Oklahoma Using Tenth Amendment to Further the Second

The Oklahoma House Public Safety Committee has passed to the floor House Bill 3157, which is an amendment to 21 O.S. 2001, Section 1289.2.  It adds the following paragraph:

The Legislature further finds that the citizens of Oklahoma shall not be required to participate in any international, state or federal firearms registration program nor shall any firearm lawfully owned and possessed by a citizen of this state be subject to confiscation unless such firearm has been used for unlawful purposes in violation of the Oklahoma Statutes.

This bill, if passed, will be effective November 1, 2010.  It is obviously in response to the Federal proposal that the United States signs on to a treaty with the UN regarding international firearms registration.

Call your Representatives and Senators and let's get this passed!
