Subject: Nobody can sell ammo after 6/30/09
You might want to send this to all your hunting buddies family & friends. Nobody can sell any ammunition after June 30, 2009 It has already started.... Ammunition Accountability Legislation Remember how Obama said that he wasn't going to take your guns? Well, it seems that his allies in the anti-gun world have no problem with taking your ammo! The bill 20 that is being pushed in 18 states (including Illinois and Indiana ) requires all ammunition to be encoded by the manufacture 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 gun! 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 , and Washington .. Send &nb sp; ;to your friends in these states AND fight to dissolve this BILL!!

Group tries to profit off gun control legislation
Ammo Accountability group has patents on technology used to enforce legislation they sponsor but their scheme isn't getting traction
A visit to the website Ammunition Accountability.org (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001H3zmZLnp6hDH2nI-QDnjkWJdBryx-K7yJwIIt5Si3Z_gI6aaf_GmwVzc5vBt6TzBnXFy9kp_ZM5Fa4f nBbFP96a3ljDbYAOsf1sp5QRUlQYFEqRO5eYbdF2duaW8FSEk) -- they also run a mirror .com (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001H3zmZLnp6hBtqC2nF8ml6zsh0HyAb4I5xECaVR 67qTrLid_6dJsc2eBqcTnbYeO5u7J0idtBue8yjIPWtXL-aRMDdC_K0rrSPzwogLcdTAYtjjSddZMBP3Vl4SLAWdxJ) site -- would lead you to believe that they were a grassroots conglomeration of concerned citizens and civic leaders with an unimpressive, low-tech website.
That couldn't be further from the truth.
The Ammunition Accountability Act and corresponding website are run by a company that developed the technology necessary to enforce the same legislation they lobby for. In other words, the founders of the Ammunition Accountability Act are pushing legislation which will have a direct and substantial financial benefit to them.
The legislation calls for each individual piece of ammunition produced to be etched or stamped with a unique serial number. This patented technology was developed by Russ Ford and his business partners Steve Mace and John Knickerbocker of Seattle, Washington.
Ford and his associates were unable to convince any ammunition manufacturers to use their technology, so they hired a lobbyist to push for state-level ammo tagging legislation (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001H3zmZLnp6hCdeepJvd946539Lk0RaJItAGs8Sy yEniICCXdA-TKNWI2Xfvb9i2zOQTX7jEqXAkm5Kb03cAFqvOiyekdcCdtOGDg imeoXTaB2z-XigSa5FzVoAl0oxgPt8nnw2b6gsFqh7w9hBjAdh189AlgGCkVP MuyhstwYUDmebZMwRaSqZg==).
Ostensibly Ford and company are billing this legislation as a way to stop violent crime by tracking handgun and “assault weapon” ammunition.
However, the sample text of their legislation -- provided on their website -- would outlaw the ownership of all non-tagged ammo of any caliber. Additionally, the legislation would require a state-run database to track each ammunition serial number and information on who purchased each round of ammo.
Not only does the legislation directly aim to financial benefit Ford and his business partners, but it will push most ammunition manufactures out of business, and make home reloading ammunition illegal.
Their legislation has been introduced in 18 states in 2008.
However, none of introduced pieces of legislation have gotten beyond committee hearings in any state. They have all died, most killed in their first committee of reference.. Each of the introduced bills has died on their respective calendars when each state legislative session adjourned sine die.
In Colorado, this legislation has never even been introduced, though for the last two years there has been a group urging legislators to carry this legislation.
Our office has been flooded with daily e-mails about this issue, many of them -- wrongly -- asserting that the legislation has already passed. It's simply not true.
Ammunition Accountability is little more than a couple of anti-gunners trying to cash in on hoplophobia (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001H3zmZLnp6hD2lU5Sjp0lVhwr77uO25UMpa_91w 7r9siOFcvM56p9fYbk8kaB1zG9mY0H3j4C__nJNK_aOhNPPoSc o0V8SnX2hvuCE_t92tQ7RKklNWtc1MrCDs53ifdNk5atI-ki63A=). And thankfully, they haven't been getting anywhere with their zany idea.
