I love it.
All red states should pass such laws.
Let the Biden Gestapo take them to court if they don’t like it.
Why only one county? I thought there was state bill on this?
Methinks Justice Roberts has an “emanating penumbra with latches” warning up in the bullpen ...
There is a state bill...but counties get things done faster.
How many Divisions does he have?
Hope this turns into an avalanche, like the hole in the fence that brought down the Eastern Bloc!
States will rebel against the US government over their citizens rights under their Constitution.
Bushwhacker state. Didnt like Union troops on their soil, they did something about it. Hope this goes statewide. Resist.
Under the Civil Rights Act of 1965 government officials are not exempt. If they violate the constitutional rights of an individual they themselves are subject to arrest. 2nd Admendment is still part of the constitution. Suspect if there is push on both sides, things will get really interesting. However long before the issue works its way through the courts, shooting will have already will have commenced.
Given who’s currently heading the military? All of them, I’d say.
This law feels emotionally satisfying to me, but I think it’s impractical. The Federal government isn’t going to allow counties or states to arrest their people. The first step will be cutting off all Federal funding to anyone who enacts the policy. That will economically devastate whoever tries it. After that, I think they’ll show up in such massive displays of force that no arrests would be possible without bloodshed, and nobody’s going to do that.
I do think that having state and local laws nullifying unconstitutional Federal gun laws are good, and I think state and local laws barring any state or local law enforcement from assisting the Feds in enforcing such laws are also great to have. You can’t stop the Feds from doing what they want to do, but you can stop helping them. That actually makes a big difference as the Feds don’t have the resources to do all the ground work themselves. They count on local cooperation. Take that away and their operational capacity is greatly diminished.
All of them whenever a leftist priority is at stake, as per the "woke" DoD ...

Don’t bet the life on that. We ain’t in Kansas anymore...
I don’t get it. There are plenty of States that ignore any number of Fed Laws, like Illegal Immigration, Marijuana, and other drugs. No problem there. So why would there be a problem ignoring other laws.
What are these magical laws and Constitution you speak so highly of ?
If they were real, then how could a former Republican President get impeached while out of office while a Democrat Federal judge who was impeached, convicted, and removed from office for bribery currently have a seat in the House ?
So when 60 guys from ATF and the FBI show up with full tactical gear, helicopters, and sharpshooters, the local sheriff is going to start shooting with his revolver?
Yeah, I don’t think so. The local sheriff is going to show up and tell them to please go away. They’re going to ignore him and do what they want to do. But they can’t show up with 60 guys to every raid they want to do. So they’ll have to pick and choose a much smaller number. But those raids will absolutely happen and nobody’s getting arrested from the Feds at them.
“How many Divisions does he have?”
I’m thinking the same. While this certainly sounds good, and I wish them the best, people are SERIOUSLY UNDERESTIMATING the power of the federal government. The question will be very simple: How much pain is this county and Missouri ready to take accept to protect the Second Amendment. I can think some tools off the top of my head that will get the attention of state/county leaders, if they fail to comply - such as seizing their bank accounts and their property, for starters. The feds can do all that from DC, if they wish.
“I don’t get it. There are plenty of States that ignore any number of Fed Laws, like Illegal Immigration, Marijuana, and other drugs. No problem there. So why would there be a problem ignoring other laws.”
The Democrats play by a different set of rules...
Because there is no equal protection under the law, the leftists have weaponized every aspect of the Federal Government to destroy and subjugate America as Founded to their sole benefit ...
Impeaching someone while out of office is unconstitutional.
However, Hastings punishment was limited to removal from office, not disqualification.
Disqualification from holding office is not automatic with impeachment. The House Articles have to specifically request that remedy and the Senate has to vote to affirm it.
That wasn’t done.
