ALERT Missouri Ammunition serialization/registration bill to be heard MONDAY!

imported post

Rcvd from the NRA-ILA:

On Monday, March 3, the Missouri Senate Judiciary Committee will likely consider Senate Bill 1200, authored by gun-ban radical State Senator Joan Bray (D-24).

SB1200 would require that by 2009, only "coded" ammunition could be legally sold in Missouri. Encoded ammunition would be registered to the purchaser and would include the date of transaction, the purchaser's name, date of birth, driver's license number, and the serial number of the ammunition. Moreover, the database in which the coded ammunition information would be stored would be created by a new ammunition tax applied to each round of ammunition sold.

Please contact the members of the Senate Judiciary Committee TODAY[/i] and strongly encourage them to reject Senator Bray's latest attempt to restrict the rights of law-abiding Missourians by voting against SB1200. [/b]

And here's the web page of the SOBs pushing this nationwide as their get rich scheme: http://www.ammocoding.com/

Their lobby/lawfirm is the one that wrote the proposed legislation which is cookie cutter across several states.

This is just absolutely rediculous. They are just trying to find anyway to make it harder for the LAW abiding citizens to be able to use their guns. What would happen when some criminal stole ammo from someone? Are the LEO's then going to come in and arrest you and say "well, the bullet was registered to you so you must be guilty" Some people obviously have to much time on their hands to be able to support legislation like this. Obviously they should be voted out in the next election so as to be able to find a job more suitable to their talents, perhaps something like writing fairy tales....

I forgot to mention, the senator in question who sponsored the bill is from St. Louis County. No surprise there.
