Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
Sad what our state is coming to. Please help us gun owners out. Passing along the info!
Anti-Hunter/Shooter Bill Ready for Vote!
The information below is from the California Waterfowl Association.
Don't wait act today!
=============================
Your assistance is still needed to defeat this unwarranted attack on
California hunters and shooting enthusiasts!
SB 1152 (Scott) would treat law-abiding sportsmen and women like criminals
by requiring them to submit a thumb print and other personal information,
such as an address and driver license number, each and every time they buy
ammunition. Such requirements are already mandated in a few Bay Area and
Southern California counties, but no formal studies have ever proven that
they help to fight or deter crime.
Imagine being forced to provide a thumbprint for merely purchasing a box of
shells for duck hunting or skeet shooting! What's next, a mug shot? SB
1152 is nothing more than unjustifiable harassment of the hunting and
shooting community, and would serve as a major disincentive for the public
to purchase ammunition and participate in hunting and other shooting
activities. This bill, which is currently pending in the Assembly
Appropriations Committee, must be stopped.
SB 1152 is scheduled for a vote in the Assembly Appropriations Committee on
Wednesday, August 4th. Please call, fax, or write members of the committee
immediately and urge them to strongly oppose SB 1152.
