HB42 Criminalizing Feds for Denying 2nd Amendment Right to Tennesseans
joecarr48.com ^ | Jan 16, 2013 | Representative Joe Carr

Posted on 01/17/2013 7:26:33 AM PST by EXCH54FE

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.

TREASON - in real-time, pre-meditated, in-your-face, UNQUESTIONED, abetted, unchecked, continuous, ongoing...

“We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” - Barack Obama

Representation? ZERO

It should be a FELONY with Mandatory Prison of not less than 10 years.

I will need to send a note of appreciation to Representative Carr. However someone needs to tell this: "Due to his efforts, Tennessee has some of the strongest enforceable immigration laws in the United States." to our local fast food places.

I think a Class A Misdemeanor is fine. It’s kinda hard to follow orders if the locals will arrest you for it. I mean how would that go on their time cards? 20 hr.s in the county jail and misdemeanor conviction(s) aren’t career enhancing -unless your organization if FAIL.

The regime controls D.C., some outlying burbs and a couple of catastrophically dysfunctional, debt-ridden, corrupt metro areas. Beyond that, not so much.

The rebellion grows. This “2nd American revolution” may lead to the Democrats’ downfall.

How novel - reading the constitution in context:

"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’"

[[House Bill 0042, that would charge any Federal agent with a Class A Misdemeanor]]

Class A MISDEMEaNOR? They shoudl be charged with TREASON for attemptign to VIOLATE our RIGHT to own a gun and to protect ourselves agaisnt a governemnt gone rogue on it’s own people- This is a CRIME of the highest order when you FORCE peopel into compliance at the point of a gun- You are attemptign to make a peopel defenseless so that they must then be placed in servitude to a tyrant- there is no stronger form of tyranical treasson agaisnt a free peopel and tenn is only googn to give them a slap on the wrist?
