Wyoming House Approves Bills Exempting State From Federal Gun Control Measures
” Faced with the prospect of new federal gun restrictions, the Wyoming House gave initial approval Wednesday to bills that sponsors say would exempt guns in the state from new regulations while possibly taking the fight to criminals who might choose to attack public schools.
The House voted in favor of a bill that would seek to block the federal government from restricting assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. It amended the bill to specify that federal officials who tried to enforce any ban would be subject to state misdemeanor charges instead of felony charges.”

Ariz. Senate Panel Passes Bill Barring Enforcement Of Federal Gun Measures
” The bill co-sponsored by state Sen. Don Shooter, four other senators and several members of the House of Representatives would bar enforcement of new federal laws affecting semi-automatic firearms or high-capacity magazines. It also makes any federal official trying to enforce such laws guilty of a felony and allows the state Attorney General to defend anyone prosecuted for violating federal gun laws if the gun was made in Arizona, among other provisions.
Wednesday’s Senate Public Safety Committee debate pitted minority Democrats who believe the bill is unconstitutional against Republicans opposed to what they call an overreaching federal government. An identical bill has been introduced in the House, which also has seen several other gun-related bills introduced since the session began Jan 14.”

They are simple measures meant to protect the country. They are common sense and will save lives.
By passing these laws, Wyoming and Arizona are risking the lives of all their citizens. Sad to see that Arizona has not learned it’s lesson after one of their congresswomen was shot by a psycho carrying a legal gun.

I hear her playing that same old song”

Keep living your deluded dreams where guns save lives and you need a high capacity mag and Assault weapon to defend against the “bad guy” (Who also has a legal gun).

Common Sense according to who ? The laws being proposed would have had zero impact on the Gifford shooting . She was shot with hand guns not “assault weapons” . I’m afraid that you are the one who is living in a dream world . I know that , given your line of reasoning expressed in just this short comment that I would not care to have you as the arbiter of ” common sense ” for the rest of us .
