h/t to Bearhawk from OCDO for this: (http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/showthread.php?110103-WY-response-to-the-Obama-Administration-s-2A-assault-that-we-should-push-for-in-MI)
WY state rep Kendell Kroeker has sponsored and introduced HB0104, the Firearms Protection Act. It basically is using the 10th Amendment to nullify anything the Feds come up with in regards to gun control. Some highlights read:
"6 (b) Any official, agent or employee of the United
7 States government who enforces or attempts to enforce any
8 act, order, law, statute, rule or regulation of the United
9 States government upon a personal firearm, a firearm
10 accessory or ammunition that is owned or manufactured
11 commercially or privately in Wyoming and that remains
12 exclusively within the borders of Wyoming shall be guilty
13 of a felony and, upon conviction, shall be
14 subject to imprisonment for not less than one (1) year
15 and one (1) day or more than five (5) years, a fine of not
16 more than five thousand
17 dollars ($5,000.00), or both.
...goes on to say
2 (d) Any federal law, rule, regulation or order
3 created or effective on or after January 1, 2013 shall be
4 unenforceable within the borders of Wyoming if the law,
5 rule, regulation or order attempts to:
6
7 (i) Ban or restrict ownership of a semi-
8 automatic firearm or any magazine of a firearm; or
9
10 (ii) Require any firearm, magazine or other
11 firearm accessory to be registered in any manner.
12
13 Section 2. This act is effective immediately upon
14 completion of all acts necessary for a bill to become law
15 as provided by Article 4, Section 8 of the Wyoming
16 Constitution."
