As progressives, rallied by the Obama administration, actively work to curb Americans’ gun rights, one state has raised it’s hand and said “Stop!”
Just last Friday, Idaho announced that it would neither enforce nor abide by federal gun laws. The move was made possible by a measure introduced in the state’s House and Senate and passed unanimously by both chambers.
The law could very well be one of the most serious challenges to the federal government’s anti-gun agenda. Per the wording of the bill, Idaho law enforcement officers would face up to $1,000 in fines as well as misdemeanor charges if they enforce federal gun laws. These punitive measures will likely go a long way in discouraging Idaho LEO’s from collaborating with feds trying to enforce gun laws in the state.
Naturally, the federal government, to say nothing of this virulently anti-gun administration, is not going to be happy about a state rejecting it’s statutes regarding gun ownership and usage. Indeed, after a similar law was passed in Kansas, former Attorney General Eric Holder, a true maven of the gun control lobby, wrote a letter to Governor Brownback threatening legal action against the state over it.
Let’s hope that Idaho is able stay strong if Obama and his goons try to stop them.

Anti American Fools are ruining our country !! STOP VOTING FOR DEMOCRATS !!
Since there are sanctuary cities and states for illegal immigration, I see nothing wrong with doing the same for the king’s new edict on gun control.
Todd Jones Hey Todd, since you keep bringing up facts and research so much, please answer me this question:
When did the US Supreme Court first rule that there was an individual right to bear arms for the purpose of self defense and how many years after the adoption of the 2nd Amendment did this ruling take place? You seem to know all the answers – can you answer this? The answer might surprise you and it certainly won’t bolster any arguments that this was what the Founders originally intended. Please, answer this question for everybody else on here to see if you are so concerned with facts and research.
What do people think Obama is doing? He is enforcing a law on the books. Ie. If you are a gun dealer, you have to register and follow the rules. At this point the only requirement for the states is to report felony and domestic violence convictions and people committed to mental institutions by judicial hearing. So unless a jury convicted you of beating your wife or a judge ruled you are a clear and present danger to others it doesn’t impact you.
