Without federal disaster aid, Kentucky would be bankrupt. Not just last year, but every year past and every year yet to come. So how do the repugs in the state senate express their gratitude and hope for continued federal largesse? By telling the federal government to fuck off and die.
Jack Brammer at the Herald:
Kentucky would not enforce any federal law or regulation made after Jan. 1, 2013, if it bans or restricts ownership of a semi-automatic firearm or requires gun registration under a bill a state Senate committee approved Thursday.I say "repugs," although the guntard dems in the state house are likely to jump on board this train of stupidity and I doubt either speaker Greg Stumbo or Governor Steve "Cowardly Waste of Oxygen" Beshear will stop them.
The measure is needed to protect the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which gives people the right to keep and bear arms, said Sen. Jared Carpenter, R-Berea, who sponsored the measure.
Sen. Kathy Stein, D-Lexington, rejected that argument, saying it is Senate Bill 129, not federal gun regulations proposed in the aftermath of the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting, that would violate the U.S. Constitution.
