Looks like he proposed it. Writing my representative now! The actual "weight" of bills such as this will have to be tried to be seen, but for each state that passes something like this, the better a chance we have as a nation rebelling against gun control measures.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - January 16, 2013

State Representative Joe Carr 48TH Legislative District Lascassas, TN.

State Representative Joe Carr, from Tennessee's 48th District filed legislation Tuesday, House Bill 0042, that would charge any Federal agent with a Class A Misdemeanor for enforcing or attempting to enforce a federal law, statute, rule, regulation or executive order that bans, restricts or requires the registration of any semi automatic firearm, firearm accessory or ammunition.

"In light of recent comments and actions taken by President Obama and Vice President Biden, I believe it is necessary that Tennessee proactively promote, maintain and defend Tennessee's sovereignty guaranteed to it in the 10th Amendment of the Constitution. Additionally this most blatant assault on the 2nd Amendment by the Obama Administration is a systematic effort to disarm the law biding citizens of the United States. The 2nd Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights which was intended to protect the individual and the states from the tyranny of government," stated Representative Carr.

Carr also said, "The 2nd Amendment is not meant just for hunters, it specifically states that 'A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed', therefore, the Federal government shall not through law or executive order infringe upon our Constitutional-given rights as citizens of the United States and the Great State of Tennessee."

Recently, Carr announced the formation of the 10th Amendment Caucus, a group he co-founded with State Representative Judd Matheny from Tennessee's 47th District. The Caucus will be focused on advancing the Constitutional requirement for states to maintain, promote and defend the 10th Amendment. Additionally, Carr is the architect and author of almost all Illegal Immigration laws in Tennessee. Due to his efforts, Tennessee has some of the strongest enforceable immigration laws in the United States.

"Ban or restrict ownership of a semi automatic firearm, firearm
accessory, or ammunition; or"

 

Why say "semi automatic" only?

 

Better to just say "any currently legal firearm or firearm accessory" or something.

 

Off top of my bean, the Fiend-Stein list will apparently include bans against

 

- "revolver shot shell" guns like SW and Taurus makes

- shotgun capacity is limited to 5 shells even in pump models

- +10 mags are made for certain bolt guns,

 

I'm sure there are some other examples.

I just got on here to post the link to Rep. Cares bill but looks like someone beat me to it. Lets hope there's enough to push it through.

That was supposed to say Rep. Carr. I fell victim to auto correct.

Emails sent through NWYC. Told them I'd like to see consequences upped from misdemeanor to felony. Infringing the Constitution is no small trespass.

I thought the same thing... But I had to make myself remember that this law has to pass. While a perfectly suitable punishment to you and I, some that this has to pass by may think it to be " to harsh" and fail the bill because of it. Personally I wish we had a special prison for such traitors. Hey a guy can dream huh.

Very true Luke
