Joe Biden’s Gun Agenda Could Cost AR-15 Owners $3.6 Billion in Taxes for Guns They Al

AZRWinger · #1 (**permalink**) 11-25-2020, 08:53 AM

Remember when Joe Biden was asked in one of his rare interviews about confiscating so-called assault weapons? He replied "Bingo, if you have an AR-15 it's gone". Your 2A right is contingent on Biden's whim.

Biden's plan to begin the confiscation process is to first register and tax the assault weapons.

Quote:

Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden’s proposed gun control policy includes a provision that could require every AR-15 rifle be registered under the National Firearms Act of 1934. Unless there were some form of carve-out, this could mandate that American gun owners pay a $200 federal tax per AR-15 that they own. The National Rifle Association’s Andrew Arulanandam told Breitbart News that the current “low end” estimate of privately-owned AR-15s in the United States is 18 million. A tax of $200 on 18 million AR-15s means that gun owners could potentially be required to a pay a collective $3.6 billion in taxes, if this policy were enacted into legislation.

That figure does not even consider other guns that might be deemed “assault weapons” by Democrats

The author ignores the likelihood of Biden the registration and tax scheme via executive order should Congress "fail" to go along with the scheme. Indeed, Defacto President Harris promised just such a course of action during the campaign.

But why stop with a one time fee? After John Roberts rewrote the individual mandate into an annual tax there is nothing restraining anti 2A politicians from picking the pockets of gun owners an annual ritual.

It's a virtual certainty many owners of the targeted assault weapons would simply refuse to register or pay a tax for exercising their Constitutional rights enough so that like millionaires special taxes revenues would be far short of projections. But, the most important developments would be establishing an easily expanded list of firearms and a Federal registration database, both are essential to making Joe Biden's promised gun confiscation a reality.

The 'lost, stolen or sold' lists will be extensive.

It's none of their damn business who has what.

Antifa broke into my house and stole them all.

AR-15's are under the radar now, but we all know that ALL guns can be
classified as assault weapons. All they have to do is bring up the mass shootings involving hand guns.

I have to most rotten luck. While boating on Lake Erie this summer with some friends, I happened to take all of my firearms with me. Wouldn't you know it, but at the deepest part of the lake, the boat sank. We were lucky to escape with our lives. Unfortunately, all of the guns were lost.

Oh well.

Any American who actually supports the 2nd amendment will never support registration of firearms. Because registrations will either be used for excessive taxes and or confiscation.

I still remember a news outlet PUBLICLY doxxing gun owners by using permit records pointing out where they live...

Newspaper sparks outrage for publishing names, addresses of gun permit holders

Quote:

An interactive map showing the names and addresses of all handgun permit holders in New York’s Westchester and Rockland counties has infuriated many readers since it was posted Saturday on a newspaper’s website.

The map, published by The Journal News, allows readers to zoom in on red dots that indicate which residents are licensed to own pistols or revolvers. It had prompted more than 1,700 comments as of Wednesday morning.

Blue dots indicate permit holders who “have purchased a firearm or updated the information on a permit in the past five years.”

“So should we start wearing yellow Stars of David so the general public can be aware of who we are??” one commenter wrote.

“This is crazy!” wrote another.

Biden has explicitly stated his goal is to take away all AR-15 rifles from civilians. He has appointed Jen O'Malley Dillon, his campaign manager, to be deputy chief of staff. Her gun grabbing pedigree is a long one. As Beto O'Rourke's campaign manager she endorsed his more extensive gun confiscation scheme than Biden's and she has publicly stated confiscating weapons of war is very, very important.

Every damned gun grabber and cheerleader for them can eat shlt and bark at the moon. That is all they will accomplish.

I would think revealing the addresses of where armed people live so that anti-gun cocksuckers can harass them would be a bad idea.

I bet anti-2nd amendment trash will be out in full force telling us that we are paranoid for taking them at their word that they want to take away guns and falsely claim no wants to take away guns.
