Is this like the "Castle Doctrine" nonsense that NRA was foisting on us years ago?

Why can't gun owners? The Federal Govt. Med marijuana is what started it, it looked bad kicking in the doors of Grannies who we're using it for glaucoma, chemo patients, etc. Then you got a President who stated if it was legal under state law they wouldn't prosecute. Get a Pres who says that about suppressors and you have a shot. It also helps immensely to get over half the country who thinks something should be legalized, and have 1 in 10 of the populous that use that something on a regular basis and 1 in 5 in the last year. And a majority of the populous that have at least tried it.It's working with pot across the nation. It can work with suppressors in Texas and here.
If the stoners can get this done, why can't gun owners?

So a State trooper, local sheriff, or police officer would not arrest you for having a suppressor as long as you were not committing a crime? Say just shooting at a public range without a tax stamp.The difference is existing law.
Marijuana is illegal at the state level. States can repeal the law and make it legal at the state level, but can't do anything about the federal level. See: Supremacy Clause.
Suppressors are not illegal at the state level (here). There's no law to repeal.

Which is all the more reason to do this. Expose this for both reasons.Because the feds hate firearms owners, want to appear tough on everything firearms....and all smoke pot.
...OK, most.
The law should be a declaration that Indiana does not recognize the Federal law and that the feds shall not enforce suppressor regulation, in Indiana.The difference is existing law.

Supressors for now, eventually more of the NFA.
Yes!Then you just want pandering, because such a law is unenforceable and unconstitutional. See Article 6 of the US Constitution.
2nd Amendment says the federal government cannot infringe the right to keep and bear arms. They have multiple times and it is unconstitutional.Then you just want pandering, because such a law is unenforceable and unconstitutional. See Article 6 of the US Constitution.
The remedy for that is found in a combination of Articles I, II and II of the Constitution. It does not reside in the states according to Article VI.2nd Amendment says the federal government cannot infringe the right to keep and bear arms. They have multiple times and it is unconstitutional.
Are we really talking about firing on Fort Sumter again? Not happening.The law should be a declaration that Indiana does not recognize the Federal law and that the feds shall not enforce suppressor regulation, in Indiana.

Suppressors are in the NFA as a substitute for handguns. Originally handguns were in the NFA, when they were taken out, suppressors were put in.I want every one of your average gun owners who ever missed their earpro once to say; "Why are suppressors on the NFA?"
2nd Amendment says the federal government cannot infringe the right to keep and bear arms. They have multiple times and it is unconstitutional.
Regulating firearms is not allowed by the federal government per the Constitution. That would be left to the states. Our Constitution reads basically the same as the US Constitution so our state is infringing on our rights with any laws that infringe on ownership. Having to get fingerprints and approval is an infringement.You either believe in the Constitution or you don't. "But they did it first" isn't much of a legal or ethical argument, IMO.
Great news because I presume that if they win other states can do the same. Seems to me that would break the log jam and potentially head us to full legalization. It is total lunacy they are still NFA.Texas suppressor law marches on…
