From the Anchorage Daily News: House Speaker Mike Chenault says federal law enforcement officers should be arrested in Alaska if they attempt to enforce any future federal law banning personal possession of assault rifles or large ammunition clips or if they attempt to register any Alaska firearm.
On Wednesday, just as President Obama was announcing new firearm-control initiatives in the aftermath of the child murders at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn., Chenault offered his countermeasure in House Bill 69.His bill would extend the reach of a law passed in 2010 by asserting that any firearm, firearm accessory or ammunition possessed by anyone in Alaska was not subject to federal law. The 2010 law only covered firearms and ammo manufactured in Alaska and it already was of dubious constitutional validity, though it's never been challenged because no firearm is known to have been manufactured here since then.
In addition to adding the word "possession" to the 2010 law, Chenault's bill declares that any "federal statute, regulation, rule or order" taking effect after passage of House Bill 69 would be invalid in Alaska if it restricted semi-automatic firearms or magazines. The bill also declares invalid any future registration scheme involving firearms, magazines or other firearm accessory.
Any federal agent who attempted to enforce those future federal laws would be subject to prosecution by the state on misdemeanor charges. http://www.adn.com/2013/01/16/2755382/federal-agents-would-face-arrest.html If Congress goes overboard on anti-gun regulations, which I kind of doubt and that the Fed's come after people's guns illegally or if the Fed's start to violate state's rights, this could be the start of the new U.S. Civil War.Will the war be like the North and South, in the days of Abraham Lincoln, but more likely, the war will be fought in the courtrooms and then a war between local and state governments vs the federal government. It maybe as simple as the state and local governments refusing to assist the fed's in locating the fed's wanted people or assisting at raids by the Fed's police agencies like the DEA and FBI.We see this happening now, but in reverse. For instance the feds are attacking the States in illegal immigration cases and ObamaCare.So, it will be interesting to see what happens in the next 5 years and see how much the Congress and the Obama administration do in regards taking away rights of citizens.
