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.

Indiana follow Idaho please.
I deal with this in the car business, Decades ago the Fed Gov ordered that all state have compiling Automobile titles. As of today very few states have complied. Apparently we are no the “UNITED” State of America.
10th Amendment’s a$#%&!@* 😀
yea IDAHO!
It is the American people who won’t listen to the fed’s if they try to take our guns. I don’t see you taking away the guns where these muslims are with training camps in our country. They have signs no admittance so you don’t even go in to see what they are up to. They too will be like the KKK if you allow them go on. The KKK in 60’s on 60 minutes allow a reporter to go in and hell they have a regular army like Fort Ord with tanks etc.
Well REGULATED militia.
I think that, rather than publicly state you won’t enforce Obama’s executive orders, just quietly don’t – kinda like Obama picking and choosing which laws he’ll enforce…
Excellent!
States need to stand firm on many issues. While Obama has delusions of grandeur he is not a dictator. States cave in to threats of losing federal funding. That funding is seldom if ever taken away. Feds have no business dictating to schools to marriage and much else.
funny when the federal gov says they want mandatory background checks tards yell Obama is coming for my guns. Amazing how in NJ we have the most strict gun control laws in the country yet we still buy and own guns and have a republican gov who agrees with strict gun laws. Amazing that Reagan was for mandatory background checks on all gun sales and was against assault weapons owned by civilians yet when Obama says the same thing you get scared and pissy. WHats also amusing are all the red states that say screw the federal gov protest ect ect we are not listening or going to obey the federal gov. you are the first in line for your federal hand outs. the 2nd is a federal law, “well regulated” so that means the federal gov can regulate what kind of weapons you own. once again not a big deal doing a mandatory background check like we do in jersey. 38 states have gun show loop holes which allows you to buy and sell a gun second hand with NO background check. how do criminals obtain guns? they either steal them from gun owners or they buy them legally.
