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.

Too bad for Idaho citizens. They will continue be among the states with the highest per capita gun deaths. They kill themselves and each other at three times the rate of Massachusetts, instance.

GOOD
Haven’t they learned yet that federal law trumps state law?
Then constitution trumps the feds. That’s how the States win.
Kiss my red white and blue$#%&!@*Obama F-OFF.
Now that’s meat and POTATOES! GO IDAHO!
Really ??? The moot issue is how far either side will go on trying to take the guns….. the law will have nothing to do with it…… gun owners are for the most part willing to die to keep their guns….. this means shooting anyone who trays to take them…… is your neighbor the cop or national guardsman willing to kill you for the sake of taking your gun ???
Why don’t you take the guns away from yourself you black some of the bitch
Some states have decided they would legalize recreational marijuana. In direct conflict with federal law. What Idaho and other states have done with regard to federal over reach on the 2nd amendment is no different. It’s time we said no to BO/HRC’s gutting of the 2nd amendment!!
Do not let the Government take your guns away. We will be completely helpless. Just what they want
