments are now pulling out all stops short of door-to-door confiscation in their coordinated effort to disarm the American people.

Strikingly honest language included in the legislation specifies that the bill is part of the government’s “program to reduce the number of privately owned weapons,” in short, a program to disarm the American people.

The bill contains an exhaustive list of so-called “assault weapons” that will garner a $2,000 tax credit, including the much demonized Bushmaster AR-15 allegedly used in the Newtown Sandy Hook massacre.

The bill was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means on January 14, 2013.

The inclusion of the IRS in the government’s attempt to grab guns is especially foreboding considering its effort to act as a Obamacare compliance enforcer. In July, we reported on a revelation made by Texas Republican Rep. Kevin Brady that the tax agency planned to hire up to 16,500 new agents.

American taxpayers must reject such cynical enticements and stand together and support the Second Amendment against all attacks by Obama and Congress.

The latest foray against the Second Amendment and the founding principles of the republic commenced soon after the Sandy Hook incident on December 15 when California Democrat senatorDianne Feinstein exploited the tragedy to call for an attack on America’s “gun culture.”

“I hope and trust that in the next session of Congress there will be sustained and thoughtful debate about America’s gun culture and our responsibility to prevent more loss of life,” Feinstein said. “I will do another assault weapons ban.”

New York governor Andrew Cuomo jumped on the anti-Second Amendment bandwagon a few days later, on December 21, and proposed gun confiscation in the state. “Confiscation could be an option. Mandatory sale to the state could be an option,” Cuomo said. He was egged on by notorious gun-grabber advocate and New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg who also demanded Obama use unconstitutional executive actions against the Second Amendment.

On December 30, Feinstein said America needs to “bite the bullet” and restrict the gun rights of Americans following comments by president Obama that he would support draconian legislation aimed at the Second Amendment.

Over the next two weeks, the establishment media launched an intense anti-Second Amendment campaign and produced corporate polls in favor of “common sense” gun bans. Alex Jones appeared on the Piers Morgan Show and a flurry of pro and con pundits and commentators debated the finer points of stripping Americans of their right to own firearms.

On December 16, Obama and Joe Biden went on national television accompanied by a gaggle of children and pushed the federal government’s anti-Second Amendment agenda. Obama brazenly signed a number of unconstitutional executive actions during the performance instructing the government to roll back the Second Amendment.

Rosa DeLauro is an idiot and that will never change.Now if a director ever decides to remake the Wizard Of OZ he has a Prime candidate for the Wicked Witch of the West.

“...she didn’t get hit with the ugly stick, the ugly tree fell on her...”

Or as my Grandfather would say, “If she joined the Miss America Pageant, she’d lose her citizenship.”

“The IRS was already the enemy. Now they are the target.”

Yes sir.

Maybe they should bring this one up in the House and we can see which Dems stand with the IRS and big government over the people. If we do have civil strife, IRS agents, auditors and IT staff will be prime targets out of necessity.

The arrogant beotch Feinstein is already the Wicked Witch of the West.

Rosa Achille Lauro is the Wicked Witch of the East, after the house fell on her. Would you believe she is married?

They think they have only to wave their gnarly wrinkled hands and the culture will magically change. Just like Janet Reno who said AFTER Waco, “America’s long love affair with the gun is over.”

What is it about ugly women & gun control? OTOH, I’ve seen some real hotties at gun shows.

Man...if they ever do a re-make of the “Wizard of Oz”, she is the perfect candidate for the moonbat monkey-flying wicked witch. All she needs is a pointy hat and a broom.

Wow, she looks like a character from a Dickens novel.

I’m guessing that even if passed, this little IRS incentive will bring in less than 1000 guns nationwide.
