Remember When I Said The Tennessee Firearms Freedom Act Wouldn't Fly…

By Duane Lester - - 8 Comments -

I hate to say I told you so, but here’s a nice letter from the ATF to Tennessee.

If you don’t want to read it all, I’ll summarize.

Dear Tennessee:

How are you? I am fine.

All your guns are belong to us.

Best wishes,

The ATF

    So this is their argument that : "your act seeks to keep all your stuff from our laws because it will not leave the state, but our law supersedes all state laws"?

    How does that even make sense? that's just a bully saying "because I said so". that doesn't mean that a. it's correct or b. it's moral.

    hey guys, you all owe me money because in my crazed brain, i'm dictator for life, and all your dollars are belong to me.

      Good point. Just because some unelected bureaucrats say that the people of TN don't have rights, doesn't mean that it's so. If we're waiting for the ATF or some judges to give us permission to exercise our rights, we're going to be waiting a long, long time.

      But, as Gary Marbut – author of the Montana Firearms Freedom Act – told me in a recent interview, people who are serious about this realize that the courts and the obama administration aren't going to be supportive. It's going to take courage to say no – to simply nullify and resist these unconstitutional laws. Enough states getting on board with this is going to make federal enforcement pretty tough.

      Like Real ID – which was resisted on a state-by-state level.

        Yeah, the 'states' rights' movement is gaining speed, and I think this is the first step in regaining our federal government.
