NOTE: THIS IS NOT A TAX ON NEW GUN PURCHASES, BUT ON GUNS YOU ALREADY OWN!...................

[Red Badger]

PING!.................

I ain’t paying shit and I’m not alone

[rigelkentaurus]

Gun registration? I don’t recognize that as constitutional or something that I would do, even if I did have any covered weapons.

[Sgt_Schultze]

Guns = 2nd Amendment
Speech = 1st Amendment

Taxing guns = taxing speech

[V_TWIN]

Lost all my weapons in a tragic boating accident

This is a perfect example of where State Nullification could apply.

Imagine if any state simply said: sorry, Fed.gov. We are not collecting any tax on guns. That is unconstitutional. Our state will not enforce it, nor will we allow Fed.gov to enforce it within our state.

Thank God we have a conservative leaning supreme court. Thank you Mr. President.

[Red Badger]

They would simply seize your bank accounts and garnish your wages.......................

[Red Badger]

You too?................. Lost my boat, too..............

[clearcarbon]

This will definitely help black market gun sales.

[Mouton]

he proposal would require owners to pay a $200 tax stamp for each item.

Not one sou. Bedet and the dems go GFTs

[confederatecarpetbag]

Two words: Gray Market.

Thank god for the underground Web. Gun sales there are going to soar. Install the Tails OS on a flash drive, run it behind Tor browser and get all the guns you ever want without leaving a trace of Internet fingerprint. They can’t tax what they can’t find, and they can’t find it if there is no trail.

They'd take it right out of your bank account.

Somehow I don't think BofA, Wells Fargo, Chase, etc, etc will fight the federal government.

[KC_Lion]

This would be bad news.

IF hadn't lost my AR......

[Nateman]

He has not won yet and he is already slipping on the jack boots. Will there be a thought crime tax too?

[right way right]

We cannot allow this guy to sit at President Trumps desk.

[mikeus_maximus]

Slow down the panic. It’s an idea that is impossible to enforce. No one is going to self report. This is pure theater for the lefty loonies. IF, and that’s a big IF, such a bill was even able to make it out of Congress, it would have to get past the Supreme Court. With the current configuration that now includes Amy, it wouldn’t. Breathe deep.

[Tucsonican]

A scheme like this would absolutely be challenged and, if the underlying case is constructed correctly, could completely undo the NFA.

Karnak sees a rash of boating mishaps. Or not.
