It's about damn time the states started to take back power from the Federal Government that is rightfully theirs.

This will be unenforcable.  Federal law trumps State.

Supremacy clause of the constitution.

Yepperonies, though federal agents aren't supposed to using personal firearms on duty anyways, at least for the FBI and ICE.  Either way, agents will be able to sue in federal court over any attempted enforcement of this law.

And they will lose. According to the Constitution, the States trump the Fed.

Actually the constitution divides powers into state federal and shared.  Anywhere the fed government has power they win.

Nope. Over the past 2 centuries, the Supreme Court has tipped the scales in favor of the federal government. McCulloch v. Maryland. Article IV Clause 2 of the Constitution. Read about them.

That said the current court may overturn, the law as this is the most political the court has EVER been.

True dat. Roberts is as activist as it gets for a Chief Justice. The last decision... ugh. I don't think Roberts has ever heard the word "precedent".
