The democrats are at it again. With more crazy lies. Just when you thought the democrats couldn't get any more stupid, they always impress you!

They want to microstamp ammunition to drive up ammunition prices to never before seen prices. They want to drive ammunition manufacturers out of business. Thats correct. The democrats are pulling the wool over your eyes with their pork laden "stimulus" package insisting they want to create jobs and boost business. Yet at the same time, they want to break down the ONLY business that is currently thriving in the USA. The gun industry has been doing great every since Hussein was elected. Never have the American people lived in such fear of their freedoms being taken away. Hussein is here to take your rights. Refuse to let your rights be taken. Call, write, and email your representatives and senators!

You can use this message below or make your own. Whatever you do, do not sit quietly while Comrade Obama takes every last one of your rights!

As a registered voter I am demanding that you do all you can to put an immediate end to the invasion of privacy and freedom called "ammo coding."
Patriot Benjamin Franklin once wrote that "A society that gives up its rights in the interest of governmental protection and safety guarantees that it will neither be safe, nor free."
1. Criminals will never use stamped bullets. There are hundreds of billions of unmarked cartridges floating around that are easily obtainable. Instead, a law like this will only spawn an "unstamped bullet" black market.

2. Laser-etching each bullet is expensive, adding about a half-cent to each round manufactured, i.e. $2.50 additional for each box of already-expensive .22 rimfire or pistol ammunition. If buying bullets becomes too high for the average person to purchase, then gun control advocates have their population-disarming agenda within reach.

3. No one will be able to purchase unmarked ammo after June 30, assuming the new ammo will be available on July 1.

4. Government will know the exact amount and caliber one purchases after that date, a total invasion of privacy.

5. All privately owned and uncoded ammo will have to be destroyed by July 1, 2011. Once again, this is gun control; no bullets, no guns. See how easy it is?

6. The system will not necessarily prove who pulled the trigger, but will quite possibly target the innocent.

7. The proposed law targets handloaders, too.

8. A licensing fee for each bullet sold will be required.

9. Ammunition retailers will incur administrative costs which will ultimately be passed on to the retail purchaser, thereby increasing the cost for a box of shells even more to the purchaser.

10. There are only a few ammunition manufacturers who can design and build the necessary equipment, meaning that many manufacturers would go out of business. One can then expect another governmental bureaucracy to be created to control the chaos.

11. Habitual criminals do not use registered guns, nor will they use registered ammo.

12. Eighteen states have this legislation currently pending, including California, a state where common sense legislation is an oxymoron.

Please stop this madness. I was once proud to be a free American. Now it seems we are living under a dictator.

A quick thanks to Gunslot for the great list of ways the democrats and Comrade Obama are trying to take away our most important of rights.
