"Are you next? There are literally thousands of reasons why they can arrest you under Federal laws. We believe that Vermont law enforcement should not be enforcing these.

This is the attitude that should be shared by ALL gun owners!

"Chapter 1, Article 5th. Internal police

That the people of this state by their legal representatives, have the sole, inherent, and exclusive right of governing and regulating the internal police of the same."
