http://crooksandliars.com/david-neiwert/gop-led-missouri-gun-nullification-lBasically: Missouri GOP is trying to pass a law that would negate all federal gun laws AND allow local law enforcement to arrest any federal agents trying to enforce those laws. The fact that this law is unconstitutional does not seem to bother them.
I wish they would just stop playing around and declare independence already. I mean it would save them a lot of trouble, they could still use the US military in their international dick waving contest to show who has the biggest bombs AND it would save USA money since fighting on homeground saves a lot of the expenses that come from having your army fight overseas. The savings in gas alone would be tremendous. AND the military-industrial complex would still get their money from guns, ammo and other equipment.
But wait, there's more in the article:
This legislation is neither new nor innovative. It was first proposed in the 1990s by Charles Duke, then a Republican state senator from Colorado
...
Duke once outraged constituents by asking a crowd how many thought the federal government was behind the Oklahoma City bombing. He told The Wall Street Journal that "an executive order is being prepared by President Clinton to suspend the Bill of Rights." He suggested that GOP House Speaker Newt Gingrich was involved in bugging his home. And he tried to broker an end to the Montana Freeman standoff.
Then came an epiphany. After a summer in a cabin hidden deep in the woods, Duke emerged to say "the Lord God almighty" had suggested that he drop out of politics and instead learn "how to survive in a country devoid of freedom."
Hey, if you replace Clinton with Obama and Ginrich with ...Obama, this sounds just like the stuff you hear today!
The only thing that suprised me with this story is that some of the democrats are also supporting this law. Things are getting quite interesting in USA. who knows, maybe we
will balkanized USA in my lifetime. It often seems to make for an interesting game setting.
