Below is a copy of a email I received entitled: (2010 Tax Returns & Gun Registration....VERY IMPORTANT READ) The email is false according to Snopes. See the Snopes screen shot after the hump. I believe this is just another example of how the right wing Tea Baggers work with their false email chains to excite their less than educated, hate Obama, rural neocon base. Reckon the NRA had something to do with this? The email reads as follows: "Guns must be listed on 2010 tax return. More good news from our beloved administration........ Now 'all Guns' must be listed on your next (2010) tax return! As if we didn't have enough to get upset about! If you have a gun, I hope it isn't registered! Senate Bill SB-2099 will require us to put on our 2009 1040 federal tax form all guns that you have or own. It will require fingerprints and a tax of $50 per gun. This bill was introduced on Feb.. 24, 2009, by the Omama staff. BUT this bill will only become public knowledge 30 days after the new law becomes effective! This is an amendment to the Internal Revenue Act of 1986. This means that the Finance Committee has passed this without the Senate voting on it at all. Trust Obama? ..... you must be kidding!"
