Anonymous Coward User ID: 27352798 United States 01/05/2013 10:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Brrrrrrr!! But I hear ya. I was just checking out southern Utah as they are one of the green states, but don't know if I could stand the continual LDS mentality. They seem to be good people and have been preppers since they started but I'm not part of their "club". Idaho is so dang cold, though. And Arizona, well maybe, but I have a feeling that state is going to be punished. The Gov is so up in Obongo's face about everything, he doesn't like having people stand up to him like that.

Resister User ID: 1461638 United States 01/05/2013 10:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My Tennessee passed this in 2009 by a huge majority. It was almost unanimous. The ATF wasted no time sending a letter to every gun dealer in the state threatening them. It's a stand off and our governor is too damn wimpy. If push came to shove Haslam would cave and it would be up to each local sheriff on their own to protect the people from the federal government.

Resister User ID: 1461638 United States 01/05/2013 10:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | We're fucked here in Connecticut. The local reps hate us "law abiding" citizens more the the feeds do. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8829646 Yep. New England, IL, and CA were too far gone a long time ago. Your best bet is to move to a free state at this point. You would be welcomed. The politics you left would not. That's the trouble with so many transplants. They leave to get away from the results of their state's tyranny, but then expect and vote for the same kind of liberal progressive politicians they always did back home. ... also please learn to say "reckon" and "fixin' to" if you move South. It will ease your transition and be a good show of faith. Last Edited by Resister on 01/05/2013 10:56 AM "God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion.

States rights is going to be one of the biggest issues in the coming year. The other states who have NOT passed this BEFORE the feds strike down the 2nd amendment will be screwed. I am so surprised that Texas NEVER passed this. |

The VIPER checkpoint was only for commercial heavy trucks at checkpoints they are alreay required to stop at, but it was certainly the Fed flexing it's tyranny muscle.

They said any gun or ammo made in TN that stayed in TN could not be regulated by intrastate commerce clause. I believe the feds said so what. We'll arrest you anyway, if I am not mistaken They won't.

This I agree with, but Haslam caves to public pressure as well. A few hundred people on legislative square caused him to reverse course on one issue recently (can't remember exact issue, but watched the demonstrators from my office window). This is a big enough issue withe the entire legislature behind it that I think Haslam would be forced to do the "right thing" when push came to shove.

I think we only have 1 gun manufacturer in the state anyway, and it's a small custom deal. |

Don't waste any more time doing it. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21416502 They are well funded and a organization that has been solely dedicated to keeping Americans and their guns together for decades. Strength in numbers. Get with the program right now. Not next week. Not next month. NOW I agree it may be time for folks to join the NRA to help fund the national fight; however, I think it equally important for us to focus on local/state coalitions as well. If the Bolsheviks succeed at the National level, the commies will have won and the NRA will have failed. We will need more than a website and 1-800 number to bring us together and local coalitions are the only way to accomplish this. Within the surreal depths of "reality" lies the truth. |
