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.

Chris is right. Not all Republicans are Bible thumping morons. Some of us walk the middle of the line. I too support a woman’s right to choose, I could care less who marries who as long as it’s legal in that state. And I completely believe in my right to keep and bear arms. I don’t however believe in God or organized religion. The problem with government today is that the Left leans WAY too far left and the Right leans way too far to the right. Those of us who walk a middle line are becoming smaller and smaller.
If san fran can disobey illegal immigrant fed laws, why not?
unfortunatly this kind of civil disobedience will become our only option soon if obama nominates another lefty loon to the supreme court

They will fall in line we he gets though witk them.
Outstanding
Obama wants a legacy for him to be remembered by. Gun control, Iran deal, SCOTUS nominee,climate change, but with all these failures, his legacy will go down in history as the worst president ever.
I don’t think this is something the states should be doing. A repeal of the 17th Amendment would better serve the rights of the people by reestablishing the representation of the states by allowing the State itself to be represented, but people wanted a democracy so they began dismantling the safeguards of the constitution. Choices have consequences.
Love Idaho.
