Well in Nye County our Sheriff already said they will not comply with these new rules AND then an avalanche of other sheriffs said the same thing. Our county commission also passed a resolution against this as well. So far this is looking like a Las Vegas (Clark County) and Reno are the only places that plan to enforce any of these laws. This is Nevada, and rural Nevada will not tolerate it. At least here in Pahrump on any given day you can walk into Walmart and see many people open carrying. They are risking some serious unrest in this state if they push it too far. Already there is a New Nevada movement looking to break us away from Clark County
I live in the desert. Things have gotten in my house from time to time, nothing dangerous so far, but there are snakes. The idea of having nothing to protect myself or my pets is quite disturbing!
The real problem now is that the cancer is metastasizing as the progressives who voted in the liberal lunacy in places like NY, NJ, CT, MA, CA & IL, now flee those locales to avoid the taxes they caused. And then the vote in even more liberal moonbats in the places they fled too.
I could maybe understand if they said “I was wrong and I won’t do it again,” but instead they double down on their lunacy.

Patriots are reminded that when the states ratified the 14th Amendment (14A), they gave Congress the specific power to make peacetime punitive civil laws to discourage state actors from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections.
From the 14th Amendment:
"Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
"Section 5: The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."
In fact, since we're talking about gun rights, the congressional record shows that Rep. John Bingham, the main author of Section 1 of 14A, had included the 2nd Amendment (2A) when he read the Bill of Rights as examples of protections that 14A applies to the states.
John Bingham, Congressional Globe. (See 2nd Amendment (Article II) about in middle of 2nd column.)
The Supreme Court later reflect on Bingham’s clarification by emphasizing that 14A gave Congress the specific power to strengthen constitutionally enumerated protections from abuse by state actors.
“3. The right of suffrage was not necessarily one of the privileges or immunities of citizenship before the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, and that amendment does not add to these privileges and immunities. It simply furnishes additional guaranty for the protection of such as the citizen already had [emphasis added].” —Minor v. Happersett, 1874.

Regardless that PDJT is fighting valiantly for us patriots, making America great again despite Congress, we’re still being oppressed by a corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Congress that has a track record for not lifting a finger to protect citizens’ enumerated rights from abuse by renegade states, particularly where 1st Amendment freedoms of religious expression and speech are concerned.
The remedy for worthless Democratic and RINO-controlled Congress left over from lawless Obama Administration …
Patriots need to elect new patriot lawmakers in 2020 elections that will not only promise to support PDJT’s vision for MAGA, but will also promise to do its duty to exercise its 14A powers to make punitive laws to discourage the states from abridging constitutionally enumerated rights, 2A protections in this example.
Remember in November 2020!
MAGA!
