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.

Well you entitled to your opinion as am I but the very person you might one day have to protect yourself against is your depressed, intolerant neighbor with anger issues that got a gun through that loop hole.
Even if we had a republican president in office and none of these issues were issues, they still have no right to do what they are doing in Oregon regardless.
Oh and it is every bit MY BUSINESS if 1) I pay taxes and 2) I have to worried shady person that can’t get a gun the normal way, having a gun or road rage incidents where people get so angry they start shooting. So either you made that statement out of stupidity or your just so angry that you can’t think straight.
Chad Lundak Please show me where it says regulated actually means equipped. It sounds to me that is just your convenient interpretation…but I could be wrong.
When the Constitution was written, the term “regulated” was used in a manner that we might use the work “functional” today. You could describe a working watch as well regulated. A militia can’t be functional unless it is armed.
Furthermore the people that refuse to see this for what it is and are just flat out outraged by it, are the ones that we most likely need to protect ourselves from. In just one week there have been 2 shootings by gun owners. 1 was a man that killed his own son cause he thought he was an intruder and the other was the founder of an anti Obama march who was shot between the eyes in a shootout that started over an argument. I hope you don’t ever find yourself in that situation but why increase the odds?
Damm right idaho wahoo that’s how u tell that egotistical to go for himself
