In Alaska we passed "HB 69 - Exempts Firearms from Federal Regulation" This was signed into law by or governor.
Exempts firearms, firearm accessories, and ammunition possessed in Alaska from any federal firearm regulation, whereas current law only exempts firearms manufactured in the state (Sec. 2).
Authorizes the state attorney general to defend any citizen of Alaska who is prosecuted by the United States government in regards to federal law that regulates firearms (Sec. 4).
Classifies the enforcement of any federal law that restricts firearms in the following ways as a Class C felony (Sec. 5):
Limits the ownership of a semi-automatic firearm or firearm magazine; or Requires the registration of a firearm, firearm accessory, or magazine.
Alaska is fucking awesome
Luis Martin
God Bless Alaska.
Ryan Reed
I always wanted to live there.
It's surprisingly difficult to get accepted.
Jason Hill
What?
Jeremiah Roberts
How is Alaska overall compared to the rest of the US?
I've always found it extremely comfy and loved the scenery.
Easton Allen
>How is Alaska overall compared to the rest of the US?
It's like living 10 years behind the times in some things. What's weird is when i go to the deep south, like Alabama, they always go "you're from Alaska?? WOW!!"
Landon Rivera
Wicker v Wheat has held that intrastate commerce is still regulated by the federal govt. This has been settled law for 70 years.
For some reason dumbshit conservatives are trying to do this 'intrastate firearms company' thing in a number of states.
One of my old professors is being paid to lobby this retarded issue in Kansas.
Robert Wood
Can't say that would bother me. As long as I don't deal with niggers and annoying leftists on a regular basis, I'm all set.
Justin Martinez
Cool gaem nice graphics
David Morris

Jose Fisher
Noice one, Alaska.
I've often considered the possibility of taking refuge there, but it's just so damn far away.
Nolan Jones
>tfw not Alaskan God damnit.
Dylan Morgan
thanks for the wallpaper
Jacob Anderson
If I go to USA one day, it's the first place I want to visit.
Leo Nelson
Alaska and Hawaii are so far away from most of us that encountering someone from there is a surprise. Met one person from Alaska in 29 years.
Henry Walker
Hey I live in alaska also
Leo Powell
is there anything stopping other red states from doing this as well it was passed 2013, so the idea is still something new you know other governors are looking at how this turnsout
Ayden Flores
>Wicker ahahhaha and did you read the actual justification? it's completely illiterate. it's one of the jewiest ideas ever presented in a blog post by some fucking chump third-rate writer, except in the form of a court decision.
"hurrr we regulate interstate commerce, we got us a clause for it, therefore we regulate things that affect that too"
"if you do business inside your state that's still interstate commerce even though [slurping back snot] the definition of interstate commerce is across state lines"
"thats cuz you're affecting it by not engaging in it otherwise you would have engaged in it" [air-sucking noises]
Connor Lopez
If I were surrounded by polar bears I would want an AR-15 as well.
Parker Ward
Hopefully Montana follows. Those libshits out by the colleges be damned.
Colton Mitchell
Make Alaska Canada Again
Kevin Hill
Ok. I delivers.
Liam Brown
>Indians not gonna happen
Zachary Roberts
make Canada like alaska
Connor King
I'd tap pocahontas on the left.
Evan Price
Alaskan currently living in Japan. Fuck yeah!
Daniel Nguyen
I've never even met an Alaskan IRL and, living in NYC, I've met people from at least 50 different countries.
Julian White
By the time my dream is fulfilled and i live in Alaska, it will be filled with shitskins
Dominic Allen
>I've never even met an Alaskan IRL Gotta suck IRL
Luis Kelly
It's a pretty empty gesture, considering that federal law trumps state law.
And, unlike a little bit of weed, the feds take firearm violations very fucking seriously.
Nathaniel Nguyen
Alaska seems better every day, too bad I live on the east coast and have no way of moving there
Mason Evans
>Federal law Trumps state law
It's illegal for the federal to supersede the state isn't it?
Landon Cooper
Only when it's convenient
Jordan Jenkins
>the federal to supersede the state isn't it?
Not in America. The Supremacy Clause in Article VI of the Constitution specifically says that where federal and state law are in conflict, federal law wins.
(Of course, it then becomes a matter of enforcement. So, like legal weed in Colorado - they're breaking federal law, but Obama has issued an order for the feds not to worry about it. But they could go in there and start arresting people any time they wanted)
Adam Johnson
Wow. Your government gives that little a fuck about your laws and your constitution that they pick and choose when to apply them.
I think that's why you are loosing. The right wing actually cares about freedom and the constitution, whereas the left can pick and choose as to best serve their interests.
Benjamin Thompson
Yes. Lack of the rule of law is a major problem here.
But the governments are not monolithic. The local sherif could start arresting the federal agents who came to arrest the stoners, for instance.
Wyatt Reed
alaska confirmed most free state
Owen Cruz
I'm moving there to shoot an Ar-15 and give bears PTSD
Brandon Diaz
>The local sherif could start arresting the federal agents Can Sup Forums be realistic for once? The feds get the final say no matter what.
Mason Murphy
is climate change real?
is all the snow melting and the ice bears dead?
Charles Jenkins
I think that is awesome too, more Americans killing themselves
Adrian Lewis
I didn't say otherwise, but there's nothing wrong with some healthy tactical pushback by the states against an out of control federal government that the states themselves created in the first place.
Gabriel White
Interesting. At that point we are talking a covert civil war though. The feds would subvert and eventually seize the state. Of course that would end up in an uprising int he south, but Alaska is isolated.
He isn't saying it WILL happen, you fucking moron, he is saying it can happen. How fucking ironic that leafs make fun of American education when you are unequivocally the dumbest posters on this site BY FAR.
Nicholas Turner
That's some clear and convincing advocating you got there, I'm sure it will hold in the Supreme Court. I'm sure no one's ever attempted to wrest that power out of the hands of the federal legislation and back to the hands of the state in the 60 years since. Hell, even the conservative dissenting side of the verdict upholding Obamacare upheld that the federal state had the authority to regulate interstate commerce (they merely dissented that the state could not compel an individual to buy a product and rejected the majority's opinion that re-interpreted the ACA as a tax).
Sorry, buddy, but federal law preempts state law and you can whine whine whine til the cows come home, no court will ever undermine it just because Alaska wants to be special.
Ryan Barnes
Sorry, intrastate commerce*, as relating to an interstate economy (as interpreted in Wicker).
Leo Cook
The States are not allowed to regulate the federal government at all. Federal agents have complete immunity from state prosecution for their actions under federal law. This is old law. Like, from the early nineteenth century.
If you mean that he could do it unconstitutionally , sure. But the feds would be in their rights to arrest that guy too or to use the national guard to break their guy out of prison, etc.
Jason Carter
Has it even been challenged? I think his point was that the ruling won't hold up in court.
We can at least hope that it doesn't.
Ayden Gutierrez
Don't have to prosecute, just arrest.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not advocating for cowboy heaven, and I think it would be a poor idea for either side to let the situation descend to that level of tomfoolery. But it's still a threat that could be backed up.
Just like you'll notice these new state laws are mainly to do not with contravening what the feds said as much as simply banning the expected enforcement.
And then if we're talking federal regulation, well, now that brings up the question of whether those regulations are in and of themselves meaningful.
Levi Miller
fpbp
Ryan White
>is climate change real? no
Owen Price
>citizen of Alaska you guys issue citizenship now do you?
Oliver Young
I imagine itd be exactly the same as you are now, but you have the privilege of getting shot
Kayden Clark
Is Alaska the whitest state? I can't imagine any black people wanting to move there, they can't stand cold.
Benjamin Wood
I have an intense desire to inseminate the one on the left, forcefully if necessary. Now I understand why indians do so much raping.
Kevin Thompson
go guns grow on trees in alaska?
Evan Hughes
>What is federal preemption?
Ethan Kelly
Hey Alaskabro can you upload pics like above but without weapons? Just wanna get some nice pics for wallpapers and whatnot.
Joshua Gonzalez
>In Alaska we passed "HB 69 - Exempts Firearms from Federal Regulation" This was signed into law by or governor.
state laws can't trump federal laws fucktard.
Asher Edwards
What about full autos?
Joseph Nguyen
everything in America above Nevada is cold as fuck. And even there its probably cold as shit in winter. I don't think I could handle anything other than Southern Cali or maybe somewhere in the South on the coast
its 18 degrees in my room atm and im freezing
Samuel Bailey
NYC is a shit hole. I could go work there and make a killing, but it's not worth it. Fuck that hell hole, I don't even want to visit family there anymore.
The only time I enjoyed it was when I was too young to realize what a shit hole it was and then when I partied at pacha and got shit faced drunk on the weekends.
Brody Cooper
How do I move to Alaska OP?
Connor Perez
except it totally can
Lucas Miller
watch 10 minutes of natgeo (reality shows). all of the natives are drunks living in wooden shacks and for some reason alcohol seems to be banned everywhere.
Carson Turner
kek i start sweating at 23 c
Aiden Diaz
for me its 27
21-24 is ultimate comfy range
+30 is too hot
Jack Morales
well they have to fight off shapeshifting extraterrestrials with something
Xavier Green
Fuck off leaf
Isaiah Russell
Not hot till 37 5+ is comfy -5 is too cold
Live in Armidale during winter, Narromine during summer.
Jayden White
>Limits the ownership of a semi->automatic firearm or firearm >magazine; or >Requires the registration of a >firearm, firearm accessory, or >magazine.
Huh?
Kevin Reed
I can't tell if you bogans are joking or not. 23+ is uncomfortable at best. 30+ is basically inhospitable.
Noah Cooper
The feds can't ban or register those items in Alaska.
William Walker
>30c is hot Thats....86F, thats not even fucking hot. Its been around 35-37c here all summer and it gets around -30c to -25c in the winter. I live in west virginia. Not the mountain side either. >leaf
Christian Green
States' rights is a big deal here. Other states would likely join the one being subverted
Joshua Barnes
cheq'd
Levi Nelson
>semi-auto Select fire is conveniently left out
Connor Young
Not kek/10
Kayden Torres
Why are you pointing that gun at Canada? I thought Alaska and Canada was tight.
Christian Nelson
Alaska is full
Jonathan Ramirez
several states have those laws but they have yet to be tested
Aiden Turner
That's really nice. It also shows that you don't have any idea how government worked.
Article VI, Clause 2 of the constitution establishes federal laws as the supreme law of the land.
Brody Parker
Alaska is non white as fuck but a lot of the non whites are Indians living in the middle of nowhere
Christopher Phillips
And then whatever state officer made the arrest gets hauled off to federal court for impeding a federal investigation.
Michael Brown
Which works great, until the state decides the feds aren't their feds anymore.
Hudson Gutierrez
Oh, Alaska....
if you weren't so damned cold and snowy all the time, i'd move to you!
Austin Morales
yeah.... what???
"accepted"?
Alaska is a state, not a fucking university. Besides all that, when's the last time YOU guys cared about being "accepted" somewhere before you invade, or for the law for that matter?
Joseph Cox
No, but states can tell their authorities not to enforce fedreal statutes, forcing the feds to send enforcers, which they won't cuz it's fucking Alaska.
Colton Sullivan
Yes, a Alaska is freezing all year, don't move there. Stay away.
Andrew Parker
We've already been to that movie before.
The south lost. Atlanta was burned to the ground. Not enough Dixies were hung for their treason.
David Edwards
Idaho has the same provision, as does Montana.
GUN GRABBERS BTFO.
Alexander Martin
Alaska:shithole cities,drunken inuit degenerates,mentally ill population,sarah palin,people that laughably believe they can write a law exempting them from federal and it will hold up in federal court.
John Edwards
Do Ruskies try to get silly with your borders, Alaska bros?
Leo Fisher
We live in a global world, with a number of countries who'd gladly contribute to the fall of America, and the most massive anti federal government sentiment since that time.
Hudson Nelson
The only thing youll be surrounded by is homeless eskimos.
Nathan Wilson
I'd say it's time for a rematch.
Matthew Edwards
alaska is pretty much its own country since barely anyone lives there to the point where you can see russia from their house, it can do whatever the fuck it wants
Isaiah Gonzalez
>marijuana legalized >guns protected Feds can get fucked.
Amendments 2, 10, and 14 nigga.
Connor Thomas
chequed
Connor Richardson
Technically this.
Too bad we live in a nation of pussies.
Ethan Carter
But when the firearms violations number in the millions, the feds have no choice but to comply.
