Coded Ammunition Bills Present in 18 States
Ammunition Accountability ^

Posted on 12/03/2008 2:24:58 PM PST by Vaak

This is from an e-mail I got. It isn't limited to just Arizona(Arizona stuff's in there because of where I'm at), but 17 other states. So, I figured some of you may find this interesting.

ARIZONA HB2833

Coded Ammunition; State Database

Sponsors:

Martha Garcia (D) – District 13 mgarcia@azleg.gov

Linda Lopez (D) – District 29 llopez@azleg.gov

Manual Alvarez (D) – District 25 malverez@azleg.gov

David Bradley (D) – District 28 dbradley@azleg.gov

Cloves Campbell, Jr. (D) – District 16 clcampbell@azleg.gov

Please contact the legislators above and express your opinion relating to the viability of “coded ammunition” and having a state data base with your information in it!

Far easier to just delete this; but if you act now to head off this foolishness you can save a much bigger fight in the future…

Secondly, please contact the representatives in your home district and encourage to them to vote against HB 2833

Finding your representative is very simple at www.az.leg.gov

Please get involved now! Our ability to protect ourselves will only become more dire if we are complacent.

"When a government is big enough to give you

everything you want, it is big enough to take

everything you have"..........Thomas Jefferson

Remember how the Obamanation said that he wasn't

going to take your guns?

Well, it seems that his minions and allies in the anti-gun

world have no problem with taking your ammo!

The bill that is being pushed in 18 states that requires all ammunition to be encoded by

the manufacturer and a data base of all ammunition sales.

So they will know how much you buy and what calibers.

Nobody can sell any ammunition after June 30, 2009

unless the ammunition is 'coded'.

Any privately held uncoded ammunition must be destroyed

by July 1, 2011. (Including hand-loaded ammo.)

They will also charge a .05 cent tax on every round so

every box of ammo you buy will go up at least $2.50 or more!

If they can deprive you of ammo they do not need to take your guns!

This legislation is currently pending in 18 states:

* Alabama * Arizona * California * Connecticut * Hawaii * Illinois * Indiana * Kentucky * Maryland * Mississippi * Missouri * New Jersey * New York * Pennsylvania * Rhode Island * South Carolina * Tennessee * Washington

OK, this is a real bill.

You can see it's status here...

But it went into committee on 2/21/08 and hasn't come out yet, so I think it's probably intentionally bottled up.

Isn’t it possible to make your own ammunition?

I remember a neighbot who used to do that. He was a gun collector, and found he could save money making his own.

So, is that the date that they are going to come for it??? Stick guns in our faces and search every house?

Nope.

If you're determined to be in breach of the peace and prosperity code, you will be prevented from buying insurance, or renewing your drivers license, or paying taxes on your properties (which will be seized for nonpayment), or receiving medical care, etc. etc. etc Until you comply with the legal requirements of proving beyond a doubt that you do not possess any prohibited materials.

And the onus will be on you to prove your innocence once you are on the governments list of suspects.

There are dozens of ways to enforce citizen disarmament that don't require immediate force.. Just make life unbearable and every citizen will capitulate just to survive.

Even if Napolitano didn’t make it it wouldn’t go through I always thought. The legislature here is too conservative to let it get through. I was mostly posting this as a heads up to those in other states that are considering this idiotic legislation.

You underestimate our resourcefulness.

I beg to differ, it’s you who overestimate the vast majority of citizens and their willingness to stand up against tyranny.

Some of us will, but those few won’t be a teacup in a tidal wave compared to the number who will kneel in submission.

I hate being negative about this, but right now with emperor hussein poised to seize the reins of power, I’m not inclined to think well of the citizens of America.

Even possession of unstamped ammo will be a crime.
going hunting? They can check your magazine for registered bullets under this deal. The lead left in that deer you shot could be submitted to make sure the game kill was with legal ammo. Don’t forget to pay your bullet tax that pays for law enforcement and maintaining the bulllet buyer registry.

The group responsible is trying to amend state laws in 18 states on ammo. gotta fight them fiercely.

Technically, I think it’s a 500% increase in the (now) 11% tax that you mean. That brings it to 55%...still prohibitive, and probably not where they’d stop.

"...whether owned by private citizens or retail outlets, must be disposed.”

Anyone watching the Banglist since the election knows that there won't be any ammo on retailer's shelves. They'll just take it out of the shipping crates and deposit it in the outstretched hands of customers.

For now. Look for more California style legislation making lead all but a controlled substance. Powder, primers will be subject to price increases, availability...remember when they went after powder manufacturers on OSHA pretenses?

Understood but it might be time to break the laws.

I don't either, but remember almost half of America didn't vote for Hussein and that half will use passive resistance if the government goes too far. At some point enough will be enough. Giving the appearance of cooperating while using the tactics of delay, delay, delay is very effective.
