| Wyoming and Arizona approve bills barring Enforcement Of Federal Gun Measure (Posted on 1/31/13 at 10:21 am)
quote:
Faced with the prospect of new federal gun restrictions, the Wyoming House gave initial approval Wednesday to bills that sponsors say would exempt guns in the state from new regulations while possibly taking the fight to criminals who might choose to attack public schools.
quote:
The House on Wednesday also gave preliminary approval to a bill that would allow citizens who hold concealed carry permits to carry guns on campuses of public schools, colleges and the University of Wyoming.

quote:
A Republican-sponsored bill barring enforcement of new federal guns laws sparked passionate debate in an Arizona Senate committee that ultimately passed the bill Wednesday.

Good.
I love to see the diversity between states on issues like this. Let Wyoming do what Wyoming does and let NY do what NY does.

About time someone sees the gun control crap for what it really is. Nice to see state's rights making a comeback in our nation.

Agreed. Maybe if enough of these states buck up and do this, it would show that not everyone thinks like NY.

Uh, the fed government can enforce the laws.
This just complicates an already complicated issue. It is still illegal for anything that is federally illegal.
At least as far as I know. And I could be wrong here.

Of course and in federal court.
It just makes the situation potentially a problem for citizens of the state who make think they are now allowed to own those things when in fact they are not.

Considering that the dea is still active in those states and prosecuting pot means they will still prosecute any laws like those as well.
