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.

Good by ny, hello idaho.
The second amendment is one the reasons why another country will never want to invade this country because if everybody has guns it makes it so much harder. So Obama has a plan to make it easier for the invaders.
All states should follow
I don’t think you guys get it. It’s the supreme court’s job to examine laws for constitutionality. This has already been determined and their power has always been. No-one has EVER even suggested a total gun ban. Im pretty sure it’s not the lay persons job to determine what the constitution means. Noone is taking your stupid guns and if you don’t want to participate in expanded background checks and are more concerned about a piece of metal than you are about the general safety of the population, perhaps you aren’t the type of person that needs to be owning a firearm.
The same people who determine whether you’re fit to drive a vehicle…
Obama wants to take our guns away, and Hillary wants to do the same. They both have no respect for the constitution. Let’s do the right thing and make sure they don’t get out and stay out of the White House.
Asshole
I hope Texas does the same.
Agree or not. I support the states rights! If one wants to jump on board with the fed growing… Great. If one wants to abstain, great!
