The resistance is growing

Earlier I mentioned legislation that has been proposed in Wyoming that would nullify any ban on any semi-automatic firearm or any magazine regardless of how many rounds it can hold. Anyone trying to enforce such a ban, including any Federal agent or officer, would face arrest.

Unsurprisingly, similar legislation has been proposed in Texas.

And in related news, Sheriff Denny Peyman of Jackson County, Kentucky, and Sheriff Tim Mueller of Linn County, Oregon, have stated that they will not enforce, nor allow to be enforced in their counties, any legislation or executive order that violates the Constitution and requires confiscation of weapons.

The latter is interesting because Oregon, as a whole, isn't a terribly conservative state. However, as with its neighbor to the north, I expect that different regions have different political compositions. In any case, hats off to both of these fine gentlemen and patriots. May more and more sheriffs and other law enforcement officials across the nation follow their lead.
