They (the Federal government) will figure out a way to control your property one way or another. Much of our liberty is an illusion, and we are able to practice it only because they have not had a desire to remove it...yet. Just like they determined the federal government could make that farmer stop growing wheat for his own use on his own property back then.

One of the classic cases of wrongdoing by our federal government that stands out in history.

They used "butterfly effect" logic to justify trampling the rights of the individual and blasphemed the sacred liberties our forefathers gave their lives for.

Re: making Texas firearms exempt from federal regulation

Glenn Beck mentioned it on his show the other day...said he loves Texas. Of course, he also seemed to have no clue that Montana had already passed one just like it...or maybe he purposely omitted that just to make folks think us Texans invented the idea.

Anyway, it'll be fun to see how it plays out. Anyone know if a similar law could be crafted applying to ammunition manufacture?
