FYI...we need to get our state legislatures in all of our states to follow these leads.

This passed through committee basically intact. The biggest change is that it is now a misdemeaner instead of a felony for a federal official to attempt to enforce laws contrary to this, and the committee also established restrictions, such as age an mental competency, on the purchase of Wyoming made firearms.

The concealed carry without a permit law also passed committee, once again with out major changes.

This thread has a report from a local paper: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2453393/posts

This committee was the biggest hurdle in the House; Chairman Gingery is a bit of a RINO from the liberal side of the state (Jackson). However since it cleared, it should be smooth sailing in the House. I am not sure what reception either of these bills will get in the Senate; they don’t like to rock the boat.

2nd amendment legal ping, our state is one of the ones considering it.

Hate to say this guys, but we can't have it both ways. Wyoming can't opt out of the federal regulations it doesn't while saying that Illinois has to follow the regulations it doesn't like (in regards to the Garfield gun rights case).

That and if a state cop arrested an ATF officer, he (the state cop) will do serious time in prison.

It has been settled law since the 1930’s that the Interstate Commerce clause applies to everything grown, made, or transferred. If it applies to wheat grown on a farm to be used only on that farm, it applies to firearms.

While I love the idea, this isn't the way to go. It will only land someone (and maybe some state officials) in federal jail, and the Supreme Court will side with the Fedgov. Guaranteed.
