Re: State Sovereignty and Free Firearms Acts

I actually think we might see a sort of revolution (maybe not armed) to get the power BACK to the states, and not just because of gun rights.
California is legalizing marijuana, this is in violation of the 1970 controlled substances act. Just as manufacturing/selling firearms without ATF approval is against the National Firearms act. I believe it was Montana (or one of the Dakotas) that passed a law saying a gun manufactured in their state will not require a background check... there is another state thinking of this as well (New Hampshire?). With states both liberal and conservatives CHALLENGING federal power that IS NOT GIVEN TO THEM under the constitution, eventually the federal government (Supreme court) will have to make a ruling. Fact of the matter is they don't have authority, and a judicial ruling affirming that would allow for states to do all sorts of things. That or the ruling would be that federal authority s ABSOLUTE, and face ANOTHER civil war/Succession.

CA has been fighting (and possibly won) to get the DEA to stay the heck out of their medical marijuana business, (they can seize property being LEASED for a medical marijuana dispenseries from the OWNER). If you attempted this, you would have to fight to keep the ATF out and use the statutes that could have possibly been set by California fighting against another Federal Agency- The DEA.

Scary to think that California is fighting for something that gun owners can use to their advantage!
