What a load of sh*t. Too bad you couldn't figure out how to make the link work. Are you an ex-roustabout with several missing fingers or what? You sure sound like you got hit in the head a few extra times while not wearing your hard hat, too.
THE BLAZE

Any future federal laws passed by Congress or executive orders imposed by President Barack Obama aimed at restricting the ownership of semi-automatic guns or limiting the size of magazines will be considered illegal in Texas — that is, if a newly proposed bill makes it through the Texas legislature.
GOP Rep. Steve Toth said he plans to introduce the “Firearms Protection Act,” which calls for felony criminal charges to be filed against any federal official who tries to enforce new gun-restricting regulations in the Lone Star State.
(Steve Toth for Texas)

“If a federal official comes into the state of Texas to enforce the federal executive order, that person is subject to criminal prosecution,” Toth told 1200 WOAI’s Joe Pags Tuesday.
Federal officials would face a $50,000 fine and up to five years in prison for attempting to enforce a federal gun ban, according to Toth.
“It is our responsibility to push back when those laws are infringed by King Obama,” Toth said.
More from WOAI:
Toth says he will file his measure after speaking with the state’s Republican Attorney General, Greg Abbott, who has already vowed to fight any federal measures which call for restrictions on weapons possession.
Toth concedes that he would welcome a legal fight over his proposals.
“At some point there needs to be a showdown between the states and the federal government over the Supremacy Clause,” he said.
The Supremacy Clause is the portion of the Constitution which declares that federal laws and statutes are ‘the supreme law of the land.’
The proposed legislation comes less than a week after Wyoming lawmakers proposed a similar measure to protect the state from future federal gun control laws.
Do you think Wyoming and Texas are within their rights to protect their states from federal gun control measures?

No can do, asswipes. The money is too easy. Fleecing the natives is too much fun, too. The only problems I run into are from others who have moved here. They're smart.

Federal Gun control laws may be found in violation of the 2nd Amendment, but that is not a Supremacy Clause issue.

If the federal law survives a Constitutional challenge and it is just a dispute between a "legitimate" federal law and a state law, the federal law wins.

This is just idiot grandstanding by Toth. Here's hoping he gets booted in the next election.
