Wow, three in a row by different posters. This must be some kind of record.
TX maybe overcome with immigration (from other states).
Works for me...
Attempting to enforce an illegal edict is a crime in and of itself.
USC Title 18 Section 242. Deprivation of Civil Rights under Color of Law.
Texas is making it very tempting to leave the People’s Republic of Maryland.
May my home state of Arizona be the next to pass this legislation
Yes. Pass legislation immediately to arrest anyone trying to violate the 2nd amendment.
Wyoming was the first state to take this stance. Texas makes #2. Tennessee is next in line,,,

Texas and Wyoming will tell the Feds no way Jose. Look this has been the plan all along by the Imperialist Obama - render the freedoms of the American People worthless and guess what America ceases to exist.
Looking at the education that Obama received - It is aaparent that his college records and transcripts are sealed because he took every course he could on Marxist,and Communist Political Thought. In addition he took courses on the theories of political thought - liberal democracy, deliberative democracy and the usage of decrees (executive orders) to change a country. Yes Obama studied political thought that came out of Russia, Guatemala, and Peru.
I honestly believe he studied what Alberto Fujimori strived to achieve in Peru. Obama has the accomplice media, the hysteria in Europe and the democrats whom will help him to achieve his goal
Wow! Did he really say King Obama?

I would agree that any crime by federal officials pretending they have the authority to infringe upon our individual right to keep and bear arms should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. As a juror, I would send the jack-booted thug responsible for such a crime to maximum security for the longest lawful sentence. “I was just following orders” is not an acceptable excuse - neither from the agent on the street or the immediate subordinate of the petty tyrant issuing an executive order for a gun grab.
Where is this in the Constitution? The Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and federal statutes are subject to the limitations in the Constitution.
Also, there is a federal law that states federal officials can have their criminal cases removed to federal court if arrested by a state law enforcement agency during the performance of their official duties. Not sure how the Feds could force a state to release an accused federal official if the state refused to do so.
Can Texas do a Bushmaster airdrop over New York State?? Help!!!!
In 1851 Massacussetts, New Hampshire, and Ohio passed nullifications of the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850 as well as ordinances which would punish anyone who cooperated with the FSL with punishment twice as harsh as the penalties of the federal law imposed for failure to assist in the recapture of a fugitive slave. Sounds like soeone in Texas knows their history. Now see if they follow through.
Mark my words, Texas will be at the epicenter of the next civil war. Just the other day, a Texas rep promised filing articles of impeachment if this petty dictator tries unconstitutional executive orders to strip 2nd Amendment rights from us.
I live in Texas, and I beg to help enforce that law!
Rather than define a particular crime, why not simply specify that an attempt to detain someone for the purpose of enforcing a facially-invalid statute shall be regarded as kidnapping; people have the same right to resist as they would any other kidnapping, and the kidnapper, if he survives, shall be subject to prosecution like any other. Since enforcement of facially-illegitimate statutes is by definition illegitimate, and since illegitimate actions can by definition form no part of a government official's legitimate duties, there would be no basis for Texas to release the official in question for federal [non-]prosecution.
All states need to copy that law
