Lawmakers in Arizona, Michigan, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Washington state and Virginia have all sponsored legislation prohibiting the enforcement of federal laws and regulations on firearms, ammunition and firearms accessories produced and sold within their state. Alaska, Arizona, Idaho, Montana, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah and Wyoming passed similar bills in 2009 and 2010 well before the shootings in Sandy Hook or Colorado.

What legislators would sponsor a bill like this? I've attempted to contact Sen. Emily Cain and Rep. Jeffrey Gifford with no responses to the idea at all. No surprise. It seems Sen. King will support a good part of the new people control legislation making its way to the Senate. No surprise there either.

We won't win a fight being on the defensive. It's past time to go on the offense.
