State legislators in Wyoming aren’t shrugging the gun control avalanche off. They’ve introduced a bill (H.B. No. 0104) that would tell the liberal Democrats in Washington just where they can go. I’d like to see the same thing happen in Texas. Then, I can move someplace warmer than Wyoming. From Right Side News:
Wyoming’s Firearms Protection Act, is “an act relating to firearms; providing that any federal law which attempts to ban a semi-automatic firearm or to limit the size of a magazine of a firearm or other limitation on in this state shall be unenforceable in Wyoming; providing a penalty; and providing for an effective date.” This act nullifies all federal laws made after Jan. 1, 2013.
Much more at the link. And, here’s a link to a PDF of the bill.
Vermont Gov. Shumlin has (after years of being rated “A” by gun groups) caved and said that he supports an “assault weapons” ban. ‘Effing coward.

What the states should do is define the militia in their state as all people and that all people are to arm themselves with AR-15 rifles. That way, you can’t disarm the militia or ban the firearms common for militia use.

Kindly have a look at the wikipedia article on the Nullification Crisis of 1832, and Andrew Jackson’s presidential proclamation of Dec. 10, 1832:

Excerpt: “I consider, then, the power to annul a law of the United States, assumed by one State, incompatible with the existence of the Union, contradicted expressly by the letter of the Constitution, unauthorized by its spirit, inconsistent with every principle on which It was founded, and destructive of the great object for which it was formed.”
