@AK107DX Yeah good point. I read the language since it's now in my state's legislature. Apparently it applies to NFA weapons that are not machineguns. So silencers, SBR's etc. would be deregulated.

@SKUSMC In case they try to reinstate the Assault Weapons ban I guess. I live in one of those shitty states that kept the ban.
-
The act doesn't apply to NFA weapons such as machine guns etc. so I have to ask, what practical good is it?

AMERICA, FUCK YEAH!

man, seems to me that the FEDs already had thought about this happening. they're ahead of the states. Only if the states take back their powers will we see a dramatic change in America. All those people who voted for change... This is your real change and its not going to happen unless you get involved. If all states could unite in this cause then maybe we could get something going towards change.

Lastly, federal agents have Congressional authority to arrest a sheriff if a sheriff runs his department in a corrupt manner to include matters such as theft or bribery by the sheriff pertaining to official matters of the office of the sheriff. Various violations of this nature whereby a sheriff or any public official can be arrested are found in federal law - United States Title Code 18.

United States Code 18242 gives federal agents the authority to investigate or arrest a sheriff for color of law violation which is basically a sheriff abusing his authority and/or depriving an US citizen their civil rights. Basically this federal statute gives the feds the authority to keep local law enforcement officials in check from abusing their office to deprive American citizens of their Constitutional rights.

A federal agent has power over the sheriff when it pertains to matters of federal law and federal matters. As a general rule of thumb federal agents do not get involved in county law enforcement (sherff) although some states do give some federal agents authority to enforce state statutes. Federal agents have and do investigate sheriffs when sheriffs abuse their office and violate federal color of law statutes and federal agents investigate sheriffs over civil rights violations.

@A0n79fRtW Show me the law that states a federal agent has authority over a sheriff.

As conservatives we need to know how the government actually legally works instead of someones opinion. The notion that a sheriff is more powerful than the feds because he is a elected official is legally incorrect. Governors and mayors are elected officials but they also cannot stop the feds from enforcing federal law. I would like for someone to show me actual law and not opinion where a sheriff has the authority to stop a federal agent in their county from enforcing federal law.
1)The federal Congress uses the 17th amendment as an excuse to usurp State Sovereignty!
2)The federal Courts have "claimed for themselves" the right to interpret the Constitution!
This is what has happened:
The federal courts and the united states congress have violated the constitution by "circumventing the requirment of a constitutional convention" to change constitutional law.
That is not empathetic...
THAT IS TYRANNY!
Wake up, America!

Towards the end, they discuss the "teeth" of the TN bill. If the legislature required the State Police to intervene in Federal enforcement (arresting the ATF agents) that would be a significant set of teeth and force the issue. In any case, it's about time States re-discover their Constitutional rights.
