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.

John Micheal Stacey, we already have laws to prevent this. I.JUST purchased a gun online, and it must pass through TWO FFL dealers, and I must pass an FBI background check before the second can transfer the gun to my possession. It would be helpful if the Liberals actually understood what they were talking about. As for individuals passing guns between each other, NO LAW is ever going to be able to prevent that from happening. It is foolish to think.otherwise!
All States should do the same thing. Obama’s dictates are unconstitutional. This p***k will be out of office before the Supreme Court hears any of these cases. The next Pres can also use his pen to make all of the Kings dictates Null and Void. Go Trump.
good for them.
AWESOME
49 to go!
Go idaho
Since the people are the state they are the ones who need to stand and tell this fidiot who he is and what he can and cannot do. Congress and all those other alphabet agencies, like the senate, governor, SoS, are fictions only, not government offices over America, just voting bodies for that USAC corporation..and those agencies do have the power to make rules etc, but only for those who are members of that certain agency or club, no one else has to comply.
all but California and New York,,
The states always have the power to trumph the federal government, it is we the people who give them their power.
Fast and Furious guns still showing up, this Administration has no honor
