THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT http://legisweb.state.wy.us/2013/Introduced/HB0104.pdf I searched on here and didn't find a single thread about it so I figured I would post it up. I like where this is going or at least how it is worded. Will probably end up like that Montana NFA law though.

You're going to get flamed from the regular crowd telling you how futile and stupid those bills are. Those same small minds would have told the founding fathers that forming their little continental congress was stupid because it violated British law.
Firearms Freedom acts are an important part of reclaiming states' rights from the federal government and pushing back against the abuses of the commerce clause. |

It has nothing to do with the liberal hate speech term "AWB."
It is a Firearm Protection Act. |

More freedom is never a bad thing.

But...my WY didn't fail me :) I love my MT and WY :D

Come one, come all, but don't bring any of your Bull Shit ideas with you.... ((Whiny voice)) I don't like mining, or drilling for oil or fracking or ranching, and solar power is a great idea.
We mine coal, drill for oil and natural gas, log, ranch and other manly things. If you don't like those things and are against them, stay the fuck out. If you are a solid citizen and don't mind a little wind, come on over! 
Oh, yeah... We like guns too.  |

Yeah, the aircraft carrier was in the proposed legislation, but the reason it was requested was to draw attention to reckless Federal spending, pork, budget deficits, the national debt, etc. You should have seen the comments posted all over the Internet by folks who thought our legislators were being serious. Or maybe you did? Absolutely grade A classic.
EDIT: It was 31 degrees when I got up this morning at 7:00am. Exactly a week ago it was -28 when I left the house for work! |
