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.

Somebody shoot that$#%&!@*^^^
I will say it’s funny and really sad to see so many people just blindly adopt what they hear from whichever source says exactly what they want to hear. First for the person asking when the Supreme Court ruled on the individual right to bear arms as if it had some reflection on the validity of the second amendment. It’s because for so long in our history responsible adults blamed the criminal and not the tool he used, it was not until Nixon and after that the government and citizens began trying to blame everything but the actual person. Second for those acting as if Obama is trying to enforce laws already in place…Do you realize how stupid that sounds or have you ever been to a gun show? If you don’t pass a background check you do not get a gun, if you purchase on by illegal means then it really is irrelevant that you bought it in the parking lot of a gun show or in a dark alley…you are breaking the law that is already in place and the police have to catch you doing it. Finally those speaking of mental illness and gun violence, if you do the research done by non bias parties you will find that less than 8% of gun violence is done by someone suffering a true mental illness and over half of that 8% are self medicating with illegal drugs and the violence is most often committed against family members. True research would open a lot of peoples eyes and stop thinking that a politician has our freedoms and best interests at heart. Think about why the majority of mass shootings occur in gun free zones, why the media does not know the definition of assault rifle, or that unless you have a federal firearms license you cannot own a weapon that is deemed automatic so people that own them illegally are already breaking “laws on the books” and again they have to be caught with the weapon and the punishment is already pretty severe. We have a people problem, not a gun problem.
