FINALLY !!! Some Americans are starting to show some back bone ,Stand UP !
New
legislation in the Texas State legislature, sponsored by Steve Toth
(R-Dist. 15), looks to stop Texas law enforcement officials from
confiscating so-called “assault weapons” and high capacity magazines.
The legislation is called the Firearm Protection Act.
Toth’s proposal would create a Class A misdemeanor for police officers enforcing any new federal gun regulations. It also would establish cause for the state attorney general to sue anyone who seeks to enforce new federal gun regulations. It is one of several states-rights measures being offered by conservative state lawmakers nationwide in response to federal gun control proposals.
“There’s a federal law, there’s a 30-round magazine right in front of you – what do I do?” Toth said in an interview.
Toth, in a press release, wrote, “The ‘Firearms Protection Act’ or HB 1076 would make any federal law banning semi-automatic firearms or limiting the size of gun magazines unenforceable within the state’s boundaries. Any municipality, county, or special district trying to enforce a federal gun ban could face monetary holdings by the state and misdemeanor charges under this proposal.”
According to Toth:
Sheriff Richard Mack, a former Arizona sheriff said, “”The federal government is not our boss. If there’s any place that that’s applicable and true, it’s the state of Texas.”
Attorney General Greg Abbot helped draft the bill. Along with Abbott, who has already filed over twenty-three suits against the Federal Government, Representative Toth will continue to stand with other Texans to encouraging the promotion of personal responsibility and liberties while actively guarding against outside parties attempting to erode the freedoms enjoyed by Texans so that the people of Texas may have more confidence in their government.

According to Toth:
The ‘Firearm Protection Act’ would do the following:“I believe this administration has now realized they have woken up a giant. All over the United States, Americans are crying out for something to be done to protect their 2nd Amendment rights. The American people understand this is not just about gun rights, but about all constitutional rights. They understand once you compromise one Constitutional right, all others can be in jeopardy”, said Representative Toth.
• Supports and protects our local sheriffs and law enforcement officers working hard to protect Texan’s 2nd Amendment Rights
• Sends a clear message to Washington by supporting and protecting Texans from the Federal Administrations unconstitutional overreach
• Addresses local Texans concerns for their personal safety
