Voldemort and the TN Firearms Freedom Act

[Chucktshoes]

Just as a question of curiosity, how would the TN Firearms Firearms Act affect the enforcement of a the federal law by state agents such as MNPD? I know he is an FFL/SOT and that the suppressor was legally owned under those rules, but what if the officers had opened up the case and the suppressor had "Made in TN" stamped on it? Would the officers be correct for effecting an arrest for a federal statute that is in conflict with the state statutes that they are commissioned to enforce? While most agree that the TFFA is unenforceable against federal agents, would it not have an impact on state commissioned LEO?

Good question. It would probably get more traction than the "violation" of poor Lenny's civil rights. I'm guessing the city/state is smart enough not to go there.

Good Lord, I hope I didn't just give him any ideas. :lol:

Leonard's a douchetard but he's not dumb.  To push it under the TFFA he would have to run afoul of the BATFE.  Since he is an FFL holder i highly doubt that he wants to do anything that would provide them  with just cause to yank it.  He couldnt sue if they pulled it for a good reason.

Personally he is the BEST candidate to test the TFFA and see if it stands up.

Just think, if he tests it and it holds up against the feds, we win by having a legal precedent. If he tests it and loses and gets locked up for real finally, we win by not having to deal with his shenanigans anymore. Win/Win situation
