States pulling rug from under Obama gun plans
[The federal government imposes regulations and licensing requirements
under the Commerce Clause, which regulates commerce among the states.
The states challenge that weapons that don’t cross state lines are exempt.
In Wyoming, the “upgrade” should get the attention of federal agents.
It states any official charged, “upon conviction, shall be subject to
imprisonment for not less than one year and one day or more than five
years.”
The bill additionally tacks a $5,000 fine
upon the official for violating Wyoming law.
Estimates now are that there are 17 states
with some type of freedom act for firearms.
Alaska House Speaker Mike Chenault, R-Nikiski introduced HB 69, which
exempts “certain firearms and firearm accessories in this state from federal
regulation; providing criminal penalties for federal officials who enforce or
attempt to enforce a federal law, regulation, rule, or order regulating certain
firearms and firearm accessories in this state.”
Chenault told Sitnews.com, “We began work on this bill before the
president’s announcement … and now I’m extremely glad we did.
Twenty-three executive orders have been signed … without a
review from Americans’ elected representatives.”
Kroeker agreed. He said that wanting to upgrade the current Firearm
Freedom Act is “I think it is pretty clear that his agenda is to disarm
Americans and take way as many guns as possible.”]

Where are the rest of the states? Come on you governors, senators, and representatives. Take a stand before it’s too late. You have set by already and let things happen that never should have. Obama and his minions are going to keep pushing all these socialist acts down our throats if we keep sitting silently by.

http://www.wsaz.com/news/headlines/Mock-Disaster-Training-Exercise-in-Scioto-County-187322931.html Get a load of this BULSHE! They are conducting disaster drill’s using Second Ammendment proponents as the terrorist’s,using biological and chemical weapons upon the public. Pay attention to this.Our government has Banned the use of the word “islam” in terrororist trainin scenario’s but has no problems at all trying to link Second Ammendment advocates and Tea Party Conservative to mass casualty terrorist events in This Country and trying to cement that possibility inside the American publics mind.
Pay alot of attention to this. Some scenario like this one will be played out in a government sponsored “False Flag” event, with some Conservative group as the terrorist’s to have an excuse, for a suspension of liberties by declaring martial law and as a pre-text for trying to take away our God Given Second Ammendment Right’s. They are trying to Brainwash the public before it Happens that God Fearing, Constitutionally Conservative American’s are capable of this and are the enemy,before Obama and his thugs launch their next “False Flag” attack. When the next Slaughter happen’s immediately suspect Obama and company!

These laws will have zero effect. Federal law trumps state law. This is just more hysterical whining from cowards and idiots.

UPDATE, 01-26-10
Colorado, South Dakota Firearms Freedom Act Introduced
[The principle behind such legislation is nullification, which has a long
history in the American tradition. When a state ‘nullifies’ a federal law,
it is proclaiming that the law in question is void and inoperative, or ‘non
-effective,’ within the boundaries of that state; or, in other words, not
a law as far as the state is concerned.]

Could States Stymie White House Gun Control Push?
[NOTABLE:
STATE OF THE STATES: No sooner had President Barack Obama laid out his gun control proposals Wednesday, than some states responded, saying they would move to block the laws’ enforcement. Some state legislators were even working feverishly to block the measures before the president proposed them, ABC’s Shushannah Walshe reports. After the president’s announcement, Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant joined House Speaker Phil Gunn at a press conference at the State Capitol in Jackson to denounce the president’s gun control measures and call on the legislature to make it illegal to enforce any of the new federal gun control measures. “These are dangerous times, and people have a constitutional right to protect themselves and their property,” Gunn said. On Wednesday in Missouri, State Sen. Brian Munzlinger, who represents Williamstown, filed legislation he says will seek “to keep far-reaching regulations from violating the constitutional rights of all Missourians.” Lawmakers in Tennessee and Wyoming laid out similar legislation and sheriffs in Oregon also signaled they would push back on any new federal regulations.]

Say, Nice bunch of Highway funds you have there from the feds, be a shame if they got stopped. Block federal gun whatevs? we don’t think so.
What about Community Block Grants too, with projects half done. and didn’t the feds pay for more police a few years ago? Get rid of them too.
What the states might have to do is order closed all federal offices and just pay for all programs themselves. Prob have to set up a blockaded border(s) too.

Pistol in Mexico is tied to ATF agent in Minn. gun sting
[A semi-automatic pistol found near the scene of a gun battle in Mexico where five people died, including a Mexican beauty queen, has been traced to a former federal gun agent in Minnesota who was part of the government's controversial Fast and Furious border gun-tracking operation.
The Justice Department's inspector general has confirmed that it is investigating allegations that an FN Herstal Five-seven handgun tracked from the area of a Nov. 23 shootout in Sinaloa was linked to George Gillett Jr., who oversaw Operation Fast and Furious from October 2009 to April 2010.
Gillett played a central role in a similar Twin Cities gun sting a decade ago that was shut down after several government-tracked guns were connected to violent gang crimes. He later worked in Arizona and has offered himself as a witness in the Republican-led congressional probe of Operation Fast and Furious, which led to a U.S. House contempt vote in June against U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.]

More Minty, do you think that using “bold” makes your comments “stronger” than everyone else’s? Federal law may trump state law, but the feds have to come into the state to enforce it. and if they don’t have the support of local law enforcement, that’s a tall order. You don’t see the feds coming in and busting pot smokers in California, Colorado, or anywhere else that passed looser state Marijuana laws do you? I know you’re HOPING Obama will impose his fascist, unconstitutional gun laws upon us, but we aren’t going for it, and guess what? We’re FAR BETTER prepared to fight this BS than all those bong smokers in California are…

Ft Hood – Registered Democrat- Muslim

were registered democrats and progressive liberals
VA Tech – Wrote hate mail to Pres Bush
and to his staff. Registered Democrat
Colorado Theater – Registered Democrat, staff worker
on the Obama campaign, occupy wall street participant,
progressive liberal
Connecticut School Shooter – Registered Democrat, hated Christians
Common thread is that all of these shooters
were progressive liberal democrats.”
Interesting…isn’t it?

Progressives/IslaMarxists : Social Engineering
[A social engineering bill to restrict residence in the suburbs and rural
areas and force Americans into city centers has passed the United
States Senate Banking Committee and is on the fast track to passage
in the Senate.
The bill is called the Livable Communities Act (SB 1619) and it was
introduced by corruptocrat outgoing Senator Christopher Dodd
(D- Conn.). It seeks to fulfill the United Nation’s plan Agenda 21,
adopted at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 and signed
onto by “New World Order” President George H.W. Bush.
This bill is designed to destroy your community. According
to the non-profit American Policy Center the bill:
* Is a blueprint for the transformation
of our society into total Federal control.
* Will enforce Federal Sustainable Development
zoning and control of local communities.
* Will create a massive new “development” bureaucracy.
* Will drive up the cost of energy to heat and cool your home.
* Will drive up the cost of gasoline as a way to get you out of your car.
* Will force you to spend thousands of dollars on your home in order to comply.]

Islam and Social Justice
[Social Justice is has occupied a significant share of the Islamic conscience. Equality, and a sense of collective responsibility towards one another has been a hallmark of the early Muslim community, and has resulted in an influx of the poor, the underprivileged and slaves into Islam, escaping the brutal and rigidly hierarchical social structure that prevailed Arabia in the 6th century AD. The Prophet’s teachings tell us that “the Muslim community is like one body; if one part is ailing, the rest of the body responds with fever and ache”. Personal wealth is also considered a trial (64:15) and a gift entrusted to the wealthy by God (57:7, 2:254, 4:39, 13:22) to see if they will handle it as He wishes. The poor and the needy are therefore entitled to a share of the society’s wealth (51:19, 70:24-70:25).]
G/GPUSA : Ten Key Values
[Social Justice and Equal Opportunity
All persons should have the rights and opportunity to benefit equally
from the resources afforded us by society and the environment. We
must consciously confront in ourselves, our organizations, and society
at large, barriers such as racism and class oppression, sexism and
heterosexism, ageism and disability, which act to deny fair treatment
and equal justice under the law.]
[Later -- during his interview with United Church News -- Obama
continued his thoughts about religion and politics; specifically, the
role of religious principles in reaching a balance between national
security and social justice concerns.
"I believe that democracy demands that the religiously motivated
translate their concerns into universal values," Obama said. "Social
justice and national security are both universal values, values that
may originate for some in their religious beliefs, but are shared by
us all."]
Marx and Islam : Social Justice
[The self-righteousness of the neo-Marxist fascists is such that they
strongly believe they are justified (even in their "antiwar" personas)
to violently attack and/or intimidate any who disagree with them.
It just so happens, that these tenets (multiculturalism, political
correctness, and radical environmentalism) represent three of the
four pillars that are the foundation of an evolving epistemological,
ethical and political strategy that the socialist remnants in the
world have conceptualized and implemented to prevent their
ideology from entering the dustbin of history.
And, what is most interesting is that, even as they encourage
and enable Islam with the first three pillars; the Islamofascists
are aiding and abetting them by using the fourth pillar- Terrorism.
We can think of the four pillars as the reason why we are witnessing a
socialist revival (e.g., Hugo in the western hemisphere recently) and the
rapid advancement of the Islamic Jihad all around the world.]
